The fuels options are analyzed as a potential investment in terms of impact on fire behavior that is the result of fuels treatment projects. The changes in fire behavior as a result of each fuels option will affect the outcomes of the Initial Response (IR) and Large Fire Simulators being used in FPA. The fuels option will be combined with an IR option, and a prevention option to form an alternative. FPA will analyze each alternative in terms of their impact on fire starts and fire behavior.
