TEXAS INTRASTATE FIRE MUTUAL AID SYSTEM
TIFMAS (Texas Intrastate Fire Mutual Aid System) is maintained by Texas A&M Forest Service. The program includes grants, training and qualifications and mobilization systems to make statewide use of local resources. The program was first used during Hurricane Ike, and has since been used in response such as to the Presidio flooding, wildfire outbreaks across Texas and Hurricane Alex & Harvey.
