Abstract
Protecting life, communities, watershed and soils, natural resources and infrastructure from wildfire has been Alberta Sustainable Resource Development's (SRD) priority for many decades.Since the 1990s the provincial FireSmart program has been accepted nationally as a proactive prevention program.FireSmart introduces steps to mitigate wildfire impacts while embracing the ecological role of wildfire.Wildfire is a natural process that helps maintain healthy and vibrant forests.However, uncontrolled wildfire can have a devastating impact on industrial developments.The FireSmart program recognizes this delicate balance and presents a number of innovative solutions specifically for the Oil and Gas Industry.The Partners in Protection Association^ an Alberta-based, non-profit association with multidisciplinary membership developed the, "FireSmart, Protecting Your Community from Wildfire (Second Edition)" Manual in 2003 to provide direction primarily in the development of residential homes in the wildland/urban interface.Based on the success and acceptance of its wildfire threat assessment and mitigation chapters (including forms and illustrations), the communityfocused FireSmart Manual was used as a template for the FireSmart Guidebook for the Oil and Gas Industry.The Guidebook addresses both the threat of wildfire to Oil and Gas Industry values as well as the potential liability of the oil and gas industry.This document is intended as a guide for industry planning engineers and safety program managers throughout the province.The Alberta Department of Sustainable Resource Development and the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) have co-sponsored the Guidebook.In conjunction, CAPP has developed Best Management Practices (BMP) in recognition of the importance of protecting the oil and gas industry developments and the continuous operation of production facilities.These BMPs will (1) assist the oil and gas industries in the prevention of industry-caused wildfires; and (2) help mitigate the impact of catastrophic fires on industry infrastructure, operations, liability, personnel safety and the environment.' The Partners in Protection Association is committed to raising awareness, providing information and developing forums to address common problems that encourage initiatives to reduce the risk of fire losses and enhance safety in the wildland/ urban interface.^Alberta legislation, such as the Forest and Prairie Protection Act, Forests Act, Timber Management Regulations and Public Lands Act, is available at http://www.qp.gov.ab.ca/custom_page.cfm?page_id=34 Forest Protection Area of Alberta

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
