The Moab Interagency Fire Center represents the four wildland fire agencies in Southeastern Utah, providing resource coordination between the U.S. Forest Service Manti-La Sal National Forest; Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands ­ Southeast Utah Area; the Bureau of Land Management ­ Moab, Price, and Monticello Field Offices; and the National Park Service­ Southeast Utah Group. Additionally, we work closely with our cooperators throughout Utah and western Colorado.

Our dispatch area involves nearly 10 million acres of terrain that ranges from grasslands at 4000 feet to forested lands above 10,000 feet in elevation. Land status throughout the area is highly fragmented.

We respond to an average of 400 incidents per year, with a fire season that extends from March through October.
