Successful fire rehabilitation efforts are a critical part of management at a landscape scale.� In areas with large fires and mixed land ownerships, an effective partnership with an �all hands all lands� approach is required. Since the inception of the Utah Watershed Restoration Initiative (WRI), coordinating and accomplishing successful revegetation and long term management of these areas has greatly improved.� The many treatment methods and technologies available can be used to achieve multiple use objectives on a variety of sites and across multiple ownerships.� This presentation will illustrate processes and results of fire rehabilitation efforts pre and post WRI. ��This unique partnership is why Utah is at the forefront in landscape-level restoration and why the pre-WRI way of doing business is a thing of the past.�Paul Briggs graduated from Utah State University in Range Science.� He has spent the last 13 years as the Fuels Program Manager for the BLM�s Color Country District and is currently the acting Cedar City Field Manager.
