There have been a wide variety of opportunities for personal growth and professional devel- opment. With these new opportunities, we look forward to ongoing innovation and in- creased levels of service to the public. The Tree Mortality Fuels Crew was able to clear 886 acres and remove 5,000 hazard trees while working on the 2 projects. We will continue to work on these projects through 5 additional grants awarded by CalFire for work to be completed from 2019 to 2021. January was a busy month for TCFD as our call volume remained at Holiday levels. The TCFD also assisted with the Thomas Fire Mudslide Incident early in the month. Local- ly there were two minor storms which resulted in some minor localized flooding, downed power lines and some traffic accidents. Tulare County did experience a few minor storms in February followed by a signifi- cant storm during the week of March 19th. Sections of Highway 190 were closed for a peri- od of time due to mudslides related to the Pier Fire burn scar. During the height of the storm, TCFD crews responded to 62 calls for service in a 24 hour period with approximately 20 of those calls directly relating to the weather. In April the TCFD experienced a decrease in calls for service followed by a signifi- cant increase in calls for service in May. Locally, 83 vegetation fires were reported in May compared to 46 in April. TCFD received 2 new Rosenbauer Type 6 Patrols and one Rosenbauer Type 3 En- gine in June. These new apparatus will help us to embrace the challenges in our communi- ties for future incidents. Statewide there were 11 active fires burning at the close of June and several TCFD crews went out of county to help with these incidents. Throughout July fires in the state continued to burn, tragically resulting in several firefighter and civilian fatalities. TCFD crews continued to help with several of the major statewide incidents. TCFD rolled out the Administrative Citation program and was able to issue several citations during the Fourth of July holiday. We will continue to educate the public on “Safe and Sane Fireworks” and what is allowed locally. During August and September, a number of wildland incidents in the state contin- ued. There were 29 wildland incidents in August alone. Tragically by the end of September, the fire service had experienced 8 line of duty deaths on California incidents. The tragic Camp Fire incident occurred during the month of November. The Camp Fire was devastating to the community of Paradise, California with over 19,000 structures destroyed and 88 civilians were fatally injured. TCFD wrapped up the year with several community events including helping Santa to deliver gifts to some deserving children! We also participated in several community pa- rades and assisted at the Visalia Rescue Mission. On behalf of the men and women of the Tulare County Fire Department, thank you for allowing us to serve you. Sincerely, Charlie Norman Fire Chief, Tulare County Fire Department 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We would like to thank the Board of Supervisors and the County Administrative Officer for their ongoing support.

