Central Oregon Fire Management Service

The Central Oregon Fire Management Service (COFMS) area includes the Deschutes National Forest, the Ochoco National Forest, the Crooked River National Grassland, and the Prineville District BLM. These four units are managed cooperatively under combined leadership, with decision makers from both agencies.

The COFMS boundary has been divided into four planning units called Divisions to facilitate fire suppression and fire management activities. Although the areas work together to complete projects and suppress fires, each Division has its own leadership and staff. COFMS also has a central dispatching facility that serves as a communications hub for fire and fuels operations, as well as for safety and training issues.
