Klondike Fire Information Wildfire Situation Update Date: July 16, 2021 NW Preparedness Level: 5 For DNR’s current fire situation National Preparedness Level: 5 status please visit: NW T2 IMT Rotation: All teams out. http://fireinfo.dnr.wa.gov/ DNR IA Activity: Light Weather Summary: Friday, July 16, 2021 1000 hrs. Jon Bonk – NWS IMET Today/Tonight: Marine layer is 4,000-5,000 feet thick west of the Cascade crest this morning with stratus clouds banking up against, and a short distance across, the crest. Onshore flow will keep fire weather impacts low across the west side with light drizzle and spotty rain is possible for the Olympics and north Cascade west slopes. Meanwhile, breezy winds and fairly low humidity will keep elevated concerns across much of the east side today. The cooler and denser air spilling across the crest is producing another morning of breezy winds through most of the east slope valleys and central/eastern Gorge. Gusts 25-30 mph are common in those areas with gusts around 40 mph in the Kittitas Valley. Gorge winds will remain quite breezy today in and near the Gorge. The east slope valleys will see winds ease up for a few hours later this morning before peaking again this afternoon and evening at 25-35 mph, strongest in the Kittitas Valley. Away from those wind favored areas, expect south to southwest winds with gusts 10-20 mph. The higher terrain may see gusts of 20-25 mph. Today will be the coolest day of the past 7 and next 7 days for the east side with temperatures running close to normal. Unfortunately, humidity will generally remain at 15-25%, which is still concerning especially for the wind prone areas. Somewhat better relief in conditions tonight as the cooler temperatures and marine air west of the Cascades makes minor intrusions over to the east side. Humidity recovery will be better tonight across the board reaching the 40-60% range, however, it will still take most of the night to reach there. Breezy winds continue long into the overnight hours across the usual areas. Thus, conditions will continue to favor burning of fine fuels until much closer to sunrise. Elsewhere, winds greatly ease after midnight. Please refer to local NWS forecasts for specific regional and local details. *More information below* Burn Restrictions/Announcements: July 16, 2021: Inslee amends proclamations relating to wildfires This proclamation amends the Wildfire/Burn Ban proclamation to now also suspend the statutory truck driver hour limitations. This is needed to address the interruption in fuel distribution to firefighters. It will also allow the National and State Guard to assist firefighters. Read the full proclamation here. July 6, 2021: Inslee declares wildfire state of emergency, limited burn ban Gov. Jay Inslee today declared a statewide state of emergency relating to the growing risk of wildfires, including a statewide prohibition on most outdoor and agricultural burning through September 30, 2021. "Washington is facing a historic drought and we have already experienced record-breaking heat. We must be vigilant in our efforts to prevent wildfires, and the loss of life and destruction of land and property that comes with them,” Inslee said. “We don’t want a repeat of recent years with dangerous wildfires across the state that have destroyed towns, killed livestock and resulted in weeks of unhealthy air quality. I urge everyone to do their part to help protect our beautiful state and all our communities.” “We have seen a record-breaking number of fires for this early in the summer,” said Commissioner of Public Lands Hilary Franz. “Extreme drought conditions leave communities across our state at risk as fire danger continues to climb. I’m asking everyone to do their part and take precautions to prevent wildfires. Our firefighters on the frontlines depend on us to help keep them safe.” Although this order includes some burn ban exceptions (for example, the use of gas-fueled stoves in some circumstances and also small, recreational campfires in contained structures on a person’s private property) nothing in the order supersedes more restrictive provisions by a lawful authority, like city or county governments. The proclamation also activates the Washington National Guard to assist in wildfire suppression efforts. Read the full proclamation here: https://www.governor.wa.gov/sites/default/files/proclamations/proc_21-10.pdf JULY 1, 2021: Commissioner Franz Enacts Statewide DNR Burn Ban Prompted by increased fire danger due to prolonged drought, Fourth of July fireworks, increased temperatures and winds, the order bans all outdoor burning on all forest lands under DNR fire protection, including campfires Additional information: Residents who see smoke should call 911 to report the fire.

