Description: Vegetation treatments documented in these data set may be categorized by the general type of treatment that is used on the area being treated. These different types of vegetation treatments are Chemical, Physical, Biological, and Prescribed Fire. The first three are further categorized by the treatment sub-type. Chemical treatments are either pesticide or fertilizer; Physical treatments are alteration, planting, or removal; and Biological treatments are either classical or non-classical. Prescribed Fire is the only fire related treatment and therefore has no sub-types.
