Since 1979, the province of Alberta has experienced severe timber losses to wildfire. Typically, these losses have occurred due to multiple ignition starts by lightning, followed by several weeks of high to extreme burning conditions. In 1982, following a severe fire outbreak, the need for a province-wide, systematic method to determine Initial Attack Resource requirements and deployment was addressed. the basic concept of the pre-suppression preparedness system was developed and implemented on a trial basis. The objective of this system is to minimize the potential for large fire losses through improved initial attack strategy.
