Small incidents use a single "Incident command" structure with one incident commander.
Larger or more complicated incidents may use "unified command" in which each agency participating has a say in creating the incident action plan, which is then implemented by the selected Operations Chief.
Multiple simultaneous incidents may be under an "Area Command" for coordination of limited local resources.
