  2. LEADERSHIP OBJECTIVES/APPROACH: • Provide the Opportunity for Company Officers to Lead Their Crew and to Apply Their Knowledge/Experience/Judgment & Training. • Be as General in your Guidance as Conditions Allow. • Observe and Listen. • Measure Them and Allow Them to Measure You. • Our Actions & Behavior Communicate Far More About Us than Words. • Walk the Walk, Talk the Talk. • Effective Leaders Practice Patience, Persistence & Presence. Instill Confidence Up and Down • Share the Hardship Share the Danger. • Challenge Them Encourage Them. • Allow Them to Learn and Adapt. • Taking Care of Them Means Preparing Them.

Worst Case Fire Behavior. • Compare Your Estimates with Locals/Others. • Actions Ahead, During, After. • Think Beyond the Fire. • Seek the Initiative. Exercise Initiative.

  4. SOME OBSERVATIONS • Big Deal Made of Mission Canyon in Incident and Group Briefings. • Evacuations in Place. Numerous Residents Defied. • Hundreds of Resources Assigned to Defensive Structure Protection. • Relatively Few Resources Assigned to Offensive Fire Attack. • Direction/Strong Inference to Minimize Structure Prep Actions Unless Fire Imminent. • Group Resources Intermixed With Divisional Resources. • Adjoining Type III Strike Team Pulled Out of Key Area at Noon.

  5. LESSONS LEARNED/REINFORCED • Do not Allow Crews to Chase Spot Fires Associated With Intensified Fire Behavior or an Approaching Fire Front. The Closer the Fire, The Tighter the Crew. • Structure Prep Activities Greatly Increase Effectiveness and Reduce Risk. Commit to It and Do It Early When and Where You Can. • Keep Your Trainee and Staff Assistant Close. They Need To Know to Watch You! • Staying Put is a Good Thing. • Expect to be on Your Own. • Time and Timing are BIG!!

  6. CONSEQUENCES-MY BAD • I Should Been More Detailed in my PFP on Holly Rd. • Alignment/Risk/Actions • Pool • I Contemplated the Move of 35’s Too Long • Tight High Risk Location • Left Hole Below • Time Compression • Crews Split/Too Spread Out • Water Problem • Property Loss • I Bought in to Not Pre-Treating Structures Early

  7. THE CREWS The Officers, Engineers and Firefighters of E10, E11, E14, E35 & E37 Performed with Unwavering Courage and Commitment in The Highest Traditions of This Department During This Incident.
