Oil and Gas Guide for Wildland Firefighters

FULL DOCUMENT HERE

An added facet of fire suppression within the UCR is the large number of oil and gas (O&G) facilities, industry personnel and contractors that are present in the response area. Wildland fires in O&G fields create atypical safety issues and hazards that may dictate different tactics and mitigation procedures. This guide is designed to help firefighters identify oil and gas industry facilities common to western Colorado. This information will aid you in assessing and managing risk as you respond to fires.
