NARRATIVE 2013 PUEBLO INTERAGENCY DISPATCH CENTER ANNUAL REPORT
NARRATIVE 2013 PUEBLO INTERAGENCY DISPATCH CENTER ANNUAL REPORT
NARRATIVE • The Pueblo Interagency Dispatch Zone experienced an average fire season during 2013, with an above average amount of large fires within a short period of time. The zone also experienced large scale flooding, affecting several counties. Interagency coordination was activated to support community efforts. For the first time in several years Kansas had only one large fire compared to the average of ten. • Colorado fuels continued to show drought stricken reading throughout the winter. The San Luis Valley had the first large fire (April 29 th Stockade) in Conejos County/San Luis District-BLM for 918 acres. This fire was the first of 5 large fires for the San Luis Valley. • • June held the largest activity for the Pueblo Dispatch Center. It supported and mobilized 14 Incident Management teams for 8 large fires between the dates of June 11 through June 20 th. • On June 11 in a span of three hours we started support of the Royal Gorge, Black Forest and Klikus fires. All three fires occurred in urban settings with immediate evacuations and team orders. • The next surge of fires occurred on June 19 th; the start of Lime Gulch, Bull Gulch, East Peak, Papoose (West Fork Complex).
NARRATIVE � The utilization and coordination of aviation assets for initial attack and large fire support, lead to the success of safe fire suppression within the zone. The usage of the Pueblo Reload Tanker Base provided Colorado the opportunity to utilize the VLAT (Very Large Air Tanker) and MAFFS (Modular Airborn Firefighting Systems) programs. � Pueblo Dispatch activated expanded dispatch for 50 days and ran 24 hour staffing for 63 days. We started 7 day staffing in April and ended in November. We successfully filled our Center Manager Position (Tammy Milton) and the Rio Grande 18/8 dispatch position (Kymberli Hoffman) fulfilling dispatch vacancies. � On the Horizon, the dispatch center staff continues to support the partnerships with agency dispatch centers and OEM offices. We will continue to host our yearly Pueblo Zone Workshop providing interaction and training to county dispatchers and OEM personnel. A special thanks to all the agencies, the Pueblo Zone Fire Board and Dispatchers that assisted the center this year. �
