(1) At all wildland fires, members must be provided with a minimum of one quart per hour of electrolyte drinks or potable water.

(2) Officers at wildland fires must be trained in the symptoms of heat-related disorders and must observe their crews for such behavior. Appropriate action must be taken in the event a crew member displays such symptoms.

(3) At all wildland fires, the incident commander must consider the circumstances of the incident and make adequate provisions early in the incident for the rest, rehabilitation and hydration of all members operating at the scene. These provisions must include fluid replenishment; other factors to consider are the extremes of the climatic conditions and other environmental factors that increase the firefighter's heat stress.

(4) One hour is the maximum time that individuals can work in high temperatures in structural protective clothing. Agencies may substitute crews to avoid the one-hour bench mark or increase crew size to complete the job in less than one hour.

(5) Members may be reassigned to return to duty throughout the incident cycle once a work-to-rest ratio (company and crew) rehabilitation rotation has been established.
