Abstract
Wildfires do not respect property boundaries. Whole geographic regions are typically impacted by major wildfire outbreaks. Various fire related resources can be shared to solve such crises; whether they are shared, and how they are shared depends to a great extent upon the rapport among the agencies involved. Major progress has been achieved over the past decade largely through the adoption of some formalized processes, such as the National Wildfire Coordinating Group. More progress can be made on into the 21st century at the local, state, and national levels if managers will support the cost effective use of shared resources in the attainment of wildland fire management objectives.
