BIA Fire Occurrence Reporting System User’s Guide – May 2007 2 Bureau of Indian Affairs Fire Occurrence Reporting System – User’s Guide 2007 WHAT’S NEW This section of the User’s Guide highlights the most recent changes to the DI-1202-BIA Individual Fire Report form, the WFMI fire reporting module, and/or BIA fire reporting policy, guidelines, and process. The footer of this document and the Individual Fire Report form and templates shows the version date to help users ensure they have the latest release. This May 2007 combined update of the Individual Fire Report form and User’s Guide replaces the following previous versions: • May 2005 version of the DI-1202-BIA Individual Fire Report form and templates, which was released in conjunction with the switch from SACS to WFMI. • May 2006 version of the User’s Guide, which was an interim update to the May 2005 inaugural release. The May 2006 version was made available on the WFMI website, but not distributed in hardcopy because the changes (included in the items listed below) were relatively minor. Incident/Fire Name Field The maximum allowable length of the Incident/Fire Name has been expanded from 10 characters to 20. This change was documented in the May 2006 interim update of User’s Guide. In May 2007, the DI-1202-BIA Individual Fire Report was modified slightly, with the Incident/Fire Name field being moved from the block previously labeled “Agency Data” to the block labeled “General Reporting Information” at the top of the report. This is a more appropriate location for the Incident/Fire Name, as the block contains other identifying information, such as the Fire Number and FireCode. Location Data Fields Perhaps the most significant change in this May 2007 update involves the fields in the block now labeled “Location Data”. Previously, this block was labeled “Agency Data”, and it included both the Incident/Fire Name field and the location coordinate fields. With the Incident/Fire Name field being moved, as noted above, all that remains are the fields pertaining to the location of the point of origin, hence the renaming of this block. Two new fields have been added to provide a qualitative assessment of the location data. The field labeled “Origin – Accuracy” will be used to document the level of certainty that the location described is the actual point of origin. The field labeled “Location – Method” will be used to document the method by which the location coordinates were determined (from a map, using GPS, etc). The format options for location coordinates have been expanded to include Decimal Degrees and Degrees/Decimal Minutes. As before, Degrees/Minutes/Seconds and UTM are valid formats too. Regardless of the format chosen, WFMI will now accept coordinates with decimal values sufficient to describe the point of origin to sub-foot (for latitude/longitude) or sub-meter (for UTM) precision.

  • Prescribed Fire Lessons Learned
    Prescribed Fire Lessons Learned Escape Prescribed Fire Reviews and Near Miss Incidents Initial Impression Report June 29, 2005 Prepared by Deirdre M. Dether Submitted to Wildland Fire Lessons Learned Center Summary of Escaped Prescribed Fire Reviews and Near Miss Incidents What key lessons have been learned and what knowledge gaps exist? Introduction This analysis is the first known attempt to take a comprehensive look at escaped prescribed fire reviews and near misses. A total of 30 prescribed fire escape reviews and ‘near misses’ (see Appendix A and B) were analyzed to discover what, if any reoccurring lessons were being learned, or whether they were indicating emerging knowledge gaps or trends. It is estimated that Federal land management agencies complete between 4,000 and 5,000 prescribed fires annually. Approximately ninety­nine percent of those burns were ‘successful’ (in that they did not report escapes or near misses). This can be viewed as an excellent record, especially given the elements of risk and uncertainty associated with prescribed fire. However, that leaves 40 to 50 events annually we should learn from. This report is intended to assist in that effort. Evaluating formal reviews and After Action Reviews (AAR) can be a tool for burn personnel to expand their knowledge and supplement their own direct experiences. When reviews go beyond policy and accountability questions they can provide information that can add to our own direct experiences by broadening exposure to what can occur. Learning from other experiences may help avoid undesired outcomes. The intent of this report is not to point out ‘wrong decisions’, but rather it is to use all these individual ‘events’ to see if there are common themes and/or ‘weak signals’ occurring with these escapes and near miss events.

    Abandonment: Abandonment occurs when an emergency responder begins treatment of a patient and the leaves the patient or discontinues treatment prior to arrival of an equally or higher trained responder. Abrasion: A scrape or brush of the skin usually making it reddish in color and resulting in minor capillary bleeding. Absolute Pressure: The measurement of pressure, including atmospheric pressure. Measured in pound per square inch absolute. Absorption: A defensive method of controlling a spill by applying a material that absorbs the spilled material. Accelerant: Flammable fuel (often liquid) used by some arsonists to increase size or intensity of fire. Accelerator: A device to speed the operation of the dry sprinkler valve by detecting the decrease in air pressure resulting in acceleration of water flow to sprinkler heads. Accountability: The process of emergency responders (fire, police, emergency medical, etc...) checking in as being on-scene during an incident to an incident commander or accountability officer. Through the accountability system, each person is tracked throughout the incident until released from the scene by the incident commander or accountability officer. This is becoming a standard in the emergency services arena primarily for the safety of emergency personnel. Adapter: A device that adapts or changes one type of hose thread, type or size to another. It allows for connection of hoses and pipes of incompatible diameter, thread, or gender. May contain combinations, such as a double-female reducer. Adapters between multiple hoses are called wye, Siamese, or distributor. Administrative Warrant: An order issued by a magistrate that grants authority for fire personnel to enter private property for the purpose of conducting a fire prevention inspection or similar purpose.

  • Case Study Do Not Necessarily Represent Those of the Continual Vigilance, Team Training, Operational Process Agency
    National Aeronautics and Space Administration JULY 2007 Volume 1 Issue 7 Rocky Mountain Death Trap Fifteen smokejumpers leapt from a C-47 aircraft on a hot, dry August afternoon in 1949 to engage what was be- lieved to be a routine forest fire burning along the south ridge of the Mann Gulch, a steep, narrow, valley, situated directly east of the Missouri River. Over the next 90 min- utes a complex, confusing, and heroic struggle ensued as the fire, fanned by high winds and downdrafts spread in unexpected ways, cutting off firefighters from their planned river escape path and roaring up the gulch with a wall of flame, superheated air and black boiling smoke. In the end, 13 of the firefighters lost their lives. This tragic event dealt a devastating blow to the Smokejumper program and drastically changed the way the Forest Ser- vice analyzes hazards and how its fire fighters are trained, equipped, led, and deployed.

It also has a secondary application for all-hazard incident response. Some fireline decisions may be relatively simple, many are not. These decisions often require individual judgment and creativity — skills developed through extensive training, dedicated practice, and experience. This guide provides a collection of best practices that have evolved over time within the wildland fire service.
