RIVERSIDE FIRE AUTHORITY FIELD OPERATING GUIDELINES INCIDENT ACTION PLAN DEVELOPMENT First arriving company officers at structure fires shall assume Command of the incident and develop an initial incident action plan. Company officers possess the authority to make tactical assignments appropriate to the needs of the situation based on the incident priorities of Rescue, Fire Control/Incident Stabilization and Property Conservation. Once the initial action plan is developed, the initial arriving company officer is to communicate the plan over the tactical radio channel in use to other resources assigned to the incident. FIRE CONTROL / RESCUE PROPERTY CONSERVATION INCIDENT STABLIZATION Firefighter Safety takes priority over all decisions and priority assignment!  Primary Search & Rescue  Fire Confinement  Salvage, Overhaul  Medical Aid and Care  Extinguishment  Defensive Exposure  Evacuation and Relocation  Ventilation  Protection Positions  Control and Containment  Smoke & Water Removal OFFENSIVE STRATEGY – DEFENSIVE STRATEGY – Lloyd Layman's TACTICAL NEEDS TACTICAL NEEDS 7 factors (RECEO VS):  Ventilation  Additional resources  Rescue  Fire Attack  Evacuation of exposures  Exposures  Primary search  Aggressive exterior  Confinement  Check for extension attack  Extinguishment  Water supply  Aggressive exposure  Overhaul  Exposure protection protection  Overhaul/Salvage  Charlie side operations  Ventilation  Secure Utilities  Water supply  Salvage  RIC  RIC  Medical  Secure Utilities  Medical FACTORS TO CONSIDER  Can (or should) the first arriving engine company establish it’s own water supply?  Should the first arriving engine drop a supply line at the driveway and lay in to the structure and direct the water supply engine company to continue the layout to the hydrant?  Is there a potential for rescue that requires immediate action, in place of attacking the fire?  What immediate support is needed to accomplish a potential rescue; is there an immediate need for a hose line to provide protection to the crew attempting the rescue or for immediate ventilation to improve interior conditions?  Are there severely threatened exposures that require protection before attacking the fire?  Should the second arriving engine company be directed to establish water supply, or be given a different task?  Are there specific and or extreme hazards to personnel (electrical hazards, structural integrity concerns, etc.) that must be mitigated before attacking the fire?  What is the best mode of attacking the fire: exterior versus interior attack?  What is the appropriate size of attack: 1 ¾”, 2 ½” or master stream and what is the appropriate GPM?  Should the responding truck company be directed to a specific location and set up the aerial or should it be directed to place ground ladders in specific locations?  Are adequate resources responding (where is the fire now, where will it be in five minutes)?  If the initial size up indicates nothing showing, should other responding units be directed to stage?
