Interim Guidelines for Fuel-Breaks in Southern California

Abstract

These guidelines were initially prepared as part of the FUEL-BREAK Program by Jay R. Bentley, Craig C. Chandler, and Verdie E. White, of the Pacific Southwest Forest and Range Experiment Station, from suggestions by field personnel. The guidelines were reviewed and revised by a committee as follows: Robert H. Blanford, Elmer Chambers, and Len Chatten of the California Division of Forestry; Harvey T. Anderson and R. M. Van Wagner of the Los Angeles County Fire Department; and Lynn R. Biddison and Lloyd R. Britton of the U.S. Forest Service. These guidelines will be subject to revision in 1963.
