That is probably the Angeles National Forest Supervisors Office.
The Forest Service has a Washington Office (WO) planning at at the national level and dealing doirectly with congress. Each region has a Regional Office (RO) that deals with larger regional issues (R5's in in Vallejo, at the old Mare Island Navy base). Then individual forests have a Supervisor's Office which is usually located in a nearby city. The SO deals with local community issues and forest wide issues. The forests are then broken down into districts (usually 2-6) each with a District Office, the district office may be close to the forest in town, or on forest land. This is the level you start to find the field going employees. Finally there are the work centers / fire stations distributed around the forest close to the work.
Very small units like the Tahoe Basin Management Unit (at Lake Tahoe) will combine the staff from the Supervisor's Office and District Office into one. The basin used to be managed by the Eldorado National Forest, but due to the high profile of the lake and the politics surrounding it, a seperate management unit was created to deal with its specific needs in the 1970s.
