develop wildfire emergency response plan and emergency evacuation plan #44

Open lucy-schick opened 3 months ago

lucy-schick commented 3 months ago

Wildfires are becoming increasing common so I think it would be beneficial to develop a wildfire emergency response plan.

We do already have a fire response plan in hsp (https://www.newgraphenvironment.com/hsp/plans-and-assessments.html#fire-response) but I think it could be updated to be more specific to wildfires.

Rough draft wildfire emergency response plan.

Wildfire Emergency Response Plan

  1. Small fire (Need definition of a small fire), can be contained by crews:
    • Crew lead notifies all crew members and crews regroup if separated.
    • Call Forest Fire Reporting
    • crew leader instructs crew on fire suppression
    • Crews suppress fire for x amount of time (need threshold), need threshold of when to evacuate if fire is not being suppressed.
    • If fire suppression fails then crew lead to activate evacuation plan on tailboard
  2. Large fire, must evacuate:
    • Crew lead notifies all crew members and crews regroups if necessary.
    • Call Forest Fire Reporting
    • crew members follow evacuation plan
    • Crews meet a assembly point
