Informative article on Fires
#1
Very informative article with quotes from Brian Oliver, Boulder Fire Rescue's wildland chief. Includes information on fire’s relationship to the ecosystem, humans’ relationship to fire, fire mitigation, and our new normal. In my opinion it’s a good article to read as Jamestown is (considering or beginning?) fire mitigation work with Lefthand Watershed Center. Give it a read.

‘I don’t know what normal is anymore’: Boulder fire chief on wildfire trends, prescribed burns and a firefighting capacity at its limit
Boulder’s years-long mitigation efforts kept the NCAR fire in March 2022 from becoming another disaster, Brian Oliver of Boulder Fire Rescue explains. But fire-proofing ‘really needs to be done at a community scale.’
