Subject: Contains the results of a review to assess if federal fire management policies are uniform and agencies work together efficiently and effectively to carry out fire management programs across administrative boundaries. The review resulted in the development of unified principles and policies to improve wildland fire response. The report notes that managing wildland fire in the U.S. is increasing in scope and complexity and lists nine key areas that should be improved: the protection of human life, fire impacts on ecosystems, agency organizational climate, fire in areas with hazardous fuel build-ups, management of burnable vegetation, integrating wildfire management into land and resource management, partnerships, cooperation among all levels of government, and structural fire protection
