That's good. Are they usually scheduled for such a long duration simply to be conservative so they don't need to be reentered?

I'm not sure but suspect that is the case. I have seen the fire fighting TFRs issued "Until further notice" and with an until date just a few days after it was issued. I did notice the TFR for the Two bulls fire had "Untill Oct.1" also and it is gone now too.

Requests are made through ARTCC...KZSE - Seattle in our case. It may be a policy of the NW fire dispatch office or Seattle ARTCC. I'll have to check some more through this summer to see.
