About this file
This document contains a prescribed fire plan template and details for a federal contract opportunity with the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Omaha. The prescribed fire plan template outlines the required elements for a prescribed burn plan, including cover page information, project objectives, prescribed fire objectives and acceptable results, a project area description with details on size, elevation, slope, fuel model and vegetation, a prescribed fire description with desired flame length and fixed and variable indicators, firing techniques and equipment, pre-burn monitoring, preparation for burning, smoke management, a holding, mop-up and patrol plan, an escape contingency plan, a safety plan and activity hazard analysis, public information and involvement, a communications plan, personnel organization, a cost summary, post-burn evaluation requirements, and various maps and reports. The federal contract opportunity solicitation seeks restoration services at the Garrison Project Native Prairie site, including eliminating existing vegetation, establishing native grasses and forbs, and follow-up maintenance, to be completed through techniques such as controlled burning, mowing, haying, raking, spraying, harrowing, disking, seeding, no-till drilling.
