  fire  

The Kamloops Fire Centre is one of six B.C. Forest Service, Protection Branch fire centres located throughout the province that form a critically placed network of fast response dispatch centres. The centres determine, coordinate, and implement forest fire attack strategies, offering the most effective and practical means of reducing fire costs and damage. 

 air tanker   The B.C. Forest Service airtanker fleet command and control is the responsibility of the Provincial Airtanker Centre. The centre dispatches fixed wing aerial firefighting resources from any one of the 18 Tankers Bases in B.C. Strategic decisions regarding numbers, position and alerts are established by the centre in consultation with Air Attack Specialists and fire centre personnel.
