US Forest Service

Humboldt/Toiyabe National Forest

Forest Supervisor's Office and Ranger Districts:

 0 Forest Supervisor's Office in Sparks, Nevada
 1 Carson
 2 Bridgeport
 3 Austin
 4 Tonopah
 5 Spring Mountain National Recreation Area (Las Vegas)
 6 Mountain City
 7 Ruby Mountains 
 8 Jarbidge
 9 Ely
10 Santa Rosa (Winnemucca)

Note: The Austin and Tonopah Ranger Districts are administered as one ranger district
with offices in both towns. The Mountain City, Ruby Mountains and Jarbidge Ranger 
Districts are administered as a single ranger district with offices in Elko and Wells.

Unit designators or ID's for personnel on the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest use a 4 number format. The first number is always a "7." The Toiyabe National Forest is #17 in the Intermountain Region (R4) of the U.S. Forest Service. A number to distinguish the forest from the 6 BLM districts was needed since the BLM and the Forest Service share use 5 interagency dispatch centers across the state. The 2nd number designates the Supervisor's Office or one of the 10 ranger districts. The 3rd number designates the function, with "1" for the Forest Supervisor's or District Ranger's primary staff, "2" for recreation units, "4" for resource units [range (grazing), timber, wildlife, watershed, soils], "7" for special uses and "8" for minerals management. The 4th or last digit signifies the person's rank in the function. Examples "7000" is the Forest Supervisor, "7100" is the District Ranger on the Carson Ranger District. "7212" is the primary staff officer or manager for the district ranger for recreation on the Bridgeport Ranger District. "7220" is the recreation field supervisor or assistant recreation manager on the Bridgeport District.

Fire management follows the national fire designator system. Chief 1 is the forest fire management officer (FMO) and Chief 2 being the assistant FMO. Division 3 would be the Austin Ranger District FMO. Battalion 21 would be the assistant FMO on the Bridgeport Ranger District. Engines ID as the Type #, ranger district and apparatus number on a particular ranger district. Example Engine 451 would be a Type 4 engine on the Spring Mountain NRA assigned to the Kyle Station. Patrols are all so called "wet patrols" with small capacity tank (usually 50-100 gallons) and pump units which qualify as Type 7 engines. Example, Patrol 722 is assigned to the south side of the Bridgeport Ranger District and Patrol 711 being assigned to the Carson Ranger District's Galena Station.

Dispatch is provided by 5 BLM, USFS, NDF interagency dispatch centers. The Sierra Front Interagency Dispatch Center ("Minden") provides services for the Carson and Bridgeport Ranger Districts. The Central Nevada Interagency Dispatch Center ("Winnemucca") provides services for the Austin, Tonopah and Santa Rosa Ranger Districts. The Las Vegas Interagency Communications Center (Las Vegas) provides services for the Spring Mountain NRA. The Elko Interagency Dispatch Center ("Elko") provides services for the Mountain City, Jarbidge and Ruby Mountain Ranger District. Finally the Ely Interagency Communications Center ("Ely") provides services for the Ely Ranger District.

+Unit designators or ID's for personnel on the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest use a 4 number format. The first number is always a "7." The Toiyabe National Forest is #17 in the Intermountain Region (R4) of the U.S. Forest Service. A number to distinguish the forest from the 6 BLM districts was needed since the BLM and the Forest Service share use 5 interagency dispatch centers across the state. The 2nd number designates the Supervisor's Office or one of the 10 ranger districts. The 3rd number designates the function, with "1" for the Forest Supervisor's or District Ranger's primary staff, "2" for recreation units, "4" for resource units [range (grazing), timber, wildlife, watershed, soils], "7" for special uses and "8" for minerals management. The 4th or last digit signifies the person's rank in the function. Examples "7000" is the Forest Supervisor, "7100" is the District Ranger on the Carson Ranger District. "7212" is the primary staff officer or manager for the district ranger for recreation on the Bridgeport Ranger District. "7220" is the recreation field supervisor or assistant recreation manager on the Bridgeport District.
+Fire management follows the national fire designator system. Chief 1 is the forest fire management officer (FMO) and Chief 2 being the assistant FMO. Division 3 would be the Austin Ranger District FMO. Battalion 21 would be the assistant FMO on the Bridgeport Ranger District. Engines ID as the Type #, ranger district and apparatus number on a particular ranger district. Example Engine 451 would be a Type 4 engine on the Spring Mountain NRA assigned to the Kyle Station.

Example, Patrol 722 is assigned to the south side of the Bridgeport Ranger District and Patrol 711 being assigned to the Carson Ranger District's Galena Station.
+Dispatch is provided by 5 BLM, USFS, NDF interagency dispatch centers. The Sierra Front Interagency Dispatch Center ("Minden") provides services for the Carson and Bridgeport Ranger Districts. The Central Nevada Interagency Dispatch Center ("Winnemucca") provides services for the Austin, Tonopah and Santa Rosa Ranger Districts. The Las Vegas Interagency Communications Center (Las Vegas) provides services for the Spring Mountain NRA. The Elko Interagency Dispatch Center ("Elko") provides services for the Mountain City, Jarbidge and Ruby Mountain Ranger District. Finally the Ely Interagency Communications Center ("Ely") provides services for the Ely Ranger District.
-Call signs are four numbers with the first always being a "7", which stands for the Toiyabe NF which is Forest number 17 in the Intermountain Region of the U.S. Forest Service. The next number is the Ranger District or the Forest Supervisor's Office. The third number is the function with 0 and 1 indicating the Forest Supervisor's or District Ranger's Primary staff, "0" for fire and "1" for the other functions. The other functions are then used in the fourth position and are a "2" for recreation, "4" for timber, "5" for resources, and "6" for administration. In the "0" category "2" indicates the fire management officer "3" through "5" are fire positions such as assistant fire management officers, the helitack supervisor, and battalion chiefs, and a "6" is the fuels management officer. The third position for people working under the Forest Supervisor or District Ranger's primary staff will have a number of 2 through 7 as follows: a 2 indicates recreation, a 3 indicates an engine, a 4 timber management (only on District 1, the only district with enough timber workload to have a timber staff), a 5 indicates resource management (timber on districts 2-5 and range management on all districts), a 6 is for administrative personnel, and a 7 is for patrols. The fourth number is the rank within the function.
-So 7102 is the fire management officer on the Carson Ranger District, 7212 is the Recreation and Lands Officer on the Bridgeport Ranger District, 7315 is the Resource Officer on the Austin District, 7520 is the recreation supervisor on the Spring Mtn. NRA District, 7223 is a recreation technician on the Bridgeport Ranger District, 7431 is an engine on the Tonopah Ranger District, and 7171 is a fire prevention technician with a patrol engine with on the Carson Ranger District. 7000 is the Forest Supervisor, 7100 is the Carson District Ranger, 7002 is the Fire Management Officer for the entire Toiyabe National Forest, and 7006 is the Forest Fuels Management Officer.
-Dispatch is called "Minden" and is located at the Minden Interagency Dispatch Center at the Minden Airport near Minden, NV. Other agencies in this center are the Carson City District of the Bureau of Land Management and the Western and Southern Regions of the Nevada Department of Forestry.
