  2. Fiscal Year - DOI Data

    1. For Fiscal years FY2006-2009, the DOI numbers only included Hazardous Fuel Activities. From FY2013 forward, data includes Hazardous Fuel Activities, Non- National Fire Plan Activities, and Fire Use.

  3. USDA Forest Service Data

    1. For FY2006-2009, the Forest Service numbers included hazardous fuel activities, non-national fire plan activities, and wildfire acres.

    2. Forest Service acres include Recovery Act funded treatments in FY 2009 & 2010.

    3. From FY2013 forward, both DOI and Forest Service report the same data (hazardous fuel activities, non-national fire plan activities, and wildfire).

  4. Data are from the National Fire Plan Operations and Reporting System (NFPORS) and nextgen NFPORS Interior/InFORM Fuel & Post Fire Reporting System (IFPRS)

    1. Fiscal Year Target And Other Reports -- Daily Reports \ DOI Activities and Treatments – All

  5. Other = Treatment Category that describes work involving the use of chemicals, grazing, or biological methods to achieve Fire Management Plans objectives.

  6. Format Table breaks out fuels management accomplishments by WUI designation compared to Categories; including Prescribed Fire/Wildfire types.
