There is an immediate
need for middle management positions in the operations section including
division group supervisors and heavy equipment bosses. This is due to the fire activity and fire fighting resource needs in the Great Basin area and other parts of the county. Wildfire conditions are expected to remain high or increase through the remainder of the summer according to the National Association of State Foresters.
The Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control has been asked to
communicate the request to make those employees with critically needed
qualifications available for national dispatch. As a reminder, ROSS is the
system of use for this situation. Available resources should already have an
approved CRFF, already be in IQS, and already be in ROSS. The resources should
then status themselves accordingly.
If you have any questions,
please contact Vaughn Jones, Deputy Chief of Wildland Fire Operations, Division
of Fire Prevention and Control at: vaughn.jones@cdps.state.co.us.
