A17, when in service(additional truck when non-OT staffing permits), shifts from BPD District 13, and is poted in Roslindale Square as an impact truck for overflow calls in Districts 5, 13 and 18.



All of the impact trucks are staffed from 0600-0200 daily in 2 10 hour shifts. A15 is in service from 0700-2300 in 2 8 hour shifts. P16 Runs from 0800-0000 in 2 8 hour shifts, and P3 runs from 0630-2230 in 2 8 hour shifts.



Any truck with a number above 20, is a spare vehicle, and the number is for fleet use only. Any of these vehicles can be used at any time, and usually get a designation in the CAD as a 30 series truck if it is extra, or as the district vehicle that it is covering for. So it is not unusual to see A31, but it is actually A2, or A29 running as A11. If the spares are being used as extra trucks, they will get a 30 series designation in the CAD and a 40 series designation if they are a Paramedic truck. Confused yet?[/quote]



Am I reading this right. You only have 5 ALS trucks?
