> Risk-related barriers (fear of liability and negative public perceptions) prevent landowners from beginning the burn planning process. Both resource-related barriers (limited funding, crew availability and experience) and regulations-related barriers (poor weather conditions for burning and environmental regulations) prevent landowners from conducting burns, creating a gap between planning and implementation [0] My opinion is that this legislation does not go far enough to address the chronic disregard of action to inhibit these cataclysmic events. I would much rather have the government over-correct and over-allocate instead of taking an incremental approach on this. I do not want to wake up to months of awful quality air or see the forests that I have come to love so much be scorched more than is necessary.
