Introduction
Wildland Fire Management is any work associated with wildland fires in rural and urban areas. Large fires are major incidents that often cross jurisdictional boundaries. Local, state and federal fire agencies have adopted uniform standards, training and operational procedures to better facilitate interagency functionality during fires.
The National Wildfire Coordinating Group (NWCG) is an organization responsible for standardization. All Western Colorado Community College Wildland Fire Management training courses meet NWCG standards.