Prior to 2007, the County of Tulare contracted with the California Department of Forestry & Fire Protection (CDF), through a cooperative agreement, to provide fire protection for the County. This agreement was established in 1929. CDF provided personnel to staff fire stations and apparatus, which are owned by the County, as well as administrative staff to manage the Department. The Tulare County Board of Supervisors (BOS) hired Steve Sunderland in February 2006 as its first Fire Chief in anticipation of having their own fully operational Fire Department on July 1, 2007. Chief Sunderland hired three Division Chiefs, Ted Mendoza, John Crivello and Joe Garcia to assist him with the transition to a Department independent of CDF. Chief Mendoza was responsible for the operations of the Department, Chief Crivello was responsible for the Training Division and Chief Garcia managed the Fire Prevention Division. In October 2011, the BOS appointed Division Chief Garcia as their second Fire Chief after Chief Sunderland retired. Chief Garcia hired Clay Smith as the Support Services Division Chief and Charlie Norman as the Operations Division Chief after Division Chief Mendoza retired and Division Chief Crivello was hired as the Fire Chief of the Farmersville Fire Department. The BOS appointed Division Chief Norman as its third Fire Chief in January 2016. Chief Norman promoted Jeff McLaughlin, who began as a Lieutenant with the Department in 2007, from Battalion Chief to Division Chief of Operations in 2016. Pete Marquez was hired as the Division Chief for Support Services in 2016 when Division Chief Clay Smith was appointed as the Fire Chief for the Kings County Fire Department. Division Chief Marquez is currently responsible for the Professional Standards Division. Chief Norman promoted Battalion Chief Jeff Smith, who began as a Lieutenant with the Department in 2007, to Division Chief in November 2018. Division Chief Smith is the Department’s third Division Chief and is responsible for the Training Division. The Department moved its headquarters from Farmersville to a new facility in Visalia, which is located at 835 S. Akers St., in September 2017. The Tulare County Emergency Operations Center is located in Fire Department Headquarters which is next to the Sheriff’s Department. The co-location of the County’s Emergency Services allow for collaboration between the three Departments to improve services for the residents of the County. 6 2018 HEADQUARTERS STAFF Fire Chief Charlie Norman Department Secretary Anne Haynes Operations Professional Standards Training Administrative Division Chief Division Chief Division Chief Services Officer Jeff McLaughlin Pete Marquez Jeff Smith Steven Murch Prevention Training Captain 1 Battalion 1 Battalion Chief Kyle Newton Payroll Clerk Kevin Riggi Christina Whitendale Training Captain 2 Duane Shiers Prevention Office FireComm Assistant III Battalion 2 Dispatch Supervisor Maria Orozco Gloria Simoes Facilities Management Principal Account Clerk Divina Santos Battalion 3 Fleet Services Coordination Training Office Assistant III Ana Ferreira 7 2018 OPERATIONS DIVISION Operations Division Chief Jeff McLaughlin Battalion 1 Battalion 2 Battalion 3 A Shift A Shift A Shift Mike Pavone Richard Doyle Raymond Russell Battalion 1 Battalion 2 Battalion 3 B Shift B Shift B Shift Mark Fleming Derek Steidley Jesse Renteria Battalion 1 Battalion 2 Battalion 3 C Shift C Shift C Shift David Vasquez Bryan Duffy Jason Elizondo Emergency Management/ Planning 8 2018 PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS Professional Standards Division Chief Pete Marquez FireComm Fleet Prevention Dispatch Services Battalion Chief Gloria Simoes Coordination Kevin Riggi Jody Adney Justine Bunker Delylah Elizondo Cheyenne Gist Prevention Melissa Hernandez Fire Captains Brian Ramsey Joe Rosa, Jr. Amber Trimble Joanne Bear Josie VanHooser EH Dispatchers Code Enforcement Sebastian Avina Fire Inspectors Deanna Lavinder Cyndi Adney Brad Farr Jimmy Herrera John Meyer Gilbert Portillo (EH) 9 2018 TRAINING DIVISION Training Division Chief Jeff Smith Training Facilities Admin Captains Maintenance Duane Shiers Maintenance Kyle Newton Worker III Mere Saucedo 10 BATTALION 1 Station 1 Station 4 Station 12 Visalia Cutler/Orosi Woodlake Station 2 Station 8 Station 13 Kings River Ivanhoe Lemon Cove Station 3 Station 11 Station 14 Dinuba Exeter Three Rivers Station 17 Badger Key: Mountain Stations Valley Stations 11 BATTALION 2 Station 5 Station 16 Station 20 Posey Strathmore Doyle Colony Station 6 Station 18 Station 21 California Hot Kennedy Terra Bella Springs Meadows Station 15 Station 19 Station 22 Lindsay West Olive Springville Station 23 Camp Nelson Key: Mountain Stations Valley Stations 12 BATTALION 3 Station 7 Station 25 Goshen Tulare Station 9 Station 26 Alpaugh Tipton Station 10 Station 27 Richgrove West Pixley Station 28 Earlimart Key: Mountain Stations Valley Stations 13 2018 Incident Breakdown While overall call volume did decrease slightly from 2017, our Rescue & Emergency Medical Service calls went up 5% and our Service Calls also increased slightly from 2017 . Even with this increase we are still below the national average for “medical aids”. “Medical Aids” can range from basic medical aid calls, to citizens in their homes requiring our assistance, to vehicle accidents.

