E N D
Remember Your Primary Objective • Mitigate fire suppression-caused damage to as close to pre-fire conditions as is reasonably possible • Special note for road repairs: Assess how the road was drained before the fire & work towards establishing similar drainage; consider if basic drainage improvements can be made. DO NOT mitigate pre-fire road drainage problems
MONITOR YOUR PROGRESS: • Maintain task / inventory lists • Track your progress • Use FLSR-specific map from GIS • Spot check for quality control • Keep Command Staff briefed • Use digital photography for before and after photos
MAINTAIN TASK / INVENTORY LIST • Use a continuous work sheet • Identify repair sites on map • GPS waypoints • Location description (lat / long) • Repair Details (description & type of equipment needed; include potential hazards) • Equipment time estimate • Take sufficient notes as if you will not be at the incident ever again
STAY ORGANIZED • Develop a drop file • Keep FLSR Plan handy & make plenty of extra copies • Keep a current IAP handy • Establish a check out / in table – accountability is critical for safety • Staff assignments w/ radio identifier, actual FLSR work / equipment assigned, cell phone # (do not rely on T-card info!)
STAY ORGANIZED • Develop FLSR-specific phone lists • CAL FIRE • Agency cooperators • Landowner cooperators • Hired Equipment
STAY ORGANIZED • Develop & maintain a calendar which tracks FLSR staff scheduling (days off) • Work closely with Hired Equipment Tech Spec • Work with FSC on damage claims
IMPLEMENT WORK PRIORITIES • Watercourse crossing removal • Proper line drainage near watercourses • Proper line drainage on steep slopes • Proper line drainage in assoc. w/ slides • Mitigate BLM, DFG Eco Reserves, DPR lands
TRACK YOUR PROGRESS • Provide daily work assignments (ICS 204) • End of shift debriefing • Update master list (spread sheet) or map • Participate in planning meetings
TRACK YOUR PROGRESS • Stay flexible • Surprises, new discoveries do occur with FLSR • Be prepared to adapt
SPOT CHECK FOR QUALITY CONTROL • Conduct field inspections (use before photos as comparison) • Talk with landowners • Talk with OSC / Division Supervisors • Public comments or public input (you will receive it!)
KEEP COMMAND STAFF BRIEFED • Address progress at planning meetings • Provide plan updates to PLANS and IAP if requested • Specialized briefings: • IC • Plans Chief • Unit Chief • PIO • Liaison Officer • Cooperators
