This layer represents polygon coverage of Fire Management Zones across the entire State of Victoria, generally on public land. The Fire Management Zone is an area of land which provides a framework for future fuel management programs and whether fire is suitable for managing public land to provide asset protection, bushfire moderation, landscape management or planned burn exclusion.

Abstract:
This layer represents polygon coverage of Fire Management Zones across the entire State of Victoria, generally on public land. The Fire Management Zone is an area of land which provides a framework for future fuel management programs and whether fire is suitable for managing public land to provide asset protection, bushfire moderation, landscape management or planned burn exclusion.

Purpose:
The major intent of this layer is to provide a reference for location of fire management zones and to support generation of information products to support fuel management activities as per the Code of Practice for Fire Management on Public Land (2012). The layer will be widely utilised by DELWP Forest and Fire Planning teams and Fuel Management teams as the principle source of information of Fire Management Zones.

Current Design Issues: The major intent of this layer is to provide a reference for location of fire management zones and to support generation of information products to support fuel management activities as per the Code of Practice for Fire Management on Public Land (2012). This layer will assist in the production of the joint fuel management plan.
