Fire Apparatus. 47.1 All fire apparatus and equipment used in emergency operations, in need of repairs, will be repaired in a timely manner.
Fire Apparatus. The Xxxxxx Valley Fire Department currently has six fire stations staffed by six fire engines and two aerial apparatus (also known as truck companies) that respond to emergency calls for service such as fires, medical emergencies, traffic accidents natural and manmade disasters, hazardous materials incidents, and rescue emergencies. A seventh fire station is slated to open in October of 2012 and will minimally be staffed with a fire engine. Fire engines provide the initial response to any request for emergency service. These fire apparatus are staffed with paramedic firefighters to provide advance life support care for any medical emergency. Additionally, when responding to a fire, their primary responsibilities include laying water supply lines; locating, accessing, and extinguishing the fire; search and rescue if no truck company is available; and assisting in the overhaul and salvage. Truck companies provide search and rescue; forcible entry; a rapid intervention crew (RIC) in case of a building collapse; ventilation of smoke and hot gases; aerial water application; staffing to augment the engine company compliment; and provide backup response to emergency calls for service when engine companies are committed elsewhere. Truck company personnel are trained to a higher level than fire engine personnel due to the nature of the calls they respond to. These incidents include swift water rescue, low angle rescue, high rise incidents, wide rise incidents, confined space rescue, and trench rescues. Truck companies also carry equipment not normally located on a fire engine. This equipment includes heavy rescue equipment, confined space rescue equipment, low angle rescue equipment, auto extrication equipment (Jaws of Life), a variety of ground ladders, smoke removal fans, and large water delivery appliances. On an initial report of a fire there is an automatic dispatch of three fire engines, one truck company, and one Battalion Chief for a total of 13 personnel. When the fire is confirmed to be a working fire, there are two additional units dispatched providing a minimum of 19 fire personnel on scene per Riverside County Fire Department Policy which results in a total of 6 fire apparatus and one Chief Officer committed to the incident. This leaves a total of two fire apparatus available for dispatch in the City until Riverside County Fire is able to move up additional fire apparatus from neighboring jurisdictions to cover the City's vacant stations.
