| E7-5872 | Clarifying Prohibitions for Failure To Maintain Control of Fires That Damage National Forest System Lands | Proposed Rule | The Forest Service is proposing to revise 36 CFR part 261, Prohibitions, to establish a new prohibition for starting and negligently failing to maintain control of a prescribed fire. Proof of criminal negligence is required of this offense. The Forest Service also is proposing to clarify that the prohibition for causing and failing to maintain control of all other fires is a strict liability offense, not requiring proof of criminal intent. In implementing the National Fire Plan, the Forest Service has encouraged adjacent landowners to develop integrated fire management plans for the use of prescribed fire for the restoration and protection of private lands adjacent to National Forest System lands. Without the proposed changes, adjacent landowners might be discouraged from using prescribed fire. | 2007-04-02 | 2007 | 4 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2007/04/02/E7-5872/clarifying-prohibitions-for-failure-to-maintain-control-of-fires-that-damage-national-forest-system | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2007-04-02/pdf/E7-5872.pdf | Agriculture Department; Forest Service | 12,209 | The Forest Service is proposing to revise 36 CFR part 261, Prohibitions, to establish a new prohibition for starting and negligently failing to maintain control of a prescribed fire.
