Does the CBRNE unit als function as a heavy rescue or strictly hazmat?

 

From what I have seen they function as a first responder for medical, major accidents scense, HAZMAT, and on fire ground. Their primary duty is HAZMAT but they respond on just about anything else. The City of Las Vegas Fire Department has a Heavy Rescue Company that responds on all major rescue calls and fires.

 

Heavy Rescue 44 responds on all major alarms. The picture below is of Heavy Rescue 44 on the Scene of the Cosmopolitan Hotel fire earlier this summer.
