So as of May 5th, FTP HAS 2 folders. Protected (IAPs posted here and not public facing. Meaning you have to have FAMAuth account) and unprotected where the public can access (only certain maps will be posted here).

If i didnt know better i’d say something has changed or something is up. Literaly fires burning in towns/cities and the local news stations are putting up banners on their live streams as if they are live streaming the fire BUT it’s normal programing with fire info interspersed.. #weird

Well established spot east of sequoia, pulling resources from other divisions and sounds like it’s hit a Management Action Point for potentially further evacs

Did VNC keep it or push to a Type 3 team?

VNC and LAC have enough qualified to field their own Type 3. Typically they only push it up to a Cal Fire Team or a Fed CIMT. Both are Cal Fire Contract counties

The fire is 100% VC and being handled internally with their C&G staff. ICP is set up at Conejo Creek park in Thousand Oaks. CALFIRE is on scene as an AA and supporting with needed resources.
