AA requests 2 VLATs to build contingency line from Mount Raymond east to Iron Creek Drainage.
Believe all that is in Div.W according to Fire955 posted map.

EDIT UPDATE @ 15:29 Request still placed for the 2 VLATS (if they get released) and 2 LATs as a substitute and hear what shows up after all the phone calls and computer keying are completed.

EDIT UPDATE @17:30- At the peak for retardant contingency line building they used 4 LATs and 1 VLAT to complete the above detailed line. Aircraft released. Seems like they are getting this box strengthened.

The one thing I see on the critical resource needs (been on the list for days) that I find troubling is the NIFC Repeater System. We are only at PL3 and you can’t get critical communications equipment? I have seen this in the past, but we were at PL5 and many more fires nationally.
What’s going on in Boise? This is not a good sign. No communications, no engagement from a safety standpoint.
