By submitting fire reports and data about fire incidents, we can identify fire trends across the nation to help prevent fires in the future. Submission of fire reports is not only required by those departments applying for and receiving fire act grants, but it is also critical in providing this information to the US Fire Administration's national database.

South Dakota Fire Departments should report their incidents through the new National Emergency Response information System (NERIS). Departments may do that by direct entry or through a NERIS compliant third party software platform.
