We are excited to be joining the new U.S. Wildland Fire Service in @Interior! This account will no longer be updated. We invite you to follow the new service at @USWFS.

[U.S. Wildland Fire Service @USWFS]

The U.S. Wildland Fire Service represents a historic modernization of wildfire management within the @Interior.

By unifying wildland fire management across @BIAFireForestry, @BLMFire, @FireAviationNPS, Office of Aviation Services, @DOIWildlandFire, and @USFWSFire, the Interior Department is building a more efficient, effective wildfire response system that it is better equipped to protect lives, communities, and ecosystems.

USWFS by the numbers:
✔Provides wildland fire management on over 500 million acres of public and tribal lands.
✔Employs 5,780 federal wildland fire personnel annually.
✔Supports approximately 900 tribal wildland fire personnel.
