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 xxxxxxxx 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.

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, so 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 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.

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, so 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 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.
