Wildland Team

The Wildland Firefighting Team is responsible for mitigating incidents in areas that are normally very difficult for standard equipped firefighters. This team is specially trained to deal with incidents in open space areas and heavily wooded areas. These incidents usually are not immediately detected causing the fire to grow very large by the time firefighters arrive. These incidents have very large fuel loads and can rapidly advance into homes or neighborhoods.
