State Mobilization Plan History

The State Mobilization Plan was directed to be formed by the Washington State Legislature in the wake of the 1991 Spokane Fire Storm.

The Plan was developed by the

State Fire Defense Committee and was officially adopted in 1994.



State Fire Defense Committee Makes recommendations to the Director or Fire Protection

within the WSP for the development, maintenance and implementation of the Washington State Fire Services Mobilization Plan.

Committee membership consists of:

o Two representatives from each of the nine fire defense regions. o Washington State Fire Marshal. o Emergency Management Division. o Washington State DNR – Resource Protection Division o Washington State Emergency Management Association (WSEMA)



State Fire Defense Committee

Reviews and updates the Mobilization Plan. Assists in locating and tracking fire service resources. Recommends Rate Schedule for the Washington State

Chiefs Association approval.



Fire Defense Regions



Regional Coordinators Maintain current Regional Fire

Resource Lists. Develop and maintain Regional Fire

Defense Plans. Provide a 24-hour point of contact for

resource requests. Assist local Fire Chiefs in submitting

mobilization requests.



Declaring a Mobilization

• Only the Fire Chief of the local fire protection jurisdiction or fire chief's authorized representative has the authority to request state fire services resource mobilization.



Declaring a Mobilization Incident occurs that has, or will expend

local and mutual aid resources

Local Fire Chief notifies regional coordinator. Mobilization requested

through WSP

Mobilization approved by Chief of WSP

Regional Coordinators notified by WSP and resources dispatched to scene

Photographs of additional apparatus types can be found in Section 14 of the Mobilization Plan.



Resource Configurations (1 of 3) Strike Team A Strike Team is five of the same kind of resource, with common communications and a leader.

Structural Strike Team: • 5 Structural Engines • 1 Strike Team Leader

Wildland Strike Team: • 5 Wildland Engines (Type 3-6) • 1 Strike Team Leader

Tender Strike Team: • 5 Water Tenders (Type 1-3) • 1 Strike Team Leader



Resource Configurations (2 of 3) Task Force Resources can be configured into any combination of single resources, within the span of control, assembled for a particular tactical need, with common communications and a leader.

Urban Task Force: • 4 Structural Engines (Type 1-2) • 1 Aerial Ladder • 1 Task Force Leader

Rural Task Force: • 3 Structural Engines (Type 1-2) • 2 Water Tender (Type 1-3) • 1 Task Force Leader

Wildland Task Force: • 5 Wildland Engines (Type 3-6) • 1 Water Tender (Type 1-3) • 1 Task Force Leader

EMS Task Force: • 3 ALS Ambulances • 2 BLS Ambulances • 1 Task Force Leader



Apparatus “wet rate” • All apparatus and equipment are paid as a “wet rate”. A wet

rate is inclusive of all fuel, oil, maintenance, repair, insurance and incidental cost (example ferry transportation and bridge tolls). These costs are paid by the owner (fire agency) and are NOT reimbursable.

• Mechanical failure or physical damage is included in the “wet rate” and is not reimbursable. Examples include: o Mechanical breakdowns (including major items such as

motor, transmission). o Body damage (minor and major) such as scratches, dents

and fender damage. o Incidental loss or damage to apparatus, equipment or

personal property.



Procured Items • Needed items can usually be procured from two areas at Base

Camp: • Communications Unit

o Portable Radios and batteries • Supply Unit (Type1-2 Incidents)

o Hose, Nozzles and Fittings o Personal Protective Equipment o Sleeping Pads, Sleeping Bags o Line Flagging

• With the exception of consumable items (such as flagging tape and replacement foam), procured items must be returned prior to demobe. A good rule of thumb, if you are required to sign for the equipment - you must return it. If you are not sure, please ask!



Unit 5:

Command and Support Structure of a State Mobilization



Unit Objectives

Define “span of control” during a state mobilization incident.

Identify immediate supervisors. Demonstrate an understanding of

basic ICS. Explain whose orders a responder

must follow.



Incident Management Teams The State Fire Marshal will assign an

appropriate level of incident management for each mobilization incident. State Mobilization may be under the command of a: o Type 3 IMT o Type 2 IMT o Type 1 IMT o Unified Command, local Incident

Commander with a Type 1-4 Incident Commander.



Incident Command System (ICS) The State of Washington has

adopted the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and will use the Incident Command System (ICS) to manage all incidents involving State Mobilization resources.

All responding fire service resources should be trained to a minimum of ICS 100 level.



