Team 10 was on a prepo In North ops
Interesting again? How were they on pre-postion when Fogles Team just went out? Not following calendar? Confused?
I m with team 15. I believe they were on 2hr after we went to the Stagecoach. Then Foggles team went. Not sure what the Gaccs doing behind the scenes
Not sure either? The last couple of years there seems to have been a little “deviation” from the rotation? I’m just curious? I do realize there is a lot that goes on behind the curtain and I’m just a grunt… Thanks

Another possible factor in the deviation from a strict rotation is that when things start getting busy a lot of team members may be committed to their own incidents and/or locked down due to department draw down. And don’t forget the possibility of team members that, due to possible COVID exposure can’t deploy. All this equals the real possibility a team may not be able to roster enough people to fill a request.

Team 10 wasnt Pre Positioned. Team 10 was assigned to the Trimmer Incident till 8/12. 8/13 the Trimmer Incident was Transitioned back to the local agency. Team 12 Nobles would be up for TNF Loyalton
That’s what I see. Nobles Team should have gone out?
Team 10 was pre positioned in Redding after the Trimmer

The proposed IMT rotation is set before the season and only really applies when things are in a “stable” position. Add COVID mitigation in there and you’ve got a situation that needs to be fluid. If you’ve been on an incident this year you know the logistical challenges being faced to do what’s best for all. 12 just returned from 2 week assignment, Team 10 hadn’t truly taken full command of the Trimmer, 10 is already mobilized and far closer to the TNF than 12 would be so it makes sense to reassign a team that still has 90% of their roll time remaining. Still plenty of time remaining in this season and I imagine IMT’s are all going to be taxed at some point. Let’s not be in a rush to get there. Stay safe

No rush on going out. Just trying to understand the decision making. Thanks again
Just as Firegobbler said, Team 10 was prepositioned in Redding after the Gobbler to pick up anything up north, which they did. Team 11 remained on 2 hour and picked up the Ranch Fire. I hear Team 15 may come back up tomorrow to finish out their regularly scheduled 2 hour.
The schedule does get all out of whack when things are busy, but it’s the starting point. Work forward from there.
15 is supposed to be up now, but they were out so 10 had it. But 10 was out, so 11 had it. 11 went out, so 12 has it. When 15 is back available, they’ll pick up call again with 12 as next up. Supposedly.

15 is committed or just got back (reset maybe).
Prepo or not it looks like 10 was up according to the rotation.

Anyone know why the IAP’s became “password protected” on the PUBLIC server, even the older ones? That’s a new one for me! I got a question about it today and I did not have an answer!

Federal teams view the IAP as private and not public information so they tend to not post it on the FTP… But they started that lately with a password protection.

@Smokiebehr It’s definitely a first for me hearing about that! Is that going to be for ALL future IAP’s on the Federal side or do you know? Interesting if they put it to the public server that they’d still password it.
