The scoopers that came from Santa Fe had a nice evening in bullhead city. Just to fly back to Santa Fe this morning…. Really makes you shake your head as a tax payer.

AZ-CRA is the jurisdictional agency and belongs in the Southwest GACC. Just like there are NV-HTF (Great Basin) fires in CA and CA-INF fires in NV. The GACC boundaries, dispatch boundaries, and federal agency boundaries don’t exactly follow state lines. IROC, IRWIN, Wildweb/WIldcad, the ICS-209 Program, etc all reflect the agency as AZ-CRA. You can’t just change the state part, because the 3 letters are not unique nationally (eg CA-CNF and AZ-CNF are two different forests).
