Country Fire Service / Re: Official bushfire warnings
« on: December 25, 2005, 07:35:53 PM »Maybe the radio actually has to be battery powered to hear it?
The CFS media announcements on the website now state "...Stay tuned to your Local Radio Station or Local ABC Radio on a battery-powered radio for more information about bushfires in your area.."

We did about 40 structure related jobs and we far from qualify for a pumper even with all the risk in our area, figure that out

Are you sure?
Nothing against Hahndorf, but wouldn't have thought that a new type 2 pumper for their brigade would have been justifiable. Why not replace their old pumper with a 24P like every other brigade out there?

SA Firefighter General / Service Level Agreement
« on: December 10, 2005, 02:23:23 PM »
Upon browsing the new Volunteer mag i came across and article where it states the CFS is currently negotiating a "service level agreement" with the MFS. Does anyone have any info on this and how will it affect CFS brigades if at all? ie will they be responding less or more into CFS areas.

Just curious as to what athelstone 34p with be replacing their 24p or 34??

I believe it is their 34 that is getting replaced. Not sure how they work out who gets what but i thought there would be other brigades out there with higher risks who would possibly need 2 "P" appliances.

« on: November 06, 2005, 03:00:49 PM »Was talking to a DGO from another group in region five and he said its true we are not allowed on the roof of anything over 1.4 meters.I reckon it would be near 1.4 metres high to get into the cab of our new 34, might not be able to get in without a harness anymore.
