Rocky Mountain Complex Incident Management Team One

An Introduction to Our Team

Our Incident Management Team (IMT) operates under the standards of the National Wildfire Coordinating Group (NWCG) with oversight by the Rocky Mountain Area Coordinating Group. We are comprised of members from local, state, and federal agencies, most of whom reside in the Rocky Mountain states of Colorado, Nebraska, Kansas, South Dakota, and Wyoming. Cumulatively, our team members have several hundred years of experience.

Our IMT1 is currently piloting a transition to Complex Incident Management Teams (CIMTs). CIMTs will be configured to respond to large, complex fires and have the ability to expand and reduce staff in all functional areas to meet the needs of the incident.

The Rocky Mountain Type 1 Incident Management Team is one of 16 IMT1s located across the geographic regions of the United States and one of three CIMTs within the Rocky Mountain Geographic Area.
