They could possibly use the old Station 6, not far south of their present location

It is used for storage and the fire inspectors, I beleive

Checked LVFR Facebook page and there is more pictures of this unit They describe it as a quint, but I thought that the present Tower 7 was a quint, maybe not  The new unit is a quint so as to replace their former engine which is now at Station 107 in Sun City Summerlin

The present unit is Tower 7, a 2012 Pierce Q

Seems strange to switch it for an aerial at this location.

Interesting

Thought that CAL FIRE and OES had a long term contract with HME

for Type 3s

It did say 6 aerials in the 25MM budget, so you have listed 11,14,21,40, 44

Where did the sixth RM get assigned?

I assume that the old 90s aerials(spares) will be sold,if not gone already

Are they carried as 2017, or 2016?

That should be correct.  OES rigs are all painted in their colors and markings

They are loaned to the departments that house them,maintain them and staff them

LAFD may have ordered some OES or CAL FIRE spec'd rigs and piggybacked

on the OES/CAL FIRE bid package.

In today's Las Vegas paper. NLV City Council approved,Wednesday night, the purchase of a new aerial from Pierce to replace a ten year old aerial now out of service. I assume it is T 52 a 2008 model.

The present aerial needs $ 32,500 to fix it and when done will be a reserve piece, they said.

I think it is to numbered 91

You bring up an interesting question about an assignment list of all the

OES units.

I was told directly from and inside source at OES, that due to the need for

security reasons, they do not publish a list of assignments for the public.

That OES officer said that you may well be able to read about individual assignments as they happen and obtain the assignments that way.

Over the years I have built a list for the type 2s, type 3s and some other OES units

as they are assigned. This list is not complete and never will be given the

lack of access for the public, it seems. Maybe it will change, not sure

at this point.

Engine 55 got a new Type 3 engine in 2011   KME built it,  a Int/KME  750 GPM engine for the Avalon station

The small shed at Twin Harbors had an old Ford unit that would just fit in the small building there

Not sure of other changes on the island

Thanks

Have not seen any of the Smeals on the street yet.

What are the new engine assignments, one is lettered 201

the others?

Update , there was only one new squad purchased, that is Sq 32

which is based at City Center Station with Engine 32.

Rescue 13 at McCarran  Airport is now called Sq 13

This info from my neighbor, a CCFD Capt

Correct, however, a CCFD Capt told me that they did receive a couple of new squads recently I think that one is at 18, have not seen it on the road as yet

I also think that the Mt Charleston Station received a new engine a few years ago:

also:

new water tender: in 2007 below:

also several new squads

I believe that as funds are available, they have tried to upgrade the vol stations

while still replacing the main career fleet

Here are two new engines bought for the Vol stations:

My guess is no on the CCFD basic fleet. On any engines for the vol.

stations, they have bought Ferrara engines in "08 and "10 for volly stations

Groundbreaking took place for Henderson, NV fire station 91 at the Inspirada development.

This will be a $5.85 million station at 11,000 square foot,expected to open in fall 2017

This is the first new fire station in 15 years in Henderson

Update, as of yesterday, new Tower 18 still at CCFD shops awaiting more new equipment.

Training on the new Tower 18 is starting on the unit while at the shops.

This unit will have all NEW equipment, all the old equipment on the present T 18 will stay with the truck

which will be a reserve unit at a station that has room to house it.

Many new engines coming in from Pierce.  Also a new tanker, and brush attack units now at the CCFD shops

according to my source. Those units will go to the volly stations throughout the County

All 14 are on the Pierce Custom Pumper "under construction" site:

http://www.hughesfire.com/custom-pumper-construction-photos.html

Clark County Fire ordered two short wheelbase engines for specific stations

I doubt that will be the norm on most future CCFD engines

If anyone has the assignments of these 14 engines, besdies Engine 9, please put them on this site.

Are they considered 2015 models, or 2016?

The Hughes "under construction" site from Pierce shows many Phoenix engines in process

New CCFD Tower 18 is at the dealer in Phoenix, waiting for some equipment to finish outfitting

Thank you for the assignment updates

Excellent news

OES has a contract with HME to build these Type 3s

From an initial fleet of 15,which were built by Rosenbauer in 2007,

OES has started to purchase more type 3s in 2014 and 2015

for other regions.

This is a huge positive addition to the State of California for wildland  firefighting

If Carlsbad's OES engine is 8640

Does anyone know San Marcos's number (maybe 8641?)

also Rancho Cucamonga, Corona and Redlands assigned numbers?
