Common use of Fire Notifications Clause in Contracts

Fire Notifications. A Supporting Agency will promptly notify the appropriate Protecting Agency of fires burning on or threatening lands for which that agency has protection responsibility. Local Dispatch Operating Plans shall specify notification procedures and timelines, to include timeframes when final fire reports will be sent to Jurisdictional Agencies. A responding resource or its dispatch center must immediately notify the Jurisdictional Agency’s dispatch center when they are responding to an incident and of suppression actions taken, due to special management and financial considerations. If a responding resource is dispatched through its respective dispatch center to an incident where jurisdiction is unclear, unknown, suspected to lay within the boundaries of another jurisdiction, or suspected to be a “boundary line fire” then every effort for immediate notification to the appropriate Interagency Dispatch Center must be made.
