The NWCG Incident Pocket Response Guide was created by which organization?

• A. U.S. Forest Service
• B. National Wildfire Coordinating Group
• C. National Fire Protection Association
• D. Bureau of Land Management

Answer: (B)

The main idea is recognizing who produces the joint, interagency resources used across wildfire incidents. The NWCG Incident Pocket Response Guide was created and maintained by the National Wildfire Coordinating Group, an interagency collaboration that brings together federal, state, local, and tribal partners to standardize wildfire response, training, and equipment. This guide is part of the NWCG’s suite of incident-response materials, designed to be used consistently across agencies. While individual agencies like the U.S. Forest Service or the Bureau of Land Management participate in NWCG, they did not create this guide on their own. The National Fire Protection Association is a separate standards organization and is not the creator of this pocket guide. So, the correct answer is the National Wildfire Coordinating Group.
