UP TO 20 PEOPLE MISSING NEAR GRANITE ISLAND ALL BOATS AND CREWS REQUIRED URGENT VMR 521



Nice to see it took 6 incidents for south coast SES to call in some assistance with storm damage albiet from yankalilla.

5 jobs on the go and then they get this

1908073 13:39:32 02-07-07 MFS: DAILY INC. NO. 44 - 02/07/07 13:39,RESPOND COLLAPSED BUILD,FOSTER PL,GOOLWA, MAP 307 L 6 ,,GARDEN SHED ABOUT TO BLOW INTO NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR HOUSE. MRS LEWIS 8555**** P2,79550 73229*CFSRES

Only 300metres from our station.

Yes i realise storm damage isn't our primary job but with this many calls shouldn't they be passing some of these jobs onto CFS?

5271rescue:
Yes they should be passing on these calls to the nearest brigade/service

Firefrog:
SES don't think like a fire service.......They run job boards which fill up and they will work all night finishing all the jobs and clearing the board.

Fire Services call in resources until each job has been resourced.....

Seems like a big step backwards.  Hope only a brief glitch in the new system.
