Firefighters QR Scan for IMT5 Email continue to monitor the fire line and extinguish any hot spots from north of Updates: Junction City to Cedar Gulch. Near Barker Valley Road firefighters are proceeding with additional mop-up operations in an area of concentrated heat. West of Cedar Gulch, snag removal, hazard mitigation and continued strengthening of the line along Hyampom Road are a priority for today. CAL FIRE Incident Management Team 5 is meeting daily with Trinity County Sherriff’s office, CHP, California Interagency Incident Management Team 5, assisting agencies and stakeholders to evaluate the existing evacuation warnings and orders. The goal is to safely repopulate these communities in collaboration as soon as possible. Northern California has experienced large fire activity and will likely experience an extended fire season. Fires burning in northern California are exhibiting extreme fire growth based on critical fuel conditions. The prioritization of resources is always based on life, property, and natural resources. Under these drought conditions, wildfires are burning rapidly with extreme severity and have traveled up to 8 miles in a single day. Fire spread is fuel driven and does not depend on wind speed, as we have seen in previous years. Firefighters are experiencing conditions never seen before, such as increased rates of spread, spotting and active nighttime burning. We coordinate very closely with the US Forest Service and CalOES for our local and out of state partners, to ensure resources are shared.

    Lassen & Plumas National Forests Burned Area Emergency Response (BAER) Post-Fire BAER Assessment August 27, 2021 BAER Information: (707) 853-4243 PHASE 1--DIXIE POST-FIRE BAER SOIL BURN SEVERITY MAP RELEASED Due to the large size and continual active burning of the Dixie Fire, the Burned Area Emergency Response (BAER) team divided the burned area into two phases for their assessment and analysis. BAER specialists recently completed their data gathering and analysis for Phase 1 of the Dixie burned area to produce a Phase 1 soil burn severity (SBS) map on August 25—analyzing 365,678 acres. The map and the data display SBS categories of unburned/very low, low, moderate, and high. Approximately 43% of the 365,678 acres are either unburned/very low and/or low soil burn severity, while 52% sustained a moderate soil burn severity and only about 5% identified as high soil burn severity. The SBS map also shows the acreage for each of the landowners for the 365,678 acres in the Phase 1 assessment to be: 176,460 acres for the Plumas National Forest; 93,466 acres for the Lassen National Forest; 94,648 acres of private/unknown lands; 889 acres for the State of California-Department of Fish and Game; 98 acres for the USDI Bureau of Land Management; 67 acres for the USDI Bureau of Indian Affairs; and 50 acres for the State of California-Lands Commission. The low category of soil burn severity indicate that there was only partial consumption of fine fuels and litter coverage remains relatively intact on the soil surface.

  • French Fire Update – September 5, 2021
    Fire Information: 760-515-7922 (8am to 8pm) Inciweb: https://inciweb.nwcg.gov/incident/7813/ French Fire Update – September 5, 2021 Acreage: 26,493 Containment: 52% Total Personnel: 1,112 The French Fire started on Wednesday, August 18, west of Lake Isabella in Kern County, and has now burned 26,493 acres with 52 percent containment. A National Incident Management Team (NIMO) is managing the fire, integrated with Great Basin IMT 6 and coordinating closely with the Bureau of Land Management, Sequoia National Forest, and Kern County Fire Department in Unified Command. ● Smoke may be visible today as crews work to complete burnout operations in the Cedar Creek and Alder Creek area using a combination of ground and aerial resources. Crews are constructing direct handline north of Red Mountain from Bear Creek to Alder Creek. ● On the north side of the fire, crews continue to mop up, seeking out and eliminating any remaining heat sources that could threaten the line. ● The Structure Group is patrolling and mopping up around infrastructure within the fire’s interior, including Alta Sierra, Shirley Meadows, the Shirley Peak communication hub, and the Southern California Edison 66kV sub-transmission lines north of Hwy 155. These crews are also cutting down unsafe (hazard) trees and preparing the areas for residents to return. ● Crews are successfully mopping up to the north from Basket Pass to Evans Meadow which allowed for an increase in containment in this area. ● The east side of the fire is looking very good. Crews will continue to mop up and patrol. ● Very dry conditions predicted into next week.

Heavy vegetation, snags, and steep terrain make it difficult to access the fires edge. Threats to infrastructure on Case Mountain, the Hockett Ranger Station, Peck’s Cabin, Buffalo Cabin, several sequoia groves and wilderness values within Sequoia National Park continue. Hockett Meadow ranger station and other structures in South Fork are being prepped for fire protection wrap. Crews are working to stop the fire from spreading and will focus on securing the perimeter and building contingency line along Mineral King Road to Case Mountain. As the temperatures start to cool and the smoke begins to clear, fire activity is expected to increase. The potential for smoke columns starting to form near Homers Nose may be seen in the South Fork and Three Rivers areas. With clear visibility, there will be an increased use of aircraft and helicopters to focus on dropping water and fire retardant in the areas most at risk. Tulare County Sheriff’s Office has issued an evacuation order on October 6 for everything south of the intersection of the Cinnamon Canyon Road and South Fork Drive, including Cinnamon Canyon.

