Our Leadership

Washington Prescribed Fire Council

Prescribed fire councils generally maintain diverse membership, representing the various groups that use, research, and regulate prescribed fire activity. In Washington, these groups include state and federal agencies, non-governmental organizations, private industry, tribes, universities, and more. The Council now boasts representatives from over 50 organizations and agencies. We are led by elected officials and a voluntary steering committee.
