Firestorm Wildland Fire Suppression

Firestorm is a forestry and emergency services corporation made up of fire and land management professionals. Founded by James Wills in 1995, Firestorm began with a memorandum of understanding for a single organized fire crew on the Lassen National Forest located in Northern California. Firestorm was the first private organization to hold a fire crew contract with the United States Forest Service and National Park Service in California. In order to provide quality services to the federal agencies, we were in constant search for more work to keep our fire crews working, physically fit and well trained. This search for forestry work began our Forestry Services Division. Our hand crews and engines were performing thousands of acres of prescribed burning and forestry health projects each season, while waiting for the call to assist in the suppression of wildland fires. We then diversified our Forestry Operations with the utilization of heavy equipment, mulchers and chippers, to perform thinning and fire hazard reduction projects. Today, Firestorm's Emergency Services division now provides multiple fire crews, wildland engines and overhead personnel throughout the United States for fire and all risk incidents. Each year we provide hundreds of thousands of personnel hours towards the support of emergency situations. We also provide wildland firefighter training to all agency personnel and individuals seeking to start a career in the wildland fire service. We are now providing Fire Safety Consulting for both large and small landowners to mitigate the threat of wildfires in the wildland urban interface. All of Firestorm's divisions combined plan and perform thousands of acres of prescribed burning, forestry thinning, mastication, fuel break construction and various other forestry related projects each year. Firestorm Wildland Fire Suppression, Inc. is an equal opportunity employer that is continually seeking to add to our team of players those who want more than mediocrity in the work place.
