Crew and Engine Updates

Some quick updates regarding our crews and resources:

PAS# 8 was posted available Thursday (9/6) in the morning and we were called with an assignment for them in less than an hour.  The wildland fire resources have been stretched thin out west and there are very few resources available to assist. They are assigned to the Kerlin Fire on the Shasta-Trinity National Forest in northern California. 

PAS#7 returned on Friday (9/7). Due to their later arrival and distance to travel home, they stayed at the demobilization point and were released on Saturday (9/8). 

PAS #6 returned on Sunday (9/2).

E-601 returned on Thursday (8/30).

E-602 is still in Texas for initial attack.

We currently have 5 Single Resources assigned to fires.
