  • Collective Intelligence in Emergency Management 1
    Collective Intelligence in Emergency Management 1 Running head: COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE IN EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT: SOCIAL MEDIA’S ROLE IN THE EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER Collective Intelligence in Emergency Management: Social Media's Emerging Role in the Emergency Operations Center Eric D. Nickel Novato Fire District Novato, California Collective Intelligence in Emergency Management 2 CERTIFICATION STATEMENT I hereby certify that this paper constitutes my own product, that where the language of others is set forth, quotation marks so indicate, and that appropriate credit is given where I have used the language, ideas, expressions, or writings of another. Signed: __________________________________ Collective Intelligence in Emergency Management 3 ABSTRACT The problem was that the Novato Fire District did not utilize social media technology to gather or share intelligence during Emergency Operations Center activations. The purpose of this applied research project was to recommend a social media usage program for the Novato Fire District’s Emergency Operations Center. Descriptive methodology, literature review, two personal communications and a statistical sampling of fire agencies utilizing facebook supported the research questions. The research questions included what were collective intelligence and social media; how was social media used by individuals and organizations during events and disasters; how many fire agencies maintained a facebook page and used them to distribute emergency information; and which emergency management social media programs should be recommended for the Novato Fire District’s Emergency Operations Center. The procedures included two data collection experiments, one a statistical sampling of United States fire agencies using facebook, to support the literature review and research questions. This research is one of the first Executive Fire Officer Applied Research Projects that addressed this emerging subject.

  • Community Wildfire Protection Plan
    Marin County Fire Department in collaboration with COMMUNITY WILDFIRE PROTECTION PLAN 2016 Cover photo, istock.com, copyright David Safanda, 2007. ● ● ● Executive Summary Executive Summary This Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) provides a scientifically based assessment of wildfire threat in the wildland urban interface (WUI) of Marin County, California. This CWPP was developed through a collaborative process involving Marin County fire agencies, county officials, county, state, and federal land management agencies, and community members. It meets the CWPP requirements set forth in the federal Healthy Forests Restoration Act, which include: • Stakeholder collaboration (Section 3). • Identifying and prioritizing areas for fuel reduction activities (Sections 4 and 5). • Addressing structural ignitability (Section 7). Wildfire poses the greatest risk to human life and property in Marin County’s densely populated WUI, which holds an estimated 69,000 living units. Marin County is home to 23 communities listed on CAL FIRE’s Communities at Risk list, with approximately 80% of the total land area in the county designated as having moderate to very high fire hazard severity ratings. The county has a long fire history with many large fires over the past decades, several of which have occurred in the WUI. To compound the issue, national fire suppression policies and practices have contributed to the continuous growth (and overgrowth) of vegetation resulting in dangerous fuel loads (see Section 1.6). ● ● ● i ● ● ● Executive Summary A science-based hazard, asset, risk assessment was performed using up-to-date, high resolution topography and fuels information combined with local fuel moisture and weather data. The assessment was focused on identifying areas of concern throughout the county and beginning to prioritize areas where wildfire threat is greatest.

  • Class B Fire Suppression Foam Usage Survey
    Class B Fire Suppression Foam Usage Survey - New York State Airports If a respondent indicated that the facility used/stored/disposed PFOA/PFOS substances, it does not necessarily mean that there is an environmental/public health concern associated with that facility. Also, if a respondent indicated that they currently/formerly used, stored, disposed of, or released Class B firefighting foam it does not necessarily mean that the foam contains/contained PFOA/PFOS since many Class B foams do not contain these substances. DEC is in the process of reviewing/evaluating the returned surveys to determine if additional follow-up or study is needed. Return rate: 91 surveys were sent to facilities; 90 were returned completed as of June 1, 2017. Questions 1 & 2 relate to name and address; questions 3-5 relate to facility ownership. Q. 6: Is any Class B fire suppression foam currently stored and/or used at the facility? Q. 7: Has any Class B fire suppression foam ever been stored and/or used at the facility? Q. 8: Has Class B fire suppression foam ever been used for training purposes at the facility? Q. 9: Has Class B fire suppression foam ever been used for firefighting or other emergency response purposes at the facility? Q. 10: Has the facility ever experienced a spill or leak of Class B fire suppression foam? Q. 11: Has your facility ever been responsible for the use of Class B fire suppression foam at a location other than the facility (i.e. offsite training, emergency response, or spill)?

    FIRST -HAND ACCOUNTS OF THE MOUNT VISION FIRE BY A RANCHER A FIREFIGHTER A PARK RANGER A FIRE STRATEGIST A FIRE WARDEN A WATER DISTRICT MANAGER INMATE FIREFIGHTERS AN OBSERVER HOME OWNERS BURNED OUT A HOMEOWNER SPARED A NATURALIST Interviews by Leonard Tennyson, Inverness Transcriptions by Lynne D.Yonng, Marshall and by Connie Holton, Berkeley. Copyright Leonard Tennyson Inverness, California 1996 Second Edition 1996 October 13,1996 ABOUT THE INTERVIEWS: These" oral history" interviews were made over a period of several months after the October '95 Mt. Vision fire. They were done at the suggestion of Louise Landreth, a member of the Committee of the Jack Mason Museum of Inverness, for the Museum's historical archives. These unabridged interviews barely scratch the surface. They reflect only the personal views and experiences of two dozen or so people whose lives were touched by the fire. Limits of time and resources eliminated scores of others -- people who played vital roles in fighting the fire and those whose lives were profoundly affected by it. Of the former group, many are well known through official reports. They include Park Superintendent Don Neubacher, Stan Rowan, Chief of the Marin County Fire Department, and Tom Tarp, the State's Fire Chief. Together they formed the triumvirate of the Incident Command. In the latter group must be included all of the people who lost their homes in the fire. We can never measure in full the contributions of the "unknowns" -- hand crew firefighters, engine crews, dozer operators, pilots and crews of helicopters and air tankers and providers of food and shelter.

  • Lessons Learned 2017 North Bay Fire Siege September 2018
    Lessons Learned 2017 North Bay Fire Siege September 2018 Prepared By: Marin County Fire Department P.O. Box 518, Woodacre, CA 94973 www.marincountyfire.org 1 Contents: Previous Steps in Fire Preparedness 3 Board of Supervisors Takes Action 6 Scope of Sub-Committee 8 Panel Interview (North Bay Officials) 8 Public Listening Session / Community Forum 11 Suggested Areas for Improvement 12 Next Steps / Recommendations 18 Contact Information 20 2 The devastating wildfires of the October 2017 North Bay Fire Siege left nearby communities frightened and highlighted the necessity for fire prevention and preparedness. When the fires started on October 8th, the only thing separating Marin County from their neighbors to the north was simply an ignition source. Subsequent community conversations regarding wildfire preparedness have highlighted the need to update Marin communities on preparation that is already underway as well as plans that local government has developed to prepare further. In November 2017, the Marin County Board of Supervisors created a sub-committee to study lessons learned from the North Bay Fires. The sub-committee included Supervisors Judy Arnold and Dennis Rodoni, leaders from fire, law enforcement, and land management agencies, as well as representatives from Marin’s cities and towns. The public was also invited to voice concerns and hear from the agencies represented. The sub-committee proceeded in three steps: first, the sub-committee held an extensive panel interview with Sonoma officials in order to learn from their experiences. Next, the sub-committee hosted a public forum in an effort to gather community input and preferences. Finally, the sub-committee took an inventory of Marin’s existing programs, identifying gaps within and across agencies.