Incident Command System (ICS) This section is not intended to

provide a comprehensive review of ICS and assumes responder familiarity with the system.

The following section is provided to familiarize the responder with the various ICS positions they are likely to interface with during a mobilization incident.



Chain of Command



Communication Flow

incident operation. Managed by the Operations Section Chief. o Interface within the operations section in accordance

with the chain of command as previously identified. Branches Can be used to divide an incident geographically or

functionally- typically used when necessary to manage span of control. Managed by a Branch Director.

Air Operations Branch Responsible for all Air Operations involved in the incident.

o Air Resources within your area of operation are normally requested through the Division Supervisor (via the Strike Team/Task Force Leader)



Operations Section Divisions Used to Divide an incident geographically. Managed by a Division

Supervisor. o Only the Strike Team/Task Force Leader should communicate

directly to the DIVS – except in an emergency where the STL/TFL cannot be reached.

Groups Used to divide an incident by function. Managed by a Group Supervisor.

o See above regarding contact directly to the Group Sup.

Strike Team Five resources of the same type, with common communications and a

leader. Managed by a Strike Team Leader. Task Force Resources configured into any combination of single resources,

assembled for a tactical need, with common communications and a leader. Managed by a Task Force Leader. o Note: Task Force Leaders are commonly assigned to Divisions as

single resources to assist Division Supervisors in maintaining span of control.



Mobilization Representative WSP Mobilization Section Representative Not an ICS position. Assists incident managers:

• Acquiring facilities and supplies • Assist with check-in and work within the Finance Section in the demobilization of

State Mobilization resources. Excellent resource for State Mobilization resources

• Can answer questions regarding payroll and compensation issues. • Can advise and assist responders in the completion of appropriate paperwork. • Can assist with Resource Order Number issues and questions.

apparatus require a new Resource Order Number). Apparatus self-dispatching to an incident may be sent home without compensation.



Unit 6:

Expectations of Mobilization Resources



Unit Objectives

Describe the “assumed commitment” of a state mobilization incident. (Prepare for 72 hours minimum assignment and 24 hours of self-support)

Describe the Immediate Response process. Describe the code of conduct for a state mobilization

incident. Describe the discipline procedures during a state

mobilization incident.



Type of Resource Responses



Time Commitment Initial Attack and Immediate Need resources are usually

released within 12-36 hours. Mobilization assignments are generally for a minimum

of 72-hours and no more than 14 days exclusive of travel.

Personnel must come prepared for a 72-hour minimum assignment – the first 24 hours without logistical support. o Food, water and ice.



Crew Changes Crew changes require 24-hour advanced notice. Must be approved by the Strike Team Leader. Mobilization Section representative shall be advised of

any crew changes. Crew changes involve the people NOT the apparatus.

Apparatus changes are not allowed without pre-authorization of the mobilization section.



Code of Conduct Entails the following qualities:

o Lead by example o Be proficient in your craft o Promote a positive environment o Deal with issues directly o Empower others to solve problems o Treat others as equals and with respect o Expect the best o Share your knowledge

All forms of harassment and discrimination are expressly prohibited.



Code of Conduct Mobilizations are a Drug and Alcohol-Free

Workplace o The manufacture, distribution, dispensing,

possession or use of controlled substances (including alcohol) in the workplace is unlawful in accordance with the Federal Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988.

In addition to criminal prosecution, employees violating this prohibition will be subject to dismissal under the terms of the Fire Mobilization Plan and Fire Mobilization Temporary Employee Certification.



Code of Conduct The policies and work rules of your home

agency govern your conduct. In cases of Sexual Harassment and

Discrimination, the IMT will conduct an investigation and notify your home agency. o Home agency must fully investigate

the accusation of misconduct and notify the mobilization section of the outcome. Failure to investigate may prohibit future department participation in fire mobilization.

Accusations of other misconduct will be referred to your home agency and may result in your immediate demobe from the incident.



Social Media Mobilized personnel must follow both

home agency guidelines and Incident Management Team directions regarding the use of social media.

Remember: o Social Media can generate

destructive rumors amongst the affected population.

o Can expose the responder to legal risk.

o Can facilitate the unauthorized release of information before affected parties have been contacted by authorities.



Unit 7:

Safety Aspects of State Mobilization



Unit Objectives

Identify potential dangers inherent in state mobilization incidents.

Define standard safety procedures/precautions that responders must use.

Describe injury and accident reporting procedures.



