TheFirefighters Support Foundation's (FSF)newesttrainingprogram is now available. Wildland/Urban Interface Fires address the fact that urban and suburban fire departments are increasingly being deployed to wildfire areas, in part because urban and suburban communities are ever-expanding to thewildlandboundaries. The program consists of a 60-minute video presentation and an accompanying 26-slide PowerPoint.
The program is presented by Battalion Chief Scott Magers of the Hillsboro (OR) Fire Department. Chief Magers has had an extensive amount of experience in all aspects of the fire service, including wildland/urban interface fires, during his 34 years of service. He is a Type 1 Incident Commander with the Oregon State Fire Marshal's Office, overseeing one of their Incident Management Teams.
