Use of fire in land clearing: Selection and preparation of the area to be cleared by planned application and confinement of fire important
by Keith Arnold, L. T. Burcham, Ralph L. Fenner, R. F. Grah
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
The second of five articles reporting the findings in investigations in the effectiveness, the safety and the cost of the use of controlled burning as a tool for land clearing. No attempt is made to provide one formula for prescribed burning in California; each fire is an individual case to be planned at site of burn.
