About Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Fire

Direct link to 2021 video from the National Interagency Fire Center

The Bureau of Land Management Fire Program is housed in the U.S. Department of the Interior: 

As the largest and most complex fire program within the Department of the Interior, BLM Fire is directly responsible for fire management on more than 245 million acres. This land is commonly intermixed with other federal, state, and local jurisdictions, making partnerships and collaborative efforts crucial to the mission of safety and fire management. Overall, BLM Fire implements fire protection on approximately 650 million acres of public land with other fire management agencies.

I have a lot of respect for the work the BLM Fire does as the work to keep us safe from wildfires.
