21:59:51   25-09-07   MBKR RESPOND TO FIRE ALARM ADELAIDE HILLS, HOMEMAKER LOT 221 DUTTON RD, MT BARKER *CFSRES:, FIP ALARM *WFAM*, 25/09/2007 21:58:54 CFS Mount Barker Response


22:16:47   25-09-07   MFS: INC # 89 - 25/09/07 22:16,RESPOND COMMERCIAL FIRE,DADDOW RD,MT BARKER, MAP 172 Q 5 ,,FLAMES SEEN FROM HARVEY NORMAN,1279 1268*CFSRES: CFS Mount Barker Response


Thats why a good response to fixed alarm is a must.

Who says there wasn't a good response to the fixed alarm?

I was listening to the scanner at the time and from the sounds of it they had two appliances on scene at the rear of the premises.  They may not have been in view of the caller who reported the flame, but it sounded like they were still on scene dealing with the situation.

Really shits me when people give other brigades a bad name by not getting their facts straight and casting aspersions on their response!

And no, I'm not from the brigade, I just know how pissed I'd be if the same thing was said about my brigade.

no delay at all..

first rescue and fire were still sent initially..

goes to show though, that ya cant trust initial information no matter the source... apparently 1 person extricated ?

I think it was just very badly worded. Perhaps a person in their 80's just out of hospital called because something was smouldering near their back door?

Mind you, I did a double take when I first read it...

Good rumors made it sound as if it was in big trouble and that they might get blue green algy now with no current.

Those problems may exist if the water stays stagnent, however if needed im sure it could be used for fire fighting purposes.  The water levels were good then though.

Not sure if it is interesting but certainly tragic. The news report was fairly detailed on the alleged cause. One interesting fact was Barmera SES was responded as well -


1928012 10:58:32 06-10-07 VEHICLE ACCIDENT MEET CHRIS AT HEADQUARTERS AT 12.15PM FROM STUART
1918239 10:58:30 06-10-07 VEHICLE ACCIDENT MEET CHRIS AT HEADQUARTERS AT 12.15PM FROM STUART
1918239 11:20:00 06-10-07 CHANGE OF TIME FOR RCR CHRIS WOULD LIKE EVERYBODY IN HEAD QUATERS NOW FROM STAURT
this was after a phone call from SAPOL Riverland direct to the Unit Manager (Stuart)
The reason this was interesting is that this is a fairly common in this area, Barmera is one of the best SES RCR units in the State (those who know Stuart knows how pationate he is about RCR).
Barmera were called to provide traffic control, Berri were put on notice in case relief were required. Another interesting fact is this -

1919385 09:52:19 06-10-07 WAIK: *CFSRES: MORE CREW REQUIRED RESPOND WAIKERIE STATION 06-10-07 09:53
1919390 09:52:17 06-10-07 WAIK: *CFSRES: MORE CREW REQUIRED RESPOND WAIKERIE STATION 06-10-07 09:53

Very quick call for more crew? Should this have generated a call for a second rescue crew? (3 trapped) Not that I think it would have made a difference, but if we are to fix on going response issues then everyone needs to play by the rules. If faced with the same message I would definitely have responded a second team. Cheers

Multiple persons trapped in multiple cars, there should have been two rescue trucks going.
To think they employed me as a drooling retard...

thats a standard press button message to say need more crew to get the truck going,  often pressed around the 4min mark after reciept of callout in the aim of getting the Crew on the Road within 6 minutes.   pretty much a silent Fire siren.    For this sort of callout, forget a simple pager message,  getting the fire siren going can ensure those in Blackspots get the message theres a going job right now.

bittenyakka, they are showing private alarms to Woodside Army camp because of what zippy posted, its not monitored by a security company, its the army camp ringing the ALERTS number to find out why no one has attended the alarm, and ADELAIDE FIRE paging out for a response :-D
