Public Announcements

Today much is riding on how Americans perceive fire and the strategic options for dealing with fire. In keeping with the 10-Year Comprehensive Strategy Implementation Plan Update (November 2006) that is one of the guiding elements of the National Fire Plan, the Partners in Fire Education (PIFE) steering committee was created, bringing over 30 stakeholders together from various governmental and non-governmental fire communities to:

Further develop and implement a public education campaign, such as the National Wildland Fire Coordinating Group (NWCG) Wildland Fire: A Natural Process, to complement Smokey Bear’s message of fire safety. The campaign will emphasize fire’s natural role in ecosystems and the benefits of fire management to ecosystems and public health and safety. (Goal 3a, Task 2)
