INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SITUATION REPORT
TUESDAY, AUGUST 15, 2000 - 0530 MDT
NATIONAL PREPAREDNESS LEVEL V
CURRENT SITUATION:
Fifteen new large fires were reported, including five in Eastern Great
Basin and four in the Northern Rockies Area. Crews reached containment
goals on three fires in Nevada and four in other areas. Initial attack
activity was light to moderate in all areas, but holdover fires continue
to be discovered in Wyoming and Montana. Forecast gusty winds throughout
the northern Great Basin and Rocky Mountain states today will challenge
firelines on many of the large fires. Mobilization of available aircraft,
crews, equipment and overhead continues through the National Interagency
Coordination Center. The total number of acres burned this year is more
than twice the ten year average. Very high to extreme fire indices have
been reported in all 11 western states, plus Texas and North Dakota.
NORTHERN ROCKIES AREA LARGE FIRES:
An Area Command Team (Edrington) is assigned to manage the large fires in
the Hamilton area. An Area Command Team (Mann) is assigned to manage the
large fires in southwestern Montana. An Area Command Team (Meuchel) is
assigned to manage the large fires in central Montana. Priorities are
being established by the Northern Rockies Multi-Agency Coordinating Group
based on information submitted via Wildfire Situation Analysis reports and
Incident Status Summary (ICS-209) forms. BLODGETT TRAILHEAD, Bitterroot
National Forest. A Type I Incident Management Team (Gage) is assigned.
This fire is three miles northwest of Hamilton, MT. Moderate downslope
spread into the upper portions of Sheafman Creek drainages has occurred.
The fire continues to move up Canyon Creek, burning both the canyon bottom
and the upper slopes. Fire activity is more vigorous above 6000 feet
elevation.
VALLEY COMPLEX, Bitterroot National Forest. A Type I Incident Management
Team (Frye) is assigned. A Canadian Type I Incident Management Team
(Myer) has been ordered. These fires are seven miles south of Darby, MT.
Progress has been made on the northeast corner of the Bear fire during the
night operational periods. Actions are focused on structure protection in
the Sleeping Child, Little Sleeping Child, East Fork, Springer, Bonanza,
West Fork, Hughes Creek and Lost Trail Pass areas, where approximately 800
residences are threatened.
SULA COMPLEX, Bitterroot National Forest. A Type II Incident Management
Team (Corbin) is assigned. The fires in this complex, located near Sula,
MT, include the Maynard, Spade, Slate, Full Circle and Taylor Springs

Management Team (Cook) is assigned. The complex consists of 24 fires in
the Selway-Bitterroot and Frank Church River of No Return Wildernesses, 40
miles southwest of Hamilton, MT. The Throng fire is growing to the
northeast and is expected to join the Lonely fire within a few days.
Three Bears continues to burn east and will likely burn into the Hamilton
fire soon. The Jack and Echo fires are also actively growing. A heavy
smoke layer is making observation difficult.
THOMPSON FLAT COMPLEX, Lolo National Forest. A Type II Incident
Management Team (Hoff) is assigned. This is a complex of six fires within
three miles of Superior, MT. Crews have made excellent progress with
burnout operations along the mouth of Johnson Creek. The Landowner fire

burnout operation has been completed around several homes in the Trout
Creek drainage.
RYAN GULCH, Southwestern Land Office, Montana Department of Natural
Resources and Conservation. A Type I Incident Management Team (Melton) is
assigned. This fire is 12 miles southeast of Clinton, MT. Strong, gusty
west winds have enabled the fire to make substantial gains to the east,
crossing containment lines and spotting across Interstate 90. The
Interstate was temporarily closed due to dense smoke and suppression
activities within the corridor. Structure protection plans are being
developed for residences within the Bear Creek area.
UPPER NINEMILE COMPLEX, Lolo National Forest. A Type I Incident
Management Team (Bennett) is assigned. The Army's 20th Engineers
Battalion from Ft. Hood, Texas, commanded by LTC Shumway, is assigned.
These fires are burning near Huson, MT. The South Fork Nemote #4 fire has
escaped dozer lines and made a run in Dry Creek. The Marion fire has
almost burned into the east flank of the Ninemile fire. Both the Alpine
and the Ninemile fires have spotted over containment lines.
CLEAR CREEK DIVIDE COMPLEX, Flathead Agency, BIA. A Type I Incident
Management Team (MacGregor) is assigned. This complex, 60 miles northwest

column. Structure protection and evacuation plans for the Bob Marshall
Wilderness are being coordinated with personnel from the Flathead National
Forest.

Resources and Conservation. A Type I Incident Management Team (Humphrey)
is assigned. This complex, three miles northeast of Basin, MT, consists
of the Boulder Hill and High Ore Road fires. Fire activity has been
limited to isolated flare-ups in unburned areas. Crews are making good

Incident Management Team (Swope) is assigned. This complex includes the

of minor columns. Spots across the East Fork of the Bitterroot River
continue to burn actively.

Incident Management Team (Carvelho) is assigned. The complex consists of
the Falls Creek, Cougar Creek and Copper Creek fires, 30 miles southwest

winds and lower relative humidity has been observed.

BURNT FLATS, Clearwater area, Idaho State Department of Lands. A Type II
Incident Management Team (Ostman) is assigned. The fire is three miles
from Whitebird, ID. The fire crossed containment lines in Chapman Creek,
forcing firefighters to retreat to safety zones. After air support cooled
the fire, crews returned to reestablish and hold containment lines. Work
to secure the west side continues with crews, engines and dozers
suppressing spot fires and constructing fireline. The east side of the
fire remains largely unstaffed.
BEAVER CREEK, Gallatin National Forest. A Type II Incident Management
Team (Duke) is assigned. This fire is south of Big Sky, MT. Air tankers
are providing protection for cabins and suppression of spot fires. Moving

A strong low pressure area embedded in a dry southwest flow will move into
the Pacific northwest, bringing seasonal temperatures for the northwest,
Great Basin and northern Rockies. Portions of the Great Basin and
northern Rockies will have breezy to windy conditions. There is a slight
chance of precipitation in the central Rocky Mountains. Monsoonal
moisture and a threat of thunderstorms continues across the southwest
United States as high pressure extends from eastern Colorado to southern
California.
Northwest to southwest winds of 15 to 20 mph with gusts to around 35 mph
can be expected across portions of the north. Elsewhere, winds will be 10
to 15 mph.
High temperatures will range from the mid 70's to the mid 90's in most
areas and up to 110 in the deserts of western Utah, northern Arizona and
southern Nevada. Up to 115 degree temperatures will occur across the
southern California and Arizona desert areas. Afternoon relative
humidities will range from the low teens to around 30 in most areas,
except drier in the hottest deserts and higher in the mountains.
A fire weather watch is posted in the inland counties of northern Florida
for low relative humidities.

SPONSORSHIP NOTICE
The Disaster Center reports on Major Disasters in the USA by collecting and
redistributing public information reports. We also provide a means for the
creation of a historic database of these reports, which are often only on
the internet for a short time during a disaster. When The Disaster Center
does it's job well our site serves as a center for obtaining access to
current disaster reports during the disaster. To do this we need access to
current public situation reports. Anything that our readers can do to
provide or promote our access to these reports enables hundreds and
sometimes thousands of people to benefit. If you wish to make a report
please use our message board system. Copies of all messages are sent to the
manager at The Disaster Center. If you supply a report, please provide
access to links for confirmation of the report, if the manager believe it
merits it, a special SitRep may be issued.
