Apparatus

The 14ft foot rigid inflatable boat is powered by a 40hp jet motor. This boat has a low-profile aluminum hull that can operate in depths as shallow as 4 inches of water. Navigation, depth and charting equipment are all integrated into the boat's electronic system. The AB Profile rescue boat is used for water operations to include but not limited to water rescue and reconnaissance. This piece of apparatus was obtained on a generous grant from the California State Parks and Recreation, Division Boating and Waterways. The boat is identified as Boat 11.

Command vehicles are primarily used to transport and support chief officers responsible for operational command and control functions. Within the PulsePoint application the command vehicles are staffed by a Battalion Chief (B11) or other command personnel (C1100 or C1101). 

The Airbus 135 helicopter is a state-of-the-art air ambulance equipped with ICU-level medical equipment, advanced avionics, and critical safety features. This aircraft is staffed by a highly trained team, including a critical care flight nurse, a critical care paramedic, and an experienced pilot. Operated by REACH Air Global under a public-private partnership, the Airbus 135 provides rapid emergency medical care when every second counts. This vital resource enhances the region’s ability to respond swiftly to medical emergencies, ensuring patients receive lifesaving treatment as quickly as possible. In addition to emergency medical response, this aircraft supports aerial reconnaissance, fire suppression efforts, and large-scale disaster response.The call sign for the helicopter is Copter 11.

A ladder truck, also known as a quint, is a specialized firefighting apparatus designed to provide multiple critical functions at fire scenes and rescue operations. The term "quint" comes from the word quintuple, meaning five, as this type of apparatus combines five essential firefighting capabilities into a single vehicle: Aerial Ladder, Pump, Water Tank, Hose, and Ground Ladders. The Quint is used for Fire Suppression, Rescue Operations, Ventilation, and Overhaul & Salvage. Within the PulsePoint application this engine type is identified as Q11. 

The Heavy Rescue is a "tool box on wheels" equipped with heavy lifting, core drilling, search, shoring and other specialized equipment to support the District's Urban Search and Rescue Team. Urban Search and Rescue involves the location, rescue, and initial stabilization of victims trapped in confined spaces. The unit also carries equipment to support rope rescue, trench rescue, entanglement emergencies, heavy equipment accidents and flood/swift water rescue. Within the PulsePoint application this engine type is identified as R11. 

Type 1 fire engines are our ‘First Out’ and the ‘Swiss army knives’ of Fire Engines. They are equipped with large diameter supply hose, have very high-capacity pumps, and are designed to operate on paved surfaces. The District staffs two front line Type 1 engines each day. Within the PulsePoint application engines of this type are indicated with an "E" followed by two digits, such as E11or E211.

Type 3 fire engines are designed to fight fires in areas unreachable with Type 1 engines. Type 3 engines are equipped with four-wheel drive, rugged suspension and high wheel clearance for steep, off-road conditions. Within the PulsePoint application this engine type is identified as E411. 

Type 6 fire engines are also designed to fight fires in areas unreachable with Type 1 engines. Type 6 engines are equipped with four-wheel drive, rugged suspension and high wheel clearance for steep, off-road conditions. They are designed for quick mobile attacks in the grasslands that surround the developed areas of our Fire District. Within the PulsePoint application this engine type is identified as BR11.

The water tender is a specialized firefighting apparatus designed to transport large quantities of water to fire scenes, particularly in areas where fire hydrants are limited or unavailable. Water tenders play a crucial role in rural firefighting, wildland fire response, and large-scale incidents requiring sustained water supply. In the PulsePoint application this engine type is identified as WT11.
