The National Wildfire Coordinating Group (NWCG) was formed in the United States as a result of the aftermath of a major wildfire season in 1970, including the Laguna Fire. The 1970 fire season underscored the need for a national set of training and equipment standards which would be standardized across the different agencies. NWCG included representatives from the United States Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management, the National Park Service, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the National Association of State Foresters.

| - El Grupo coordinador nacional de incendios forestales de Estados Unidos (del inglés National Wildfire Coordinating Group, NWCG) fue creado con ocasión de una destructiva temporada de incendios forestales en 1970. La temporada de incendios de 1970 expuso la necesidad de crear un conjunto nacional de estándares de capacitación y equipos que se estandarizarían en las diferentes agencias de respuesta a estos incidentes, el NWCG incluyó representantes de:
* Servicio Forestal de los Estados Unidos.
* La Oficina de Administración de Tierras
* El Servicio de Parques Nacionales,
* La Oficina de Asuntos Indígenas,
* El Servicio de Pesca y Vida Silvestre de los Estados Unidos y
* La Asociación Nacional de Silvicultores del Estado. Entre los resultados notables del NWCG se encuentra la adopción del sistema de clasificación de calificaciones de incendio entre agencias, más conocido entre los bomberos como el sistema de calificación de "tarjeta roja"; el establecimiento de la serie de clases de capacitación asociadas con el sistema de tarjeta roja (como el curso básico sobre incendios forestales, S-130 / S-190); el establecimiento de un centro interdepartamental de capacitación en incendios en Marana, Arizona; la publicación de manuales de capacitación como la Guía de bolsillo de respuesta a incidentes.

- The National Wildfire Coordinating Group (NWCG) was formed in the United States as a result of the aftermath of a major wildfire season in 1970, including the Laguna Fire. The 1970 fire season underscored the need for a national set of training and equipment standards which would be standardized across the different agencies. NWCG included representatives from the United States Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management, the National Park Service, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the National Association of State Foresters. After a series of meetings in the early 1970s, the NWCG was officially chartered by the Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture in 1976. Among the notable results of the NWCG has been the adoption of the Interagency Fire Qualifications Rating system, more commonly known among firefighters as the "red card" qualification system; the establishment of the series of training classes associated with the red card system (such as the basic wildland fire course, S-130/S-190); the establishment of an interagency fire training center at Marana, Arizona; the publication of training manuals such as the Fireline Handbook; and the Resource Ordering Status System. NWCG was formed independently of two other programs which also formed in the 1970s out of the need for greater interagency coordination: the Boise Interagency Fire Center (now the National Interagency Fire Center), and the FIRESCOPE program in southern California.
