National Fire Situation Report

Sep 14, 2022 2:53pm, CT
This is the last National Situation Report for 2022.
Level 1
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.
Data provided based on information collected from agencies. Accuracy varies based on individual agency practices, but is typically considered to be rough estimates for daily operations. Final quality control is performed post-season and compiled in other publications.

Shared resources are heavily committed. National mobilization trends affect all Geographic Areas (GA's) and regularly occur over larger and larger distances. National priorities govern resources of all types. Heavy demand on inactive/low activity GA's with low levels of activity for available resources.
  • Significant wildland fire activity is occurring in multiple geographic areas; significant commitment of Incident Management Teams.
  • NICC increasingly engages GACCs in an effort to coordinate and fill orders for available resources.
  • Potential for significant incidents emerging in multiple GA’s indicates that resource demands will continue or increase.
