Section 9-13-271 Legislative findings. (a) The Legislature hereby finds and declares that the application of prescribed burning is a landowner property right and a land management tool that benefits the safety of the public, the environment, the natural resources, and the economy of Alabama. Therefore, the Legislature finds that: (1) Prescribed burning reduces naturally occurring vegetative fuels within wildland areas. The reduction of the fuel load reduces the risk and severity of major catastrophic wildfire, thereby reducing the threat of loss of life and property, particularly in urbanizing areas. (2) Many of Alabama's natural communities require periodic fire for maintenance of their ecological integrity. Prescribed burning is essential to the perpetuation, restoration, and management of many plant and animal communities. Significant loss of the state's biological diversity will occur if fire is excluded from fire-dependent ecosystems. (3) Forest lands constitute significant...

Section 36-18-50 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds, determines, and declares the following: (1) Driving a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance continues to be a major problem on the highways of our state and causes the death or injury of thousands of our citizens each year.
