Fire

Fire incidents involve the uncontrolled combustion of materials that can threaten lives, property, agriculture, and natural resources, requiring coordinated prevention and response efforts. Management and mitigation include fire prevention practices, safe land and structure management, and emergency response systems such as fire and rescue training units that prepare personnel to contain, control, and recover from fire events.
