This site provides general information about Oltrogge's Southwest Area Incident Management Team and its assignments.  It is not intended to be a comprehensive source of incident information.

Sixteen national "Type 1" incident management teams (IMTs) are assigned to manage large-scale, complex incidents.  These incidents usually involve large wildfires, but may also include hurricanes and other natural disasters, as well as other national emergencies.

Southwest Incident Management Team members are experts in finance, logistics, operations, information, safety, and planning, and are drawn from many local, state, and federal agencies throughout Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and Oklahoma.
