## 	
	The PIDC Zone saw an active year with over 164,000 acres burned within the zone, this was the 2nd highest number of acres burned covering the last 10 years.  We saw an increase in Red Flag Warning issued with over 80 Red Flag issued by the 8 NWS office’s in the zone, which was our highest ever recorded for a signal year. Unfortunately we lost 3 firefighters on two separate incidents during the same day during Red Flag Warnings.  As typically in the zone we saw average number of fires within Jan, Feb and an increase in March which came with a dryer weather pattern and increased Red Flag Days.  On April 15th (a Red Flag Warning day) we had 2 large fires the Ordway fire in Crowley Co. (8900 ac. 2 FFTR LODD) and the TA-25 fire in El Paso Co. (9064 ac. 1 FFTR LODD).  In April, May, June and July we experienced continued fire activity with large fires still continuing with most being on private/County jurisdiction.  During August, September October, November and December we again saw moderate to high fire conditions with dryer then normal precipitation recorded.  The PIDC zone hosted 3 type 3 and 3 type 2 teams during April through July and the Fremont SEAT Base pumped over 50,000 gallons of retardant.   PIDC is experiencing a increase in workload through supporting more cooperator incidents and available resources being made available in the zone.  With this increase in workload we have seen a decrease in staffing and a 100% turnover in the available seasonal staff.  To help with this PIDC continues to bring cooperator departments that are interested in the Dispatch organization, in 2008 we added the Pueblo City Fire Department to this list and started the training process of the department members to assist us as needed in the Dispatch and Expanded organizations.