  • Southern California Fires
    Cleveland National Forest Burned Area Emergency Response (BAER) Post-Fire BAER Assessment September 22, 2020 BAER Information: (707) 853-4243 PREPARING FOR RAINSTORMS While many wildfires cause minimal damage to the land and pose few threats to the land or people downstream, some fires cause damage that requires special efforts to prevent problems afterwards. Wildfire increases the potential for flooding, post-fire soil erosion and debris flows that could impact homes, structures, campgrounds, aquatic dependent plants and animals, roads, and other infrastructure within, adjacent to, and downstream from the burned area. Post-fire watershed conditions will naturally receive and transport water and sediment differently than during pre-fire conditions. Monsoonal storms bring heavy rain and rapid runoff from burned areas. Residents and visitors should remain alert to weather events and plan ahead when travelling along roads and trails within and downstream from the burned areas on the Cleveland National Forest (NF). The Forest Service Burned Area Emergency Response (BAER) team working with the Cleveland NF to assess post fire conditions of the watersheds on federal land that were burned in the Valley Fire. The BAER assessment team identifies potential emergency threats to critical values-at-risk and recommends emergency stabilization response actions that are implemented on federal lands to reduce potential threats. For values and resources potentially impacted off National Forest System lands, one of the most effective BAER strategies is its interagency coordination with local cooperators who assist affected businesses, homes, and landowners prepare for rain events. The Forest Service and Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) work together and coordinate with other federal, state, and local agencies, and counties that assist private landowners in preparing for increased run-off and potential flooding.

  • Twenty-First Century California, USA, Wildfires: Fuel-Dominated Vs. Wind- Dominated Fires Jon E
    Keeley and Syphard Fire Ecology (2019) 15:24 Fire Ecology https://doi.org/10.1186/s42408-019-0041-0 FORUM Open Access Twenty-first century California, USA, wildfires: fuel-dominated vs. wind- dominated fires Jon E. Keeley1,2* and Alexandra D. Syphard3 Abstract Since the beginning of the twenty-first century California, USA, has experienced a substantial increase in the frequency of large wildfires, often with extreme impacts on people and property. Due to the size of the state, it is not surprising that the factors driving these changes differ across this region. Although there are always multiple factors driving wildfire behavior, we believe a helpful model for understanding fires in the state is to frame the discussion in terms of bottom-up vs. top-down controls on fire behavior; that is, fires that are clearly dominated by anomalously high fuel loads from those dominated by extreme wind events. Of course, this distinction is somewhat artificial in that all fires are controlled by multiple factors involving fuels, winds, and topography. However, we believe that fires clearly recognizable as fuel-dominated vs. wind-dominated provide interesting case studies of factors behind these two extremes. These two types of fires differ greatly in their (1) geographical distribution in the state, (2) past fire history, (3) prominent sources of ignition, (4) seasonal timing, (5) resources most at risk, and (6) requirement for different management responses. Keywords: fire prevention, fire suppression, fuel loads, house protection, land planning, North Winds, population growth, Santa Ana Winds, silvicultural practices Resumen Desde comienzos del siglo veinte, California, EEUU, ha experimentado un incremento substancial en la frecuencia de grandes incendios, frecuentemente con grandes impactos en la gente y en las propiedades.

  • Ice Fire October 21St Morning Update
    United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service San Juan National Forest 15 Burnett Court News Release Durango, CO 81301 Media Contacts: (970)247-4874 Andy Lyon www.fs.usda.gov/sanjuan/ [email protected] (970) 426-5491 Esther Godson [email protected] (970) 422-2671 Ice Fire October 21st Morning Update Silverton, Colo., October 21, 2020 – Firefighters plan to “go direct” along a portion of the fire’s edge today to try and gain further control of the Ice Fire. “Going direct” means extinguishing the fire at its active edge, rather than waiting for it to reach an established control feature like a road. However other parts of the fire are in steep, difficult terrain and crews plan to use helicopters dropping water, to slow the fire’s spread in those areas. One objective is to keep it from spreading toward US Highway 550 and another is to keep it north of the South Fork Mineral Creek Road. The fire’s size was estimated at 508 acres last night and is 15% contained. The fire is in the South Mineral Creek drainage, about five miles west of Silverton. The cause of the fire is unknown and under investigation. A virtual community meeting on the fire will be presented tonight at 6:00 p.m. via Zoom conference. The Zoom link is: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88637487127 and the dial-in # is: 669-900-6833. The Webinar ID is: 886 3748 7127. A forest area closure is in effect for the area of the fire on the San Juan National Forest.

  • Grant County Risk Assessment Summary
    Section 3: Grant County Risk Assessment Summary The foundation of the Northeast Oregon Multi-Jurisdictional Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan is the risk assessment. Risk assessments provide information about the areas where the hazards may occur, the value of existing land and property in those areas, and an analysis of the potential risk to life, property, and the environment that may result from natural hazard events. This section identifies and profiles the location, extent, previous occurrences, and future probability of natural hazards that can impact the community, as highlighted in Figure 3.1 below. The information in this section was paired with the information in Appendix G – Community Profiles during the planning process in order to identify issues and develop actions aimed at reducing the community’s overall risk, or the area of overlap in the figure below. Figure 3.1. Understanding Risk Source: Oregon Natural Hazards Workgroup, 2006 This section addresses local level information and risks the community faces. In addition to local data, the information here relies upon the Regional Risk Assessment in the State Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan. Additionally, detailed risk assessment information on existing policies, programs and reports for each hazard are included in the individual hazard annexes located at the end of the plan. Northeast Oregon Multi-Jurisdictional Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan Page 3-1 What is a Risk Assessment? A risk assessment consists of three phases: hazard identification, vulnerability assessment, and risk analysis, as illustrated in the following graphic. Source: Planning for Natural Hazards: Oregon Technical Resource Guide The first phase, hazard identification, involves identification of the geographic extent of a hazard, its intensity, and its probability of occurrence.
