Park Service fire plan warned of risks at Los Alamos
The 250 page plan by the National Park Service admitted that despite expecting containment in rocky terrain the Los Alamos fire could escape flames and cause political problems due to smoke. It noted smugness about past burns and outlined moisture tests weather monitoring and smaller test fires before the main burn. The final plan was filed April 19 and released by investigators amid questions about who filed and approved the application.
