Quote:How will these be deployed; are they for use on large scale brush fires or also intended for use in an urban setting?
If I remember correctly (it's been a few years since I lived in California) the CalEMA resources are "given" to local departments and can be used locally with the understanding that if the resources are needed for a strike team, the local department has to staff it and go. Those are Type 3 engines. I believe there's a handful of Type 1 engines, some USAR rigs, and water tenders as well.
