| Abstract |
A process is given for balancing air quality and land management goals through smoke management. The process has application wherever land management open burning has the potential to affect air quality, or wherever air quality restrictions may affect the use of fire as a land management practice. Primary focus of the process is upon confirmation of related public and technical issues, then upon developing issue-resolving criteria. This leads to development and evaluation of alternatives. Two are emphasized. One is increased utilization of residues in place of burning. The other emphasized alternative is scheduling of open burning to meet conditions specified for maintaining downwind concentrations of emissions to acceptable levels. Scheduling may also be employed to favor visibility protection and enhancement. Process supporting technical appendices cover development and evaluation of a smoke management program, predicting downwind concentrations, and determining visibility protection needs. Selected references and a glossary are provided. |
