Pipeline and Haywire fires being managed by Type 2 Incident Management Team | Arizona Emergency information Network - az.gov

The Type 2 California Incident Management Team 15 has assumed management of the Pipeline and Haywire fires north of Flagstaff.

The Pipeline Fire is currently 20,178 acres and the Haywire Fire is estimated at 4,052 acres. The Double Fire, which was first reported Monday, has merged with the Haywire Fire, and is now being managed solely as the Haywire Fire.

The Type 2 team will manage both fires until a Type 1 team assumes control Wednesday.

While critical fire weather remains in effect due to dry conditions and high temperatures, lower wind speeds may allow for aerial operations throughout the day Tuesday and beyond.

In addition to using water and retardant dropping aircraft, crews will spend Tuesday looking for opportunities to directly engage the fire with the intent to suppress the fire's edge and to keep the fire from entering communities as it continues moving in a northeast direction. Crews plan to utilize the 2010 Schultz Fire and recent Tunnel Fire footprints to their advantage.

Current resources on the Pipeline include 360 personnel composed of eight hand crews, 40 engines, six water tenders, five dozers and miscellaneous overhead. Current resources on the Haywire include six engines. There are roughly 500 personnel working on both fires. Aerial resources include six helicopters and one fixed-wing aircraft and are working on both fires.

The Coconino NF remains in Stage 2 fire and smoking restrictions. Information regarding fire restrictions can be found at coconinonationalforest.us/.
