Inciweb

InciWeb the Incident Information System

InciWeb is an interagency all-risk incident information management system. The system was developed with two primary missions:

Provide the public with a single source of incident-related information
Provide a standardized reporting tool for the Public Affairs community
Learn how to use and navigate around InciWeb with this support guide.

A number of supporting systems automate the delivery of incident information to remote sources. This ensures that the information regarding active incidents is consistent, and the delivery is timely.

It is a web-based interface that allows you to learn information about an incident geospatially. In other words, you can find the wildfire you are interested in on the map, click it and learn things like size; containment; ownership; perimeter; hot spots; historical fire occurrence; fire weather, etc.

Incident Information System

The Twentyfive Mile fire, located 12 miles northwest of Chelan, WA, remains at 22,117 acres, with 62% containment, and 48 personnel assigned to the incident. Post firework, including road repair and rehabilitation of bulldozer constructed fire suppression lines, is occurring. The area closure remains in effect, has been recently updated and will be re-evaluated in mid-October.  Due to the large burned area and road repair, hunters should plan their upcoming hunt outside of the Twenty-five Mile closure area and roads.

KNP Complex

While the KNP Complex does not pose any threats to life or property at this time, NPS fire managers have observed areas of fire activity and smoke in the interior of the fire footprint and determined that they are mainly coming from islands of unburned fuels and heavy logs that continue to be consumed. If the ongoing pattern of extremely dry weather continues, smoke west of Castle Rocks and north of Paradise Ridge may be visible from areas along Highway 198 approaching Sequoia National Park, and on the north end of the fire, smoke may be visible from portions of Highway 180 that look towards Redwood Canyon.
