No - it’s not the timber industry. Fires are bad fire them. Environmental interests are the main issue. There is always some “compelling” interest that manages to block a planned burn, no matter how niche or how much it might actually help their concern long term.

For example is known that narcos expecting to land a cargo of drugs typically start wildfires at several Km of the landing point. They use that to trick the police to concentrate in the opposite extreme of the map.
