At the Aug. 14, 2025 meeting of the Elko County Local Emergency Planning Committee, Elko County fire officials and the chair reported multiple recent incidents that the committee may record for state hazardous incident reporting and after-action review.

Matt Peterson, Elko County fire chief and executive board member, summarized responses to the Jake's Fire and a string of other incidents: "on the Jake's fire, we had a a large hydro well, a small to medium hydraulic spill. I did email in the AAR to you and Daniel for your submission. Worked with the BLM reads for the mitigation and cleanup. Also, there was, 1 of the sanitation trucks had a collision with, handwashing station and had some material leak and and spill up there that was met also mitigated by the camp, and then we've had, a handful of semi fires and structure fires and hazmat mitigation on the carcinogens and gross decon type things if you wanna submit those." Peterson said he had submitted an after-action report (AAR) and worked with Bureau of Land Management resources on mitigation and cleanup.

Committee chair Lee Cavness said he received a separate report from environmental authorities about a train fuel leak and that he planned to forward that information to response agencies for follow-up: "I just did get, something from environmental, again, about, a train that leaked fuel. So I'm gonna send that to you. And if that's something that, looks like you guys responded to and assisted with, then, get that back as well." The committee discussed whether other recent trainings and drills should also be included in incident reporting.

No formal vote or regulatory determination was made at the meeting. The items were handled as discussion for possible reporting to the State Emergency Response Commission and for training or reporting purposes. Committee members said they would return relevant incident documentation (AARs and environmental reports) to the chair or designee for submission to state authorities.
