Diverts. If the closest air tankers to a new fire are already committed to other fires, a divert would normally be made, except when the Incident Commander has declared a No Divert, due to an immediate, critical threat to life and/or property. The using dispatch office must immediately notify the appropriate higher-level dispatch office of any No Divert situation. While the specific divert process used may vary by protection unit and circumstance, each dispatch office has operational control of any aircraft in its jurisdictional airspace assigned to its agency’s Order Number. In order to meet new incident initial attack needs without undue delay, the responsible dispatch office should normally give the divert order directly to the Aerial Supervisory aircraft. Diverts between protection units are to be requested through the appropriate Federal Agency GACC or Region Command Center (RCC).
