identifying and evaluating ecosystems in properly functioning condition and systems at risk, - providing baseline data and information for project planning, - understanding the role of historical processes and patterns within which current management actions

  • Chapter 15: Wildland Fire
    Chapter 15: Wildland Fire When Everglades National Park was established in 1947, the long-standing NPS policy was to suppress all wildfires in parks, whether caused by lightning or human activity. The NPS was not alone in this; at the time, fire suppression was standard pol- icy for all federal government land managers. NPS fire policies had been developed in the forests of the western states and for the most part echoed the policies of the U.S. Forest Service. The geology and vegetation of South Florida, as well as the region’s cultural attitudes and practices regarding fire, differed sharply from the western experi- ence. Additionally, combating fires with traditional techniques exposed Everglades fire fighters to considerable hardship and danger, because of the region’s solution holes, exposed limestone rock, sawgrass, palmetto, muck, and insects. All of these factors produced a relationship with fire at Everglades National Park that was unique within the Service. The park played a key role in the evolution of national wildland fire pol- icies. Research done in the Everglades by park biologist Dr. Bill Robertson Jr. in the 1950s added much to the general understanding of the role of fire in ecosystems and led to the park’s program of prescribed burning, the first such program in the NPS. The Everglades fire experience then helped to shape what historian Stephen J. Pyne has called fire’s “cultural revolution” in the 1960s and thereafter. In this revolution, the idea that fires should be prevented whenever possible and always fought when they broke out gave way to an understanding that: 1) fire was a part of the natural order, 2) some fires should be allowed to burn, and 3) prescribed burns were often beneficial.

The mission of the Bureau of Reclamation is to manage, develop, and protect water and related resources in an environmentally and economically sound manner in the interest of the American public.

West-Wide Climate Risk Assessment Columbia River Basin Climate Impact Assessment Final Report Prepared for United States Congress Prepared by U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation Policy and Administration Denver, Colorado March 2016 Notes Regarding this West-Wide Climate Risk Assessment – Impact Assessment The Columbia River Basin Impact Assessment is a reconnaissance-level assessment of the potential hydrologic impacts of climate change in the Columbia River Basin. For this study, it was necessary to isolate the impacts of climate change from other changes that may occur within the basin. Therefore, Reclamation has assumed that current water operations by all water management entities in the Columbia River Basin would continue unchanged in the future. This assessment does not consider any operational changes that may or may not be made by basin stakeholders in the future and does not reflect the position of any entity regarding future operational changes.
