Aussie crews going to battle US blazes
July 12, 2008, 11:54 am

A contingent of Australian and New Zealand firefighters is preparing to head for the United States to help battle devastating forest fires.

More than 60 blazes are ravaging the US, with about 1.2 million hectares falling victim to fire this year - almost the yearly average in just six months.

NSW emergency services minister Nathan Rees on Saturday formally farewelled 10 emergency personnel, including five firefighters and five national parks and forest workers.

They are among a team of 44 Australians and New Zealanders scheduled to leave for California this weekend.

"The US National Interagency Fire Centre formally requested the assistance the Iemma government had no hesitation in agreeing to the request," Mr Rees said.

The team will relieve local fire crews in remote areas, and provide expert advice on tactics and strategy.

Australian firefighters were last deployed to the US in 2006, when they were responsible for coordinating thousands of fire personnel.

NSW heads the contingent with 10 personnel, followed by Victoria's nine, Western Australia's eight, the ACT's four, Tasmania's three, one from South Australia and nine from New Zealand.

California is the worst-hit area, with 24 bushfires, while a further four are raging in the neighbouring desert state of Arizona.

One person was found dead overnight inside a burned-out house after a wind-fuelled wildfire swept through a rural community in California's Sierra Nevada foothills.

Investigators believe the person died in the fire in the town of Concow, but an autopsy will be needed to confirm the cause of death.



all the best to all our firefighter australian and new zealand hope for a safe return for all

the old tanker was knowen as rhynie tanker and when the new one was bulit  they just kept the name as it was  but tanker is some times cerwed by members of the riverton cfs plus bulk of the work done when the tanker was being bulit was done in riverton as well

that cat still in tree  i think its time to get the chainsaw out cut the filtered tree down it mite be the only way to get the cat out and stop it from going up it 

every other road crash that has been in the tarlee area for the last 2 years at least has been ours we have only seen riverton or hamley at one other crash in the area ant that was at linwood 

i think you need to check your facts more carefly riverton & hamley has responed to more rcr in tarlee area than kapunda ses has and i konw that for a fact

just a few mistakes in the paging but oh well
my question is what was riverton doing responding to a VA on our area the job was a motorbike v truck

the tarlee area has all ways been riverton and hamley area for rcr kapunda's area stops just be for quarry on the hill plus being an rcr job who cares which area it is as long as you get the job done
