INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SITUATION REPORT
THURSDAY, JUNE 1, 2000 - 0530 MDT
NATIONAL PREPAREDNESS LEVEL III
CURRENT SITUATION:
New large fires were reported in the Southern Area. Crews made good
progress on several of the large fires in the Four Corners area. Initial
attack activity was moderate in Florida and light throughout the rest of
the country. The National Interagency Coordination Center mobilized
helicopters, an air attack plane, infrared aircraft, a caterer, a
commissary unit, radios, RAWS equipment, crews, and miscellaneous
overhead. Very high to extreme fire indices were reported in New Mexico,
Arizona, Utah, Colorado, California, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and
Minnesota.
SOUTHWEST AREA LARGE FIRES:
An Area Command Team (Harbour) is assigned to manage the large fires in
northern Arizona.
VIVEASH, Santa Fe National Forest. A Type I Incident Management Team
(Bateman) is assigned. This fire is burning in ponderosa pine and mixed
conifer five miles northwest of Pecos, NM. The fire spread on the north
and east perimeters and spotted into the head of Gallinas Canyon. Crews
and dozers made significant progress on the south and west flanks of the
fire. One barn and three ranch outbuildings have been confirmed
destroyed.
PUMPKIN, Kaibab National Forest. A Type II Incident Management Team
(Anderson) is assigned. The fire is 25 miles northwest of Flagstaff, AZ.
The fire made a easterly run within the wilderness fanned by strong,
shifting winds. Fire activity is also increasing around Kendrick Lookout
and cabin. Burnout operations have successfully buffered private lands
and structures from the fire. Crews are preparing for more firing
operations.
CERRO GRANDE COMPLEX, Bandelier National Park. An Area Command Team
(Edrington) and two Type II Incident Management Teams (Praytor and Carr)
are assigned. The fire is near Los Alamos, NM. Fire activity increased
with afternoon heating, but very little torching or spread is occurring.
Isolated smokes still persist in some unburned islands within the fire
perimeter. Construction of fireline and aggressive mop up continues
between Santa Clara Canyon and Cerro Grande.
SOUTHERN AREA LARGE FIRES:
RETENTION POND, Florida State Division of Forestry. The fire is burning
in swampland in Orange County, FL. The current threat is that a shift in
wind direction could push the fire toward a subdivision.
BASS HIGHWAY, Florida State Division of Forestry. The fire is in Osceola
county, south of Orlando. Voluntary evacuation of three subdivisions
occurred yesterday, but residents have now returned home. The fire was
caused by a vehicle.
TOWER, Everglades National Park. This fire is in Dade County, FL.
Favorable winds assisted crews in completing a burnout operation. The
fire received light rain. Containment was expected last night.
CARLTON RESERVE, Florida State Division of Forestry. The fire is ten
miles northwest of Port Charlotte, FL. No new information was reported.
SWILLEY COMMAND, Florida State Division of Forestry. The fire is in
Hillsborough County, east of Tampa, FL. No new information was reported.
HOLEYLAND, Florida State Division of Forestry. This fire is burning in
grass and swampland at the Holeyland Wildlife Management Area, 40 miles
northwest of Ft. Lauderdale, FL. No new information was reported.
GREEN SWAMP COMPLEX, Florida State Division of Forestry. This complex
includes all the state fires in Citrus, Sumter, Hernando, Pasco, and Lake
counties. Fires over 100 acres (with acreage in parenthesis) include:
CHAIN LINK (2,507), GREEN SWAMP GROVE (550), USDA (131), DM (700), DW
(100), CROOKED PINES (100), and SLOANS RIDGE (112). No new information
was reported.
ROCKY MOUNTAIN AREA LARGE FIRES:
HALEY, Grand Mesa-Uncompahgre-Gunnison NF. The fire is 20 miles north of
Nucla, CO on the Uncompahgre National Forest. The fire is burning in
ponderosa pine, sage and oakbrush. Strong winds continue to push the fire
to the northwest and northeast.
TAYLOR/YANKS, Craig District BLM. These two fires are now being managed
together. The fires are burning in cheatgrass and pinyon-juniper six miles
east of Rangely, CO. Crews are making good progress building fireline.
BOSQUE, Las Animas County. A Type II Incident Management Team (Hartman)
is assigned. This fire is 24 miles west of Trinidad, CO. Observed fire
behavior includes torching, small runs and backing. Significant progress
has been made toward containment.
EASTERN GREAT BASIN LARGE FIRES:
SWEETWATER, Vernal Field Office, BLM. A Type II Incident Management Team
(Shell) is assigned. The fire is located about 50 miles southeast of
Vernal, UT. Strong winds and low relative humidities caused major fire
activity. One spot fire has crossed Bitter Creek. Limited access, heavy
fuels and difficult terrain are challenging containment efforts.
FISHER, Moab Field Office, BLM. This fire is burning in brush and
pinyon-juniper fuels 20 miles southeast of Moab, UT. Burnout operations
yesterday were successful. This will be the last report unless
significant activity occurs.
OUTLOOK:
*** A RED FLAG WARNING IS POSTED IN THE SACRAMENTO VALLEY OF NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA FOR LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITIES AND STRONG WINDS ***
*** A FIRE WEATHER WATCH IS POSTED IN CENTRAL FLORIDA AND IN CENTRAL AND
EASTERN SOUTH CAROLINA FOR LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITIES ***
Arizona, New Mexico, southern Utah, and southern Colorado will be partly
cloudy and not as windy. Isolated afternoon thunderstorms will occur over
the mountains in the Four Corners area. High temperatures will range from
the 70's in the northern mountains up to 110 in the deserts. Winds will
be southwest at 10 to 20 mph west of the Rockies, and east at 10 to 15 mph
east of the Rockies. Minimum relative humidities will be from 5 to 15
percent in desert areas, and from 15 to 30 percent in higher elevations.
California will be sunny except for morning clouds and fog along the
coast. Temperatures will be from the mid 60's in coastal areas up to 110
in the deserts. Winds in the Sacramento Valley will be north to east at
15 to 25 mph. Southern California will have southwest to west winds at 10
to 15 mph. Minimum relative humidities along the coast will be 40 to 50
percent. Inland, humidities will be from 10 to 25 percent.
Florida will be partly cloudy with a chance of showers and thunderstorms
in the panhandle and in the extreme southern part of the state. High
temperatures will range from the mid 80's to the mid 90's. Winds will be
east at 5 to 10 mph. Minimum relative humidities will be 35 percent in
Central Florida and up to 50 percent elsewhere.
Central and eastern South Carolina will be sunny with high temperatures of
85 to 95. Minimum relative humidities will be 30 percent.

...TROPICAL STORM FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED THROUGH SATURDAY.
Thanks to everyone who responded to our request for information about
joining DMORT. I expect that as a result of the information that DMORT's
around the country will get several new members.
from the May 22 "Chemical and Engineering News", Page 27:
"...Although the fire missed structures that hold radioactive materials,
smoke from the fire was found to be three times more radioactive than
expected. Lab officials were examining monitoring data to determine its
significance, accourding to newspaper accounts, as well as looking into
what may happen later this year when summer rains sweep down the lab's
now-burned canyons, some of which may be contaminated with radioactive
materials from past activities."

Heat signatures (red) are visible from a number of fires burning in
southeastern Alabama, southern Georgia, and northern Florida.. Additional
fires may be obscured by clouds or have heat signatures too small to be
detected by the 1 km resolution of NOAA-14.
