National Preparedness Level Level 1

Description

Agencies accomplish incident management objectives utilizing local resources with little or no CIFFC support. There is little risk of drawing down capability in the agencies to support incident operations.

Conditions are not favorable to support significant wildland fire activity in most agencies.
Resource capability is adequate with little or no mobilization of resources occurring through CIFFC.
Potential for emerging significant wildland fires is expected to remain minimal.

Summary

Geographic Areas accomplish incident management objectives utilizing local resources with little or no national support.

Conditions are not favorable to support significant wildland fire activity in most geographic areas.
Resource capability is adequate with little or no mobilization of resources occurring through the National Interagency Coordination Center.
Potential for emerging significant wildland fires is expected to remain minimal.
