The mission of the Southwest Coordinating Group is
to enhance the safety, efficiency, and effectiveness of interagency
fire management activities, and to respond to and support non-fire emergencies,
as necessary. Meetings of
the Southwest Coordinating Group are held frequently.
As a fire season progresses, the SWCG will change hats and become the SWA Multi-Agency Coordinating (MAC) Group. As the MAC Group, the members prioritize incidents, allocate, relocate, and acquire resources, plan for contingency activities, and respond to media, agency, and common issues that cross agency boundaries.
