Maximum Manageable Area (MMA) 2
Maximum Manageable Area (MMA) 2 :
The area of a prescribed fire where the fire is managed as part of the burn plan prescription parameters and constraints. A prescribed fire is managed within the MMA and all prudent and practical actions are taken by the prescribed fire team to maintain the fire within this predetermined area. If the prescribed fire breaches this perimeter line, the fire is declared a wildfire and the appropriate management response is initiated. This action usually consists of rapid and aggressive suppression tactics. Replaces the obsolete terminology of Maximum Allowable Perimeter (MAP)
