1
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
2
DISPATCHER:
But it -- it had a good glow on it, and
3
that’s why I called (b) (6)
--
4
OPERATIONS:
It --
5
DISPATCHER:
-- and talked to him about it.
6
OPERATIONS:
It’s been spotting real bad.
7
DISPATCHER:
Yeah.
8
I’ve been listening to (b) (6)
He said
he’s got five acres now below the road.
9
OPERATIONS:
Yeah.
10
DISPATCHER:
So that’s going to be a big issue.
And --
11
and like I said, I told him, I’m like, “I just want to let you
12
know, you know, we talked to (b) (6) and he, you know, he was fine
13
with the helicopters coming from Sequoia.”
And he was like, “Yeah, everything kind of started
14
15
changing around 10:00 or 11:00.
16
started having problems.”
After (b) (6) left was when they
17
OPERATIONS:
Oh.
18
DISPATCHER:
So -- but, yeah, we’ll just get a hold of

them.
And -- and the other option -- and -- and I don’t
20
21
think that they’re going to have a problem on the other fire
22
because they’ve been smoked in, in the morning anyways.
23
OPERATIONS:
Yeah.
24

So it shouldn’t be an issue.

helitanker.
2
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
3
DISPATCHER:
Otherwise, I’d send that that stupid K-MAX.
4
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
5
DISPATCHER:
And then like with air attack -- well, air
6
attack, we’ll have to order from South Ops.
7
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
So we’ll send that one to South Ops.
8
DISPATCHER:
Yeah.
What -- did (b) (6)
9
10
11
12
say what time he
wanted tankers up or Division 1?
OPERATIONS:
0700 is when he wants to get the aircraft
going.
DISPATCHER:
Yeah.
So what I would do is order air attack
13
to be -- well, tell them you want them like 7:30, I would say.
14
Because I don’t think they’ll come on any earlier than -- well,
15
they might come on -- if you tell them 07 in place of the South
16
Ops we’ll probably negotiate it to 7:30 is my guess.
17
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
18
DISPATCHER:
And then the tankers should be on at -- at
19
7:00 anyways.
That’s what time they’ve been bringing them on.
20
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
21
DISPATCHER:
But we’ll just -- just go ahead and grab two
22
of them.
23
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
24
DISPATCHER:
And then I -- and then what I was going to
25
We’ll do that.
say, the other option if we need another heavy is L.A. County
HUNTINGTON COURT REPORTERS & TRANSCRIPTION, INC.
(800) 586-2988
180
1
does have their heavy on contract now.
2
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
3
DISPATCHER:
But the helitanker, it’s -- obviously,
4
it’s -- it does fly higher.
5
OPERATIONS:
Do you want me to try to grab that one?
6
DISPATCHER:
I’d rather get one off the other fire for now
7
because I’m not sure that County will give it to us, because
8
they wouldn’t give us any more copters tomorrow for the other
9
fire.
10
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
11
DISPATCHER:
So I think, I mean, the -- the other fire is
12
a sure thing, at least I know the chiefy-wiefy has already told
13
them that they’re going to have to support this new fire, you
14
know, aircraft.
15
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
16
DISPATCHER:
So -- but I just wanted -- I just wanted to
17
let you know because, I mean, I know this thing is going to be
18
an issue now, I think.
19
OPERATIONS:
Yeah, it is.
20
DISPATCHER:
It’s turned into a huge issue.
And it’s kind
21
of turning out exactly like (b) (6) thought it might with, you
22
know, (b) (6) kind of playing it down like, oh, we got this thing
23
taken care of, and it’s not been the case.
24
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
We’ll get this all done.
25
DISPATCHER:
So -- but as far as any other resources go,
HUNTINGTON COURT REPORTERS & TRANSCRIPTION, INC.
(800) 586-2988
181
1
if he ends up ordering like engines and -- I mean, there are
2
none left to get now for -- for real, other than, obviously,
3
North Ops.
4
give him like an on-Forest strike team.
So I think we’ve got enough engines on Forest to
5
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
6
DISPATCHER:
It -- it will hurt us.
7
8
9
to take (inaudible).
Oh, and that was the other thing, I don’t think he
ever told Battalion 21 of Division 2 that we took that engine
10
from Lower Sand.
11
OPERATIONS:
12
Obviously, it’s going
Oh.
The -- the one that we reassigned over
to the Station?
13
DISPATCHER:
Yeah.
14
OPERATIONS:
We’ll find out --
15
DISPATCHER:
And that --
16
OPERATIONS:
-- in the morning.
17
DISPATCHER:
Yeah.
I was going to say we need to make
18
sure we let them know in the morning.
And I was -- I was just
19
kind of thinking have you just put an order in right now to the
20
Cleveland, maybe, or to South Ops for a cover engine to see if
21
they might be able to help us out covering all this Lower Sand.
22
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
23
DISPATCHER:
But --
24
OPERATIONS:
-- you want me to go ahead and do that, put

