Answer:

Indirect attack (ground cover)

Step-by-step explanation:

Indirect attack (ground cover) is a method of controlling a groundcover fire whereby the control line is erected or situated at a remote from the main fire edge, and the fuel between the two points was burned.

The indirect attack is set up at some distance

from the raging fire. The indirect attack method is normally used to put out

fires that are too fast, too big or too hot for a direct attack method to work.

adjustments can be made when required
