Sher Brown, assistant fire chief of Red Hill NM fire department has been appointed to be Local Fire Liaison for the New Mexico fire team. Brown has provided her job description below:
- Track all resources used by the local fire departments and fill out all the appropriate paper work so we can get reimbursed by FEMA
- Monitor all 911 calls so I can inform EOC exactly where our resources are being used. They need to know what's tied up elsewhere and whether or not we might need additional resources, i.e. an extra water tender
- Brief the EOC on what the local fire departments are doing in regards to the Wallow fire
- Brief Catron County Fire Marshall Zina McGuire on what is said during the briefings each morning at the EOC
"Some people are freaking out because they're seeing fire, but it's not the Wallow fire," Brown said.
EOC = Emergency Operations Center
