Values in the output tables that over or underestimate typical fire behavior (based on experience) are so noted.

Desired or optimal management stage (structurally) is described for each community stage.  Each stage also describes general management treatment protocol information which outlines the treatments that are necessary to achieve more optimal vegetative conditions within that community.  Special management concerns for each community are listed as well as the locations of each community on EEL sites throughout Brevard County.
