What is a Camp Crew?

When large fires occur and an IMT (Incident Management Team) is ordered, fire camp is established. Help is needed to setup and take down camp and also to keep the camp clean and organized throughout its usage. Camp Crews are ordered by the incident to assist with these duties. Camp Crews are a call when needed resource and there is no guarantee of employment. Assignments can be up to 16 days long including travel.
