  • A Look at Wildland Firefighting Tools Fighting a Wildfire Safely Means
    Tools of the Trade – A Look At Wildland Firefighting Tools Fighting a wildfire safely means using the right tools for the job. There are a variety of wildland firefighting hand-operated tools in use today. Wherever water sources are available, heavy fire hoses with nozzles are hard to beat when it comes to suppressing wildfires, or most fires for that matter. But away from roads, fire engines and water tenders, using water to fight wildfires becomes more challenging for firefighters on foot. There are many portable water pumps today. Some float… others can be easily carried from place to place…even drafting from shallow and muddy water sources. These two-stroke pumps are made for demanding use on the fireline. The heaviest pumps are usually taken apart when carried from place to place. Fire hose comes in rolled sections of 50 and 100 feet, and in different sizes. In places where a water source is minimal or far from the firelines, conserving water with smaller diameter fire hoses is best. Away from roads, water pumps and hose supplies are delivered by helicopter, boats, even airplanes dropping paracargo. And where fire hoses can’t reach, collapsible bladder bags with hand- operated nozzles are a big help. Whether using water or not, wildland firefighters carry an array of tools to saw…chop…dig… swat…and scrape vegetation away from the flames. In many places, firefighters will construct a narrow path around the fire’s perimeter, free of vegetation. This ‘fireline’ prevents flames from spreading on the ground, as crews work to encircle the fire.

  • Prescribed Burn Equipment
    Oklahoma Cooperative Extension Service NREM-2899 Prescribed Burn Equipment November 2016 John R. Weir Oklahoma Cooperative Extension Fact Sheets Research Associate, Natural Resource Ecology and Management, are also available on our website at: Oklahoma State University http://osufacts.okstate.edu R. Seth Coffey Graduate Research Assistant, Natural Resource Ecology and Man- agement, Oklahoma State University Carol E. Blocksome Research Assistant Professor, Horticulture and Natural Resources, Kansas State University Morgan L. Russell Extension Range Specialist, Ecosystem Science and Manage- ment, Texas A&M Agrilife Extension Service Dirac Twidwell Assistant Professor, Department of Agromony and Horticulture, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Introduction Having proper or adequate equipment on a prescribed fire is just as important as writing burn plans, firebreak prepa- rations or having the correct weather conditions. Oftentimes, burn managers will make equipment checklists prior to the burn; ensuring all needs have been met. Equipment may range from what the crew should wear to the type of pumper unit one might have on a fire. In planning a prescribed burn, one of the most important steps is considering what equipment is needed to properly protect the burn crew and contain the fire. There is no standard equipment list for conducting a burn. However, it is important to consider all equipment that could be used to make the prescribed burn safer and easier. When determining what equipment is needed it is best to go by the adage of “better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.” Always remember no two burns are the same and each burn can require different pieces of equipment.
