After a catastrophic wildfire, quick action must be taken to minimize social, environmental, and economic devastation. Responsive action requires navigating a complex maze of diverse landowners, community  organizations, and numerous local and federal requirements.

Given enough time,  forests eventually heal from wildfire. But  that healing process can take decades, or even centuries. They simply  won’t heal quickly without human intervention. Timely rehabilitation efforts reduce environmental impacts of fire, and can have a positive impact on the community’s social and economic situation in the months  and years after the fire. Perhaps most importantly, quick and effective  rehabilitation efforts improve public health and safety.
