How and when will information be shared with the field on FPA data needs, how the models work, and the expected workload to use the FPA system?
Project information is shared through the FPA web site (http://www.fpa.nifc.gov/), listserv, and monthly newsletter as well as conference calls with stakeholder groups. The Project’s two Business Leads are actively seeking scheduled agency meetings and workshops to share FPA information and ask for feedback. Please send ideas about these information exchange opportunities to Bonnie Wood (jbwood@fs.fed.us) or Jaymee Fojtik (Jaymee_Fojtik@blm.gov). TOP Will NFPORS be used to pull first and fifth year treatments into FPA for each FPU to assist in displaying potential vegetation changes? If not, has an analysis been done to determine if NFPORS contains all the required data to allow FPUs to use NFPORS data to create the fuels alternatives without obtaining or creating additional data needs? No, NFPORS will not be used to pull first and fifth year treatments. NFPORS does not contain all the required data in order to automate the definition of fuel treatment areas for use in FPA.
