6/30/2015 <br /> Fire Department <br /> • There is enhanced recognition for automatic-aid <br /> (personnel and equipment) including fire departments <br /> that operate with common fireground procedures, <br /> standard operating procedures, and incident <br /> management systems. <br /> • Fire department's deployment analysis, based on NFPA <br /> 1710, is a potential alternative to the traditional road- <br /> mile distribution standard for response districts, 1.5 road <br /> miles for an engine company and 2.5 road miles for a <br /> ladder service company. <br /> Fire Department <br /> • The use of consensus standards, particularly in <br /> fire department training, credit is available for <br /> fire officer certification; and the evaluation of <br /> pre-incident planning on an annual basis rather <br /> than semiannual inspections. <br /> • ISO placed additional emphasis on firefighter <br /> safety, including personal protective equipment, <br /> increased recognition for driver/operator <br /> training, and the realization that personnel carry <br /> out successful fire suppression operations only if <br /> they are able to avoid accidents and injury. <br /> I1 11 <br />