Potential Dangers Extreme fire behavior High temperatures Smoke filled environment Limited water supply Downed power lines LPG Tanks Hazardous Materials Animals and Critters (snakes) Poisonous plants Falling Trees, Rolling rocks and logs



Safety Precautions Maintain LCES Adhere to the 10 Standard Fire Orders

and 18 Watch Outs Manage fatigue

o Get adequate rest o Stay hydrated (avoid caffeinated

drinks) Obtain a briefing

o Know who you are working for o Understand your assignment o Acknowledge messages o Ask if you don’t know o Only accept assignments

commensurate with your training and experience level



Safety Precautions

Wildland/Urban Interface Do not commit to stay and protect a structure

unless a safety zone for firefighters and equipment has been identified. o Move to the nearest safety zone, let the fire

front pass, and return as soon as conditions allow.

Base all actions on current and expected fire behavior – Do this first!

Estimate the approaching fire intensity to determine whether there is an adequate safety zone and time available before the fire arrives. If in doubt, move personnel and equipment to safety.

Primary consideration is for the safety of the responders and apparatus!



Safety Precautions

Driving Safety Remain aware of your surroundings. Avoid excessive speed, especially on steep

grades. Headlights on for safety. Increase following distance when traveling in

a strike team. Keep windshields clean. Use emergency lights in heavy smoke or

dust conditions. Use a spotter when backing. Do not drive through heavy smoke where

you cannot see. Use wheel chocks.



Accident / Injury Reporting Vehicle accidents must be

immediately reported to the Division Supervisor and Safety Officer. o The Safety Officer will investigate

and document the accident. Injuries must immediately be

reported to the Division Supervisor who will in turn advise the Medical Unit. o The Medical Unit will provide or

arrange for care of the injured person.



Accident / Injury Reporting An employee of a fire service agency must report the injury to

their home unit within 24 hours and complete and fax the following items to their home unit: o Personal Injury Notice (Appendix M of Mobilization Plan) o Medical Unit Report o Emergency Firefighter Time Report

Career members taken to the hospital should advise the facility that this is an on-duty injury covered by Washington State L&I. o Career members will list their home units as the employer on

the L&I claim form. o Volunteer members will list the Washington State Patrol, Fire

Protection Bureau as their employer. Contact the WSP Mobilization Representative for assistance if

needed.



Unit 8:

Documentation: Record Keeping Systems and Procedures



Unit Objectives

Explain the use and significance of the Incident Order Number and the Request (Resource Order) Number.

Explain individual timekeeping. Identify and demonstrate the completion of required

unit documentation. Explain methods of compensation/reimbursement. Demonstrate state mobilization check-in and check-

out.



Incident Number You will receive an Incident Number. Based off a National System. First two letters indicate state, the next three letters indicate the agency

location. State Mobe uses WA-WFS- followed by a sequential number. Example

WA-WFS-232. This number should be included on Crew and Equipment Time Reports.

Forest Service WA-**F-000 DNR WA-**S-000

Bureau of Indian Affairs WA-**A-000 Bureau of Land Management WA-**D000

US Fish & Wildlife WA-**R-000 National Park Service WA-**P-000

Examples of other federal numbering schemes



Resource Order Number A unique number assigned to each

apparatus by the WSP Mobilization Section.

All resources must have a Resource Order Number.

Shall be placed on the vehicle windshield. The Resource Order Number is the primary

tracking number for the apparatus and personnel – it should be included on both Crew and Equipment Time reports.



Resource Order Number Overhead personnel are issued an “O” number. Equipment w/personnel are issued an “E” number. Aircraft w/personnel are issued an “A” number. Crews are issued a “C” number. Supplies are issued an “S” number.

Example: Strike Team with STL, STL(T) and five engines



Incident Documentation All Equipment

o Mobe Manifest Form All Responders

o Firefighter Time Report o Emergency Firefighter Time Report

(Red Dog) o Equipment Shift Ticket o Emergency Equipment Use Invoice

Volunteer Personnel o W-4 o WSP Waiver

W9 and OFM Payee Registration Form needed for POV use.



Incident Documentation

While examples are provided here, it is recommended that responders receive hands-on instruction by their department’s training officer in the correct completion of mobilization related paperwork.

Correct completion of mobilization paperwork can save you considerable grief at a later date.



Mobilization Manifest Form Used to record personnel and

equipment being sent to an incident either as a single resource or as a strike team/task force.

Use one form per apparatus. Complete the form and email to the WSP Mobilization Section (email on bottom of form).

Present Mobilization Manifest Form at check-in.
