The heel is where it spotted?
I was thinking the same thing???!!
Yep , in the " Horseshoe" where we always had problems in that canyon. Has it made it into the old Stanislaus Complex scar yet?
Yes it has gotten into the old complex scar. I was there that show many moons ago.
Has anyone heard what is going on with private resource orders. Have not seen hardly any activity on the Calfire lists. Just curious why they aren’t using all available resources…
New legislation from cal fire about contractors. It’s in the open discussion I believe
Copy. Thank you. New here so I’m just figuring it all out.
It’s a federal incident so they won’t be using the Cal Fire list. They will be using the federal ordering process.
Its a fed fire, fed contract list. They will take an out of state resource first if they are available before going down the Cal fire list. Same goes for single resource OH positions
Copy. That’s why I threw in “Calfire” because I am not sure how unified command works.
Thank you
Look at Google maps and the green part by the 140 horseshoe is pretty much the same as Fed DPA. State DPA outside of that Forest boundary but it is pretty much all BLM land with a few pockets of private with nothing on them so still technically FRA I guess.
If somebody cares to comment, if a fire like this with command structure in place burns out of Fed DPA and onto State DPA but it is still Fed land, it would seem like the State would not really be in a hurry to move in on that, correct?
It is related to the incident, it is a good question, and it is posted in Questions and Discussion
Agreed! Isn’t this the forum for that?
Definitely not an SME but my understanding is that Cal Fire has contracts to protect BLM land in many Cal Fire units so that might put responsibility on the state.
Don’t let this single person get people to stay away. So far, this has been an excellent replacement for the old site. It is what we ALL make it. Not just a minority.
Agreed , I’m glad this site is up and rubbing let’s keep it that way please
Come on Folks, we don’t always have the same view points, but lets keep a good attitude here. This site is gaining more ground every day and it is an excellent replacement. The old site is history and, towards the end, the Bickering was more and more. We are Professionals, let’s keep it professional.
Nicely said, ffviking.
Read on another thread for this incident that air attack wants 10-15 fixed wing for tommorow…
Is this the case? If so…uhhhh
