Staging areas in the Incident Command System (ICS) are designated locations where resources, personnel, and equipment can be assembled and held until they are needed for deployment. These areas facilitate efficient resource management and ensure that responders are organized and ready to act when required. Staging areas help maintain safety and order during incidents by preventing congestion at the incident site and allowing for better logistical support. They are typically managed by a staging area manager who coordinates the activities within the area.

Who managed the resources within the staging areas?
When properly delegated, a "staging area manager" would manage those resources. The actual management in an unfolding incident would depend upon whether "staging" was situated in the Operations Section, Planning Section, Logistics Section or in the Command Staff. For example, the Planning Section Chief is responsible for assembly of task forces and strike teams from resources not already assigned to Operations, as well as reassignment of out-of-service personnel to other areas of the incident, as appropriate. However, on a smaller incident, the Ops Chief may simply run staging himself or designate a "staging unit" to coordinate rotations of personnel released from some task with fresh or rehab personnel returning to service.

What resources are found within the Staging areas?
It depends on the size and scope of the incident. Staging areas are intended to keep all available resources in a single area, ready to deploy. On a typical house fire, a large tarp would be placed near the command post. At that location you would find personnel awaiting their next assignment from incident command, and the tarp would contain pike poles, drywall tools, air bottles, axes, haligan tools, and other firefighting and overhaul tools ready to go back into service, or to go into service for the first time on the scene. On large scale multijuristictional disasters, the staging area could be as large as a small tent city, filled with people and equipment ready to deploy at any moment once the Incident Command System determines what to mobilize from the staging area.
Resources within the Staging Areas does what?
Within the Staging Area, resources are simply required to wait until they are needed. At the behest of the Staging Officer, they can be either deployed to assist with an incident or released.
