Companies who provide advice at a national or local level should find the appropriate category of the Regional section (e.g. Regional/North_America/United_States/Regions/Northwest/).

Fire Fighting

This category is primarily for forest and wild land fire fighting equipment, education, and information. There is quite a bit of overlap with the Urban fire fighting category (Business/Business_Services/Security/Products_and_Equipment/Fire_Fighting_Equipment/), so you may want to check both. The sites are not duplicated in each category, they are put into the category that fits their main focus.
