5 How did we come to this conclusion? NFPA 1710 Standard for the Organizational and Deployment of Fire Suppression Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public by Career Fire Departments The NFPA 1710 Technical committee members had collectively over 1000 years of fire fighting experience in small medium, and metro fire departments. 5

6 Why 1710? The standard covers every topic the committee has been tasked to address! Who goes? How many? How long should it take? What jobs are essential? Who is going to be in command? Training, communications, the whole shot! Standard defines various companies and typical operations with staffing levels defined for each. Engine companies- pump and deliver water to seat of fire (4 man minimum) Ladder or Truck companies- perform ventilation, search and rescue, forcible entry, aerial operations (4 man minimum) Supervisory chief officers (1) Special Units (as determined by jurisdiction) Initial Full Alarm Assignment Establish Incident Command (1 IC) Establish uninterrupted water supply of 400 g.p.m. for thirty minutes (1 engineer) Two hand lines attack/ back-up (4 FF) Hydrant Hook-up (1 FF) Search/ Rescue team (2 FF) Ventilation Team (2 FF) If operating aerial (2 FF) RIC team (2 FF) 6

7 Initial Full Alarm Assignment These assignments are then given a time to which tasks must be accomplished Turnout time (60 seconds) Arrival of first engine (4 minutes) Arrival of full assignment (8 minutes) One minute (60 seconds) for turnout time. Four minutes (240 seconds) or less for the arrival of the first arriving engine company at a fire suppression incident. 8 minutes (480 seconds) or less for the deployment of a full first alarm assignment at a fire suppression incident Four minutes (240 seconds) or less for the arrival of the first arriving engine company at a fire suppression incident. 7

8 8 minutes (480 seconds) or less for the deployment of a full first alarm assignment at a fire suppression incident. The initial full alarm assignment shall provide for the following: Incident Command Establish water supply Attack lines Back-up team for each line Search and Rescue Ventilation Rapid Intervention Crew The fire department shall establish a performance objective of not less than ninety percent for each response time objective.
