A fire-break is a strip of land that has been cleared of all trees, shrubs, grass and other combustible material, providing a 'fuel free' area. Fire-breaks are intended to allow access for firefighting vehicles and can provide a fuel free area from which prescribed burning can be undertaken.. Firebreaks are areas that are cleaned of fuels and reduced to mineral soil. They are created by using special equipment and hand tools to form trenches or harrows. GFC recommends firebreaks be two times the width of the expected height of the flames. GFC provides the service of plowing pre-suppression firebreaks to landowners.
