Topography
Describe the topography of the burn area, noting general slope steepness, aspects and topographical
features that may influence fire behavior (e.g. ridges, north-facing slopes, gullies and creeklines).
Weather conditions
Define the target weather conditions required to meet Burn outcomes
Temperature (range, oC) |
Relative humidity (range, %) |
Wind speed (range, km/h) |
Wind direction |
Drought factor (range) |
Fire behavior predictions
Based on the target weather conditions required to meet Burn outcomes, calculate Fire Danger Index and
predicted fire behavior characteristics using McArthur Forest Fire Danger Index.

Fire management resources
Define the fire management resources required to safely conduct the planned burn. Attach an annotated
map of the proposed position of these resources during the burn operation.
Total number of fire ground personnel required |
Number of fire personnel on ignition duties |
Number of fire personnel on fire control duties |
Number of tankers |
Number of slip-on units |
Number of dozers (if required, briefly define role) |
Other support (aerial ignition, spotting aircraft, etc.) (if required, need to define their role) |
Attachments required
Assets and values
Attach an annotated map of the burn area that shows the human-based and natural values that may be
impacted during the burn operation.
Fire ignition and lighting plan
Attach an annotated map of the burn area that shows control lines and the lighting plan.
Resource deployment
Attach an annotated map of the burn area that shows where fire management resources will be deployed
during the burn operation.
