This dataset depicts high, moderate, and low zones representing the
severity of damage to the soil caused by a wildfire. Dates of fires
mapped for severity in this layer range from 1999 to 2006. Burn
severity zones define areas where significant increases in erosion and
sedimentation are likely and could result in destructive flooding or
loss of soil productivity. They also propose treatments, which are
designed to mitigate soil movement, calculate the cost of those
treatments, and request the approval of those expenditures.
