Activity Log
Purpose. The Activity Log (ICS 214) records details of notable activities at any ICS level, including single resources,
equipment, Task Forces, etc. These logs provide basic incident activity documentation, and a reference for any after-
action report.
Preparation. An ICS 214 can be initiated and maintained by personnel in various ICS positions as it is needed or
appropriate. Personnel should document how relevant incident activities are occurring and progressing, or any notable
events or communications.
Distribution. Completed ICS 214s are submitted to supervisors, who forward them to the Documentation Unit. All
completed original forms must be given to the Documentation Unit, which maintains a file of all ICS 214s. It is
recommended that individuals retain a copy for their own records.
Notes:
The ICS 214 can be printed as a two-sided form.
Use additional copies as continuation sheets as needed, and indicate pagination as used.
