A Part of the National Fire Incident Reporting System (NERIS)

This section of the Louisiana State Fire Marshal's office collects and maintains data submitted from Louisiana fire departments and compiles statistics on all incidents to which a fire department responds in an effort to determine the impact of these incidents, especially fire incidents, on the lives of our citizens and property in Louisiana. NERIS is the program through which this data is collected.

In addition, by collecting data on both fire and non-fire response efforts of our fire departments, we can identify personnel, equipment, and training needs of our fire service and document the full impact our fire service has in our communities.

The NERIS State Program Manager is Kory Leo. If you have questions or need assistance regarding NERIS reporting, please contact Kory at:
