****If you are a landowner or consultant in North Carolina, and CANNOT attend this Workshop, please consider completing the following survey to assess the current needs and identify the challenges of landowners and contractors who use or would like to use prescribed fire on private lands in North Carolina.  The results of these surveys will be shared with agencies and organizations who work with prescribed fire, and will help develop additional ways to assist landowners in conducting prescribed burns.  Please note that there are two surveys (one for private landowners, and another for private sector natural resources professionals), so please choose the one that best fits your status.
