Fire Management

Balancing bushfire risk management and fire ecology to protect natural values and improve biodiversity resilience

GET ENSPYRED

Enspyre works with land managers to support bushfire management and planned burning programs, prioritizing ecological outcomes.

We develop bushfire risk management strategies to evaluate risk and ecosystem processes to recommend ecologically sensitive asset protection methodology and encourage lower risk natural vegetation structures.

Our planned burn programs and methodologies are designed to achieve a net positive benefit to the natural environment and are carefully considered to protect habitat and threatened species, promote biodiversity and consider desirable vegetation structure.

We work closely with land managers during and after planning and operational delivery phases to build skills, evaluate objectives and empower ongoing development and improvement.
