Flagstaff Mountain fire, 12 miles south of our home. Started with a lightening strike, like the Fort Collins fire and the fire in Colorado Springs.
Listening to the news when the Fire Coordinator was briefing the press and mentioned the "project management" aspects of coordinating 800 fire fighters, 30 aircraft, and several dozen fire, police, and first responder organizations in real time, with fire moving at a mile in 5 minutes.
- There is a Plan
- There is a monute by minute schedule
- Resources are planned by the hour
- Budget control - ah not so much.
