NWCG Infectious Disease Guidance for Wildland Fire Incidents
Questions? Please contact:
Emergency Medical Committee

This guidance, developed by the NWCG Emergency Medical Committee (EMC), provides recommendations for infectious disease prevention, planning, identification, and response during wildland fire incident management activities. 

It does not supersede the guidance or direction of local health authorities but supplements existing direction from them.

The NWCG Executive Board approves this guidance for use by its member agencies.

National Wildfire Coordinating Group
Our mission is to provide national leadership to enable interoperable wildland fire operations among federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial partners.  NWCG operations standards are interagency by design; they are developed with the intent of universal adoption by the member agencies.  However, the decision to adopt and utilize them is made independently by the individual member agencies and communicated through their respective directives systems.
