Re: Incident Control Vehicle
Ahhhh, these are the ones!!
This is a new ICV design currently being implemented within FESA. The idea is that these ICVs will be deployed at a regional level, responding to larger incidents, and crewed by volunteer crew.
The ICV in the picture is the prototype - the comittee is currently finalising the details of fit-out (standardisation being highly important) and crew training.
I'd be keen to see these all painted up too!

Re: Incident Control Vehicle
Exactly the same way it happens now. Almost all Local Government Authorities currently operate brigades with their own ICVs, with volunteer crews that are paged/called/turned out same as the fire fighting crews and appliances. They are often used through the fire season as the Contol Point for fires at the northern and southern ends of the metro area, and along and beyond the Darling Scarp. These new vehicles will simply be replacing the existing vehicles, standardising a fleet which is currently a mix of various retro-fitted old buses and vans. Do a search for 'ICV' in the Pictures forum and you will find pics of some of the different vehicles in service from an ex MTT bus down to Mitsubishi L300 van.SgtSeedy wrote:not sure how a constant regional deployment using volunteers is going to go..... will be interesting to see!

Re: Incident Control Vehicle
The state of some of the ICV's being used at the moment is a joke!
not saying they arent looked after, but they are so old and there all very different (as previously stated)
FESA are trying to standardise it all so if there is a big fire, in say... wanneroo then should there be a need to crew
it with vollies from chittering then they will know where everything is and everything will run like
clockwork (in theory)