  • Chetco Bar BAER Specialist Reports
    Chetco Bar BAER Specialist Reports Burned Area Emergency Response Soil Resource Assessment Chetco Bar Fire OR-RSF-000326 Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest October 2017 Lizeth Ochoa – BAER Team Soil Scientist USFS, Rogue River-Siskiyou NF [email protected] Kit MacDonald – BAER Team Soil Scientist USFS, Coconino and Kaibab National Forests [email protected] 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Chetco Bar fire occurred on 191,197 acres on the Gold Beach and Wild Rivers Ranger District of the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest, BLM lands, and other ownerships in southwestern Oregon. Approximately 170,321 acres of National Forest System (NFS) land, 6,746 acres of BLM land and 14,130 acres of private land were affected by this wildfire. Within the fire perimeter, approximately 14,012 acres burned at high soil burn severity, 64,545 acres burned at moderate soil burn severity, 76,613 acres burned at low soil burn severity, and 36,027 remain unburned. On NFS-managed lands, 10,684 acres burned at high soil burn severity, 58,784 acres burned at moderate soil burn severity, 70,201 acres burned at low soil burn severity and 30,642 acres remain unburned or burned at very low soil burn severity (Figure 1). The Chetco Bar fire burned area is characterized as steep, rugged terrain, with highly dissected slopes and narrow drainages. Dominant surficial geology is metamorphosed sedimentary and volcanic rocks, peridotite and other igneous rocks. Peridotite has been transformed into serpentine through a process known as serpentinization. This transformation is the result of hydration and metamorphic transformation of ultramafic (high iron and magnesium) rocks.

Abstract Between 2017 and 2019, California experienced a series of devastating wildfires that together led over one million people to be ordered to evacuate. Due to the speed of many of these wildfires, residents across California found themselves in challenging evacuation situations, often at night and with little time to escape. These evacuations placed considerable stress on public resources and infrastructure for both transportation and sheltering.

  • 2013 Kansas Fire Incident Reporting System Annual Report
    2013 Kansas Fire Incident Reporting System Annual Report What did the Kansas Fire Service do in 2013? Office of the State Fire Marshal Doug Jorgensen Fire Marshal 800 SW Jackson, Suite 104 Topeka, KS 66612 Phone: (785) 296-3401 www.ksfm.ks.gov Kansas Fire Incident Reporting System Kansas fire departments are required under K.A.R 22-5-1 to submit a report for each incident where a response is made by that fire department, regardless of the call type or actions taken on the call. Also included in the requirements are reports for any fire service casualty, injury or death, that occurs while acting in an official role a call, responding to a call, drilling, at the station, etc. Firefighter injuries caused by equipment failures are heavily scrutinized to continue improving the safety of our Fire Service. Kansas does not have a central repository of fire reports. Instead, reports received at the Office of the State Fire Marshal are uploaded directly into the National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) housed at the National Fire Data Center (NFDC) at the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA). Each year, the USFA releases the most comprehensive reference on the nature and scope of the fire problem in the United States, Fire in the United States. The agencies and departments participating in the NFIRS make the publication possible. In addition to publications, the data can highlight current and emerging trends for more than fires. A variety of different public safety groups use the information to drive improvements through regulation, creating better equipment, training, education, product recalls, and funding.

ISBN: 9781797668697 Author’s Social Media Sites: You Tube: Aplanetruth3 & (4) WellHealed2 Websites: Aplanetruth.info; Tabublog.com; Wellhealed.life; Avvi.info; Wellnessandwisdom.store; Face Book: JME LEE Author’s Books: Fall of 2019 Dedications This book is dedicated to all who have been displaced and disrupted by the California fires through no fault of their own. They deserve better than how they have been treated by their insurers, their local politicians, their state ‘representatives’, their local & state fire and police agencies, FEMA, and Red Cross. To courageous retired Fire Captains John Lord and Matt Dakin, who boldy went on social media to discuss the many anomalies, inconsistencies and impossibilities, that are occurring with the California fires when no other government or community service officials had the temerity to do. To date, they are STILL the only two experts to speak out, though many professionals are in agreement, in private conversation and do not want to risk their jobs and pensions. And to you, the readers of this books most difficult subjects to comprehend and disseminate. It takes courage, to look at very difficult conclusions to the possibilities that California’s fires were not random or happenstance. It takes will, to want to know the truth, wherever it may lead you. And it takes Love, to heal the wounds from the physical, mental and Spiritual battles we are all facing today. The first steps to any occulted truths are a willingness to want to know rather than beLIEve, trust and blindly accept the official narratives provided by those in Secret Societies with hidden agendas who care not about your safety, or your well-being.
