11/30/16 Coordinating Resources in the Southern Area

Dave Martin, Deputy Operations – Southern Area Fire and Aviation Management

Our task is assisting with coordinating the placement of moving all resources throughout the region.  These ground and aviation resources are coordinated and assigned based on incident needs and priorities.  A recent example of this is the Chimney Top 2 Fire in Tennessee.  The coordination that quickly took place resulted in a plane load of crews, that was headed home, was turned around to assist in Gatlinburg.
