Usage Considerations
The 2015 fire season in Alberta was severe and highly active in terms of the number and intensity of wildfires and the area burned. Agriculture and Forestry commissioned a review of the program, including an evaluation of the Department's performance during the season, in order to consider what could be learned from the events that transpired and to position the program for long term challenges.
