Decision Content: Objectives

The Objectives section of the decision includes information about an incident's Strategic Objectives, Management Requirements, Incident Objectives, and Incident Requirements. When a planning area is drawn, the pre-loaded Strategic Objectives and Management Requirements are auto-populated into the decision. The incident owners/editors create the Incident Objectives/Incident Requirements from the Objectives tab (See Creating Incident Objectives and Requirements).

Strategic Objectives and Management Requirements come from the Fire Management Plans and the Land/Resource Plans and are uploaded by a data manager well ahead of fire season. Incident owners and editors then tier these down to develop Incident-specific Objectives and Incident Requirements for the Planning Area.

In the Objectives section of the decision, review previous inputs:

• Review the FMU/SO list. You can redraw your planning area to re-sample the pre-loaded spatial data. If you have questions about the pre-loaded spatial data or changes are required, contact the data manager on your local unit. 
• Review the Strategic Objectives, Management Requirements, Incident Objectives, and Incident Requirements. Ensure that:
  • Objectives and requirements are included and or excluded appropriately.
  • Incident Objectives and Requirements are specific to the incident.
  • Objectives and requirements include context on the intent and reasoning behind the statements.
• Add, as appropriate, supporting text, data and analyses.
