Fire Management Plan This long-range fire management plan (FMP) for Gettysburg National Military Park (GETT) and Eisenhower National Historic Site (EISE) uses the benefits of natural and prescribed fire to achieve desired natural resource conditions in accordance with the Federal Wildland and Prescribed Fire Management Policy (1995, 2001, & 2009). NPS Director's Order #18, Wildland Fire Management (DO-18), requires all Parks units with vegetation capable of sustaining fire to develop a FMP. A combined FMP was developed for both GETT and EISE because the two Parks are contiguous and they are managed by the same NPS staff. Download the Fire Management Plan here.
