The RT-130 Wildland Fire Safety Training Annual Refresher is meant to help firefighters stay focused on safety, decision-making, and risk reduction while working on wildfires. It reinforces safe practices and helps prevent accidents.
This training is required for certain positions to stay qualified, for anyone with fireline duties, and for those assigned to the fireline for non-firefighting tasks.
Using the map below, determine the administrator you need to contact.
Panhandle Region: Jacob Pittman: jpittman5@unl.edu
North Central Region: Justin Nickless: jnickless2@unl.edu
South Region: Eric Moul: emoul2@unl.edu
Please also "CC" trees@unl.edu in your message so the Nebraska Forest Service can retain a record of your certification.
Email the appropriate contact answering the following three questions from the video:
1) Name 1 of the 3 notable fires locally in Nebraska for 2024.
2) What was the MEAN temperature departure for the month of December 2024?
3) Name one of the notable incidents nationally from the Lessons Learned for 2024.
From there, you will hear from the relevant administrator with your recertification.
