Abstract
On the basis of scientific and departmental materials, as well as the results of the authors own research, an attempt was made to distribute various sections of the forest fund according to the classes of natural fire hazard (KPPO). It is noted that the current KPPO classification does not fully take into account the regional specifics of potential burning of forests. The latter is explained by the use of various classifications of forest types during forest management work, as well as the absence of certain types of land when compiling in 1963 the scale of natural fire danger by I.S. Melekhov. It has been established that a number of land categories are not taken into account in the current classification of the KPPO and that is why, the revised classification will provide a more objective assessment of the potential fire hazard in the Sverdlovsk forest fund. The distribution of the latter according to KPPO using the proposed classification will improve the efficiency of both measures for the fire-fighting arrangement of the territory of the forest fund and the protection of forests from fires in general.
