There are either formal or informal agreements between neighboring jurisdictions to help each other out in cases of emergency. Our fire department, for example, has helped out neighboring towns when they’ve had wildfires. Oregon helped out neighboring states in cases of forest fires and vice versa.

It makes sense for states, cities and towns and counties to have sufficient firefighting resources for 80% or more of situations. Rather than duplicate, have contingency agreements with neighboring governments.

    Bingo. Americans work together. Fox clones - otoh - stand on the sidelines and whine about the eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil "lib-uh-rolls" not doing a good enough job.

    Indy,
    Right, Republicans and conservatives are unhelpful complainers. If they are not complaining the budget is too big, they are complaining it is too small.

    I missed including this link below.

    “Several Rogue Valley firefighting agencies are sending reinforcements to Southern California to help battle catastrophic Los Angeles wildfires driven by devilish Santa Ana winds.

    The contingent includes engines from Illinois Valley, Medford Fire, Ashland Fire & Rescue, Jackson County Fire District 3 and Chiloquin Fire and Rescue. A briefing and sendoff was held late Wednesday morning.”

    These are small towns who are sending firefighters to do dangerous work, only because of they care about their (distant) neighbors. They aren’t questioning LA’s preparedness.

    A lot of firefighters from several provinces of Canada are also on the way. Plus a number of water bombers and other equipment. Evervbody is helping in what is expected to be the worst natural disaster in American history. Worst apart from Donald Trump.

    "...the worst natural disaster in American history. Worst apart from Donald Trump." --Meagain

    LOL!

    Besides Canada, firefighters from Australia and New Zealand have been part of firefighting efforts here in the Pacific Northwest. I recall that Oregon-based fire fighters were sent to Australia and elsewhere abroad. There probably are formal reciprocal agreements across international borders.

    I kniw that, Curt. California sent firefighters to Canada, too. That is hardly something to question.

    As for the worst natural disaster, that comes from an American assessment by an organisation that specialises in wildfires.
