Two-Acre Brush Fire

It's going to be our best access point for this fire.

 Additionally, I marked it on the map, if you like to copy command.

 Can we relocate you off of Heritage Road and try to gain access over by the amphitheater?

 I'm on scene with Brush 43 at the St. David unit.

It's going to be our best access point for this fire. Additionally, I marked it on the map, if you like to copy command. Okay, I copy. Break, Engine 59, did you copy direct? Can we relocate you off of Heritage Road and try to gain access over by the amphitheater? That's affirmative. I'm on scene with Brush 43 at the St. David unit.

Responders are relocating to gain better access to the fire near the amphitheater.

 Just want to make sure you maintain good safety, and if you're not able to anchor the fire,

 then we want to be mindful about not engaging, putting ourselves in harm's way.

 Additionally, all units assigned right now to the Pogo incident,

Operatus 829, copy. Brush 43 from IC. Just want to make sure you maintain good safety, and if you're not able to anchor the fire, then we want to be mindful about not engaging, putting ourselves in harm's way. We do have Copter 3 that's en route. Additionally, all units assigned right now to the Pogo incident, if you have...

Helicopter support is en route to assist with the brush fire. Firefighters are prioritizing safety while engaging.

 We'd be fighting fire on the mid-float, pretty dirty burn.

 Not really willing to commit down there.

 I want to commit resources to the east on Pogo Road.

 I believe it's going to be best access through type 3s.

XSD Alpha Golf 3. Battalion 52, Engine 60. Go ahead. We made access to this flank. We'd be fighting fire on the mid-float, pretty dirty burn. Not really willing to commit down there. Yeah, I agree. I want to commit resources to the east on Pogo Road. I believe it's going to be best access through type 3s. We're...

Firefighters have accessed one flank of the fire but are focusing resources on the east side for better access.

Bogo IC from Engine 59, you want us to follow them in?

 I think that's going to be a safer location to anchor the fire and start attacking it.

 It's steep terrain from up here that they're going to be fighting fire downhill.

 Brush 43, looks like you're turning around, so we'll come back out this way.

Bogo IC from Engine 59, you want us to follow them in? Engine 59, hold your position. Coming to the drainage. I think that's going to be a safer location to anchor the fire and start attacking it. It's steep terrain from up here that they're going to be fighting fire downhill. Okay, I copy. Brush 43, looks like you're turning around, so we'll come back out this way. Brush 43 copies. We'll do a face-to-face with you.

Yeah, can you pull past Battalion 6? We're going to see if we can make access a little bit further to the east. It sounds like there's a dirt road further east and maybe a safer location to access. I'm going to send you and Brush 43 down to see if we can access and anchor the fire.

Firefighters are coordinating to find a safer access point to anchor and attack the brush fire.

 I did send them down the road in your direction.

 Is that still a good plan for at least one type 3?

 If you can hold all resources at your location, let's have them turn around and then head past you down Pogo Road.

 And it appears there's an access road past the buildings of the...

Battalion 52, IC TAC. Go ahead. Looks like Brush 43 just made access. I did send them down the road in your direction. Is that still a good plan for at least one type 3? Negative. If you can hold all resources at your location, let's have them turn around and then head past you down Pogo Road. And it appears there's an access road past the buildings of the...

just based on the drainage and helping us cut this out. I'm trying to scout to see if there's a better location of...

access point. But right now, we're going to have to fight the fire downhill, which...

 If you want to just stage all incoming resources right now, I don't think that access point is going to be the best.

 I'm identifying some fire roads that we can get some type 3s in there if you just want to stand by.

 It's just slowly back burning down in the drainage and then up to the ridge line.

 There's no structures threatened at this point.

Togo IC, Battalion 52, on TAC. Gopher IC. Okay, just an update on conditions. You have a one to two acre fire. It's in a steep drainage with difficult access. I'd recommend if the copter can fly to help take some of the heat out of it, if they can get overhead and evaluate if they can make any drops. It is a slow rate of spread and medium to heavy fuel. I would recommend probably two to three hours.

Metro, Medic 26, any BLS available for this level 3?

 You can make a left right into the gate here, up about 25, 30 yards in front of you.

 medium to heavy fuel with a slow rate of spread.

 Confirming, you thought two type 3 strike teams and two hand crews, is that correct,

 If the hand crews are available, I think they'll really assist.
