Narrative
Describe in detail what happened including the concern or potential issue, the environment (weather, terrain, fire behavior, etc), and the resulting health issue.
DUE TO A 4 HOUR PLANNED EVENT COORDINATED BY CIO, WE HAVE LOST ALL ACCES TO WILDCAD-E AND DISRUPTIONS IN RADIO COMMUNICATIONS INCLUDING NATIONAL FLIGHT FOLLOW. IN THE LOCAL AREA WE HAVE MANY INITIAL ATTACK INCIDENTS GOING ALONG WITH EXTENDED TYPE3 AND A CIMT INCIDENT. THIS "PLANNED EVENT" IS ONE DISTURBANCE AMONG MANY THIS YEAR THAT HAS MADE DAY TO DAY OPERATIONS EVEN MORE DIFFICULT. IT BEEN EMBARRISSING HOW OFTEN THE FOREST SERVICE NETWORK HAS BEEN DOWN THIS FIRE SEASON.
Immediate Action Taken
Reporting Individual : please describe actions you took to correct or mitigate the unsafe/unhealthful event.
MAYBE, IF THERE IS GOING TO BE A PLANNED EVENT THAT DISRUPTS INTERNET, RADIO COMMS . DO IT AT A BETTER TIME, WHEN WE ARE NOT RELYING ON THOSE SERVICES TO BE UP AND READY TO WORK. WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO SUPPORT OUR FIRE RESOURCES ON THE GROUND AND AIR. WE CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS...