an order in for Lower Sand covering for tomorrow?

Cleveland or San Bernardino, just something
7
close.
8

10
happens because I don’t know how many engines we have.
Well, I
11
don’t know how many we would have tomorrow.
12
their requested six day staffing of all five day engines.
13
OPERATIONS:
Yeah.
14
DISPATCHER:
So we should be all right.
But we authorized
I seen that.
But like -- like
15
I said, I mean, to get them any help in a hurry it’s going to
16
have to be an off-Forest type strike team.
17
never even (inaudible) an alarm on that thing today.
So -- but they
18
OPERATIONS:
That’s what I was looking in the notes.
19
DISPATCHER:
Yeah.
It was the weirdest thing.
But he
20
ended up -- he ended up with like eight engines somehow
21
initially.
22
23
24
25
OPERATIONS:
Yeah.
Because, well, it looks like the cover
Yeah.
And they weren’t in (inaudible), I
engines went too.

183
1
OPERATIONS:
Yeah.
2
DISPATCHER:
So our dispatch just called up our normal
3
engines.
But then we had one sent at Clear Creek, one sent at
4
I think Little T, and one over at Angeles Crest, as a matter of
5
fact.
6
OPERATIONS:
Oh.
Okay.
7
DISPATCHER:
Something like that.
8
more engines than (inaudible).

alarm.
So it ended up getting
But basically they had a second

OPERATIONS:
Pretty much.
11
DISPATCHER:
Especially after Engine 11 and 12 went to the
OPERATIONS:
Yeah.
12
fire.
13
14
and 12 there?
They’re supposed to be committed on the Morris.
DISPATCHER:
15
When I heard I’m like why is Engine 11
Yeah.
Exactly.
So that was a concern.
16
if it helps (inaudible) it up a little, well, I guess it’s
17
okay.
18
But
So anyways, and then my -- and crew-wise, I don’t
19
think there’s a whole lot of crews left.
And I -- and to get
20
anything in a hurry we’re going to end up kind of having to
21
maybe rob some stuff from the other fire.
22
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
23
DISPATCHER:
And like that’s what we did with Geronimo.
24
They were still -- they were en route to the Morris and they
25
were going to RON (phonetic) in San Bernardino.

And then we’re still getting that one crew
Yeah.
That’s going to leave out of Mendocino
tomorrow --
5
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
6
DISPATCHER:
-- morning.
And right now my tentative plan
7
is to put them on the Morris Fire in place of Geronimo.
But,
8
obviously, if this fire needs crews we’ll put them on that
9
fire.
10
OPERATIONS:
Okay.
11

And then I don’t -- I don’t know.
So
I
So --
6

I -- that’s what I think, too.
7
DISPATCHER:
Well, I started thinking it about it on the
8
way in going, holy cow, a copter coming up from Sequoia is not
9
even going to be there (inaudible) until nine o’clock.
10
OPERATIONS:
Well, if we could just --
11
DISPATCHER:
So --
12
OPERATIONS:
-- borrow some stuff off of the Morris for
13
14
the time being -DISPATCHER:
Yeah.
And that’s why when I talked to (b) (6)
15
I said, “Well, you know, at -- at a minimum you might think
16
about a Type I from over there.”
17
OPERATIONS:
And they’ve got --
18
DISPATCHER:
I mean, they --
19
OPERATIONS:
-- give Type IIs.
20
DISPATCHER:
Yeah.
21
OPERATIONS:
We could --
22
DISPATCHER:
And, well, and L.A. -- and L.A. 1 helicopter
23
could drop water.
So it doesn’t -- and that’s why it doesn’t

25
because all they’re using them for is dropping water.
