These trucks provide specialty rescue equipment such as air tools, hydraulic tools, cutting tools, cutting torches, and lighting for response to motor vehicle incidents, structure fires, collapsed structures, water rescues, and other incidents. A systematic approach is used for acquiring new fire rescue trucks as new facilities are constructed and replacing old fire rescue trucks that have exceeded their life expectancy. FY 17 $0