  • 2.0 Inventory of Existing Conditions
    2014 Airport Master Plan Narrative Report 2.0 INVENTORY OF EXISTING CONDITIONS 2.1 INTRODUCTION AND PLANNING CONTEXT 2.1.1 GENERAL The purpose of the inventory is to summarize existing conditions of all the facilities at the Priest River Municipal Airport (1S6) as well as summarize other pertinent information relating to the community and the airport background, airport role, surrounding environment and various operational and other significant characteristics. The information in this chapter describes the current status of the Priest River Municipal Airport and provides the baseline for determining future facility needs. Information was obtained through various justifiable mediums including: consultant research, review of existing documents, interviews and conversations with airport stakeholders including the airport sponsor (Bonner County), City of Priest River, airport tenants, Idaho Transportation Department - Division of Aeronautics (ITD) and other knowledgeable sources. 2.1.2 FAA NATIONAL PLAN OF INTEGRATED AIRPORT SYSTEMS (NPIAS) AND ASSET STUDY The United States has developed a national airport system. Known as the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS), this system identifies public-use airports considered by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), state aviation agencies, and local planning organizations to be in the national interest and essential for the U.S air transportation system. Per the 2013- 2017 NPIAS Report to Congress, guiding principles of the NPIAS include: The NPIAS will provide a safe, efficient and integrated system of airports; The NPIAS will ensure an airport system that is in a state of good repair, remains safe and is extensive, providing as many people as possible with convenient access to air transportation The NPIAS will support a variety of critical national objectives such as defense, emergency readiness, law enforcement, and postal delivery.

Ziegler, P.E. 2702 South 42nd Street, Suite 201 Director Tacoma, Washington 98409-7322 [email protected] piercecountywa.org/pwu TO: Dan Roach, Chair Pierce County Council FROM: Deb Wallace, Airport and Ferry Administrator DATE: October 28, 2014 SUBJECT: Airport Security The purpose of this briefing paper is to provide an update to Council on the status of security upgrades at Pierce County's airports. Current Situation: The Pierce County Airport and Ferry division is in the process of upgrading gate access, fencing, and security lighting at both airports. In 2015 the division will implement an Airport Watch program to increase the safety and security at each facility. The improvements are being made due to incidents which have occurred at the airports over the last several years and at the request of airport tenants. Currently both airports are fenced with restricted access gates to enhance security, although there are gaps in the fencing allowing unauthorized pedestrian entry. These gaps will be addressed in early 2015. An electronic gate is being added to the north gate at Tacoma Narrows Airport (TIW) and the south gate is being outfitted with a mechanism to allow its use by those who are hearing impaired. Once that improvement is completed, 24 hour security will be implemented at TIW. Thun Field currently operates with 24 hour gate security. Prior to implementation, the airport commissions at each airport discussed airport security measures during the preceding year and staff coordinated the implementation of the security measures with airport tenants.

    Aircraft Chapter 50 CHAPTER 50 AIRCRAFT Aircraft may be used for a wide range of activities, including point to point transport of personnel, equipment, and supplies. Tactical use may include applications such as retardant delivery, helicopter logistical and tactical support, air tactical and lead plane operations, suppression or pre-suppression reconnaissance, and aerial ignition. For more information review the National Aviation Safety and Management Plan at: https://www.fs.fed.us/fire/aviation/av_library/2017- 2018%20NASMP%20Approved%2024%20Jan%202017%20Directives%20Hyperlinks%20Updated%202 6%20Ja....508_Coverfixed.pdf AIRCRAFT MOBILIZATION Refer to NMG 50 Units requiring aviation services other than those assigned to them, through preapproved agreements, or within their dispatch boundaries, can order additional aircraft from adjacent units or through NWCC. At preparedness Levels 3-5, NWCC will coordinate aircraft assignment and utilization in the Northwest Area. The control of the aircraft assigned to a unit will remain with the local unit. In situations where the Northwest Multi-Agency Coordinating Group (NWMAC) has been activated, the NWMAC will coordinate with NWCC and local units on allocation and prioritization of aviation resources. AIRCRAFT SOURCES Sources for aircraft include agency-owned aircraft, Exclusive-Use and Call-When Needed (CWN) or On- Call Light Fixed Wing Aircraft and Helicopters. These aircraft may be ordered through established dispatch channels. Forest Service CWN helicopter contractors are assigned to a Host Forest Unit for administrative purposes and processing of Flight Invoices. Refer to CWN listings for helicopters and light fixed wing aircraft at website: http://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/r6/fire-aviation/?cid=fsbdev2_027111 DOI Bureaus may use the Office of Aviation Services (OAS) aircraft source list at website: https://www.doi.gov/aviation/aqd/aviation_resources Rental aircraft are signed up by the OAS under an Aircraft Rental Agreement (ARA).
