In order to investigate the usefulness and effectiveness of the protection of regional forest services (forest offices and forest directions per prefectures) were collected via an appropriate questionnaire to decide the most expedient category of fire protection measures and the usefulness of information offered by the new proposed processes. The elaboration of replies and the utilisation of their information was done separately per forest services of A, B and C degree of fire risk and for the total of forest services as well. By the analysis of the above it results clearly the usefulness and the expediency of the proposed incorporation of new processes into the prevention and suppression system and the economic efficiency of the proposed investment.
