    Hi Scott,

    I'm new to this site, but I read your comments on the SOP's. Would you be willing to send any info you have to us? We are a small island in the Gulf Islands of British Columbia. We have a 1400 gal pumper truck, but we are just getting started. We are first response until the Forestry service shows up, if they do. Thanks in advance

    We would love any SOP's you'd care to share.   We just had our first fire on the island about a month ago and I think we did pretty well, but we need to get more organized.  I have arranged for a trainer to come to the island next summer to do the S100 training, not sure what its called in the states.  Thanks for any help you can give us

    Hi Scott,

    Thanks so much for all your SOG's.  I'm also going to look at your website to see if we can use your new training material.  You've helped us to a great start in getting more organized !
