Abstract

Post-fire planning following major fires in the San Francisco Bay area has identified problems of wildland fuel management and solutions to these problems; however, the failure to carry out many of the fuel management recommendations has led to increasing fire hazard for the urban interface and urban intermix zones. A proposal for a new state agency to oversee fuel management is presented.
