I was curious on why a dt or dozer team would respond on a 2nd alarm for a commercial fire. Could somebody please explain thx

A little off topic but I like the way how CHP has their lights set up when they’re rolling it’s in a flashing mode or strobe in mode and when their stops it goes to a steady burn

Great run down. What does the crisis response unit do ? Do they handle things like housing and welfare after the fire

Thank you 

What is the ric/rit operations for lv or cc fire 

Thx for the run down 

There we go with the acronym again lol

is A squad added to all first alarms ?

So what would be the current assignment for a 1st alarm? And the dispatch before it’s a full alarm thx

Right on

3-1 assignment will be dispatched for structure fires that do not indicate the need for a First Alarm assignment.
Response Requirements: 3 ENG, LAD, 2 BC, RES (if within a 4-mile radius) (RIC)--Working 3-1’s receive a RIC assignment. A RIC assignment consists of a 3-1 plus ENG, RES, U, CCU, RH

 Alarms
Criteria: A First Alarm will be dispatched for structure fires when reports indicate this level of resource may be needed. This may be based on reports that indicate an actual or potential situation. A First Alarm may be dispatched for other types of incidents at the discretion of Dispatch personnel.
Response Requirements: 5ENG, 2LAD, RES, 2 BC, SDC, NDC, CV, U, RH, C957, C307 (if within a 4-mile radius), (SC), (ALS)

could someone decipher the acronyms for the units thx

Good stuff thank you!!!! is there a response for rail incident or is that a cat b response also ?

And would the same go for lacofd if anyone knows thank you 

Category a assignment for lafd will have 2 engines a task force and ra so will one of the engine companies be assigned ric or the truck company ?

Does Phoenix plan on getting any new foam engines or tenders?

Clark county rescues have extrication tools on board does lv have the same?

Good stuff thx

Any new ladder tenders in the future

They have 1 FF/EMT and 1 FF/Paramedic. They take the sick and injured to the hospital. During hazard calls, they link up with their engine or ladder counterpart and do firefighter stuff. If they arrive late or there is a potential pt, they'll stage. 

I thought all fire fighters we’re emt level 

 What are the current capabilities of a phoenix fire department rescue ambulance? And what are their duties at a structure fire ?thank you
