The Nevada Division of Forestry is dedicated to protecting and enhancing Nevada's ecosystems and communities through effective natural resource stewardship and wildfire management. Their programs focus on natural resource management, wildland fire management, and promoting fire-adapted landscapes to mitigate the risks of catastrophic wildfires. One of their key initiatives is the implementation of prescribed fires, which are carefully planned and controlled applications of fire aimed at achieving land management goals such as fuels reduction and habitat restoration. These efforts not only improve forest health and wildlife habitats but also replicate natural conditions that allow fire-adapted plant species to thrive. Generated from the website
