    Recycling of Companies

    • Recycling is essential for efficient air replacement and re-hydration of companies while maintaining their sector assignment.
    • Communication with the Incident Commander (IC) is not required for recycling companies.
    • Sector Officers oversee the functionality and status of assigned companies, including those in the recycling process.

    Air and Fluid Replacement

    • Companies within a sector need regular air and fluid replenishment, typically every 2 to 3 air cylinders as conditions permit.
    • Timely recycling of crews helps ensure a steady supply of resources in critical sectors.
    • Crews exiting a sector must follow established guidelines for exposure reduction and decontamination before reporting back to duty.

    Utility Company Assignment

    • Command/Sector Officers can request a Utility Company to assist with recycling operations in designated geographic sectors.
    • Utility trucks expedite the recycling process, especially when companies cannot return promptly due to operational needs.
    • Company Officers are encouraged to predict their time in the sector and bring spare air cylinders for efficient recycle processes.

    Welfare Monitoring and Rehab

    • Sector and Company Officers must always monitor their personnel's welfare to assess the need for recycling or formal rehabilitation.
    • In large-scale incidents, a Rehab Sector may be established for crew recovery.
    • Crews assigned to the Rehab Sector usually return to service after recuperation but may face challenges related to accountability and reassignments due to distance from the work area.

    Challenges in Rehab Sector

    • Potential downsides of the Rehab Sector include loss of direct accountability while crews are en route for rehabilitation.
    • Difficulty in reassembling and reassigning crews promptly may impact operations after rehab.
