Common use of Burning Clause in Contracts

Burning. 1. No fire ignition shall occur in the RMZs and EEZs. Fire ignition shall occur so fire will back its way toward the RMZs and EEZs. 2. PALCO shall only ignite fires on one side of the RMZ at a time if topographic features and/or fuel patterns would increase the likelihood that fires lit on both sides of an RMZ would result in intrusion into the RMZ. 3. Burning is limited to winter, spring and fall when fuel moisture conditions, relative humidity, fuel loading, and atmospheric conditions such as wind are conducive to controlled burning. Tractor piling within THP units, including skid roads, or within equipment exclusion zones, will not occur in the winter. 4. Fuels breaks in the RMZ shall be avoided. Minimal hand clearing for fuel breaks in the RMZ may be conducted to prevent and control escaped fires. No overstory removal will be undertaken. If areas of bare soil are exposed from fuel breaks or fire that could result in fine sediment inputs into Class I, II, or III waters, such areas will be treated as per the surface erosion requirements. 5. All ▇▇▇▇▇ are conducted pursuant to permits issued by CDF. 6. When available and feasible, a helitorch will be used to ignite fires for better directional and speed control of the fire.
