EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Fire Chief Michael Schofield I am humbled and honored to serve as the Fire Chief/Administrator of the Orland Fire Protection District. I have a unique insight in the District having been a member since 1977, when I started my career as a cadet firefighter in 1977 and working my way through the ranks to where I am today. This has afforded me the opportunity of working under every Fire Chief in the history of the District (with myself being the 10th). Prior to the formation of the Fire District, there was a Village of Orland Park Fire Department dating back to the 1890’s and we were able to find the names of the Fire Chiefs going back to 1930’s. Since 1969, when the District was formed, we hit the ground running, designing and building a state-of-the-art fire station and moving into it in 1974, becoming one of the first Fire Districts to have Paramedics, then one of the first in the District’s area to have full-time Firefighter/Paramedics. The District’s Firsts continued: the regions first Training Center, the areas first Water Rescue team, the first Tactical Rescue Team, the first Hazardous Materials team and so on. We will continue this tradition of always looking ahead, leading the way, providing the best Emergency Fire, Rescue and EMS Services possible and always improving.

The Orland Fire District’s leadership, starting with the Board of Trustees, have made it clear that we serve the changing needs of the District and do it by being proactively-prepared, not reactive. We have gone from a farming/rural community with a population around 6,000 people to a major commercial/medical destination with a District population of close to 70,000 swelling to 150,000 during business hours. Through preparation and training, we maintain the District’s level of service. If you are having a medical emergency, a fire, become trapped or injured because of a natural event such as a tornado or a flood, pinned in a car from an accident, involved in a construction accident 100 feet in the air or 100 feet below grade, we are trained and prepared.

Orland Fire, just like every other Fire Department, like to think they are providing the service they claim, and they are doing it well. We have members in key positions developing curriculum at the state level regarding firefighter and fire officer training and certification. The same is true with specialty team training and certifications. The question is how this is translated to the rank and file of the District and what effect does it have on what we claim and what we truly do.

Through the Community Risk Assessment-Standards of Cover, the Strategic Plan, and the Fire and Emergency Services Self-Assessment Manual, we will reset where needed, we will build on the District’s strengths, we will learn from the District’s weaknesses, and set plans and policies to meet those shortcomings. We will embrace opportunities and meet threats with planning and preparation.

In 2016, I was appointed Fire Chief. We were short Administrative and Operations Chiefs on days, but before filling these positions we needed to define the roles, needs, and direction of the Fire District. This process and the incredible work presented by the Accreditation Team has provided the groundwork necessary to move forward.

The Conclusions and Recommendations presented in this report will now become the groundwork of the District’s new Command Team to investigate, create timelines and benchmarks and implement as soon as possible.

While some of the Conclusion and Recommendations are not new, they are now fact and analysis based with input from all. If not addressed, they can stop the Fire District’s forward progress and force us to become a reactive organization instead of being proactively-prepared for the needs of the residents, which is not the direction giving to us by the District’s Board of Trustees.

INTRODUCTION The Orland Fire Protection District has conducted a Community Risk Assessment and Standards of Cover (CRA-SOC) for the District we serve. The primary purpose of these documents is two-fold: 1) Identify and assess risks specific to the District’s citizens, visitors, and businesses that the District protects.

2) Allocate an efficient, effective deployment distribution and concentration of resources to appropriately respond to meet the District’s mission of “protecting life and property”.

The basis of a Standard of Coverage document is to prove: 

A tool o o o o o o o

To assess community hazard risks: both fire and non-fire.

That defines baseline emergency response performance standards.

For determining apparatus and staffing patterns.

For planning for future station locations.

For evaluating workload and ideal unit utilization.

For measuring service delivery performance.

That supports strategic planning and policy development relative to resources and allocation of funds.

This analysis is part of the District’s continuous driven improvement process and is divided into 4 parts:



AREA CHARACTERISTICS



PROGRAMS and SERVICES



COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT



DEPLOYMENT and PERFORMANCE

Once the CRA analysis was complete, the District established a Standards of Cover (SOC) which includes Performance Objectives and Measures identified in these two parts:



PLAN FOR MAINTAINING and IMPROVING PERFORMANCE



CONCLUSIONS and RECOMMMENDATIONS

In addition to developing a Fire and Emergency Service Self-Assessment Manual (FESSAM), containing 10 categories with up to 252 performance indicators, the CRA-SOC and the STRATEGIC PLAN are the three documents required to achieve Accreditation status from the CPSE – Center for Public Safety Excellence of which the District is striving to achieve in the fall of 2018.

DISTRICT HISTORY While the exact date of organized fire protection in the Orland area (incorporated in 1892) is uncertain, the earliest indications of a fire department include a volunteer fire department flag with the year 1894 sewn on, as well as a photo of uniformed members standing in front of a two-story building on Beacon Avenue with State Senator John Humphrey. Although some measure of fire protection must have existed before that, perhaps as bucket brigades, no records exist.

1894

This early Volunteer Department consisted of a four-man, hand-pulled pumping engine, a hose cart with 500 feet of hose and 14 members. They used the wood-frame building on Beacon Avenue, which doubled as a Village Hall and Firehouse, to store their equipment. The six-block farming community was guaranteed a good water supply thanks to a wooden water system and elevated water tower erected in 1892.

Established

The Orland area’s first major fires occurred in November 1912 when a small settlement known as Alpine, located near 167th Street and 108th Avenue, called for help. The volunteers hauled their equipment over nearly two miles of wagon-rutted roads only to arrive too late. Two saloons and the only general store burned to the ground, thus dooming the future of that town since the buildings were never rebuilt.

In 1914, Peter J. Pitts was named Fire Marshal. His duties, besides overseeing the volunteers, included cleaning the village water tank for a fee of $5. The Fire Department’s budget for the year was $100. The 25-member fire department survived on a small stipend from the village and various fundraisers. In 1923, the Village of Orland Park enacted a Foreign Fire Tax to capture revenues from insurance companies (which would help fund the growing Fire Department), purchased another hose cart and fire hose and approved 23 fire hydrants for the town. The first motorized vehicle would not be purchased for another six years. Under the direction of Chief Carl Quigley, the Department purchased a 1929 Chevrolet chemical engine from the Prospect Fire Company for $3,500.

Donations from area farmers helped finance the deal. Those farmers who refused to donate were billed for later service should they need it. The new engine, which served both the town and rural areas, came equipped with a front-mount pump, two forty-gallon water tanks, a tank of bicarbonate of soda and small bottles of sulfuric acid. In town, the engine would hook up to fire hydrants (bypassing the pump) and in rural areas, the soda and acid were combined to create gas that would propel water through the booster line. The village appointed the fire marshals up until 1930 when

the volunteers could elect the next Fire Chief. John Helenhouse, the town barber, police constable, and volunteer Firefighter, served as Chief for the next eleven years.

One of the rare calls for mutual aid from the City of Chicago came from the famous stockyards fire in 1931. While there, the Orland Park Firefighters teamed up with a Blue Island fire company to fight an apartment building fire.

Arthur Granat Sr., the seminal figure who would later serve 29 years as Fire Chief and the longest tenure of any Orland Fire Chief, joined the volunteer ranks in 1946. Elected Fire Chief in 1957, Granat, Sr. led the department as it transitioned from a predominantly rural service to a more suburban-oriented one.

In 1969, he was instrumental in forming the Orland Fire Protection District after voters approved a referendum the previous year. Chief Granat became the first full-time employee of the District in 1973 and was later honored with the dedication of the Orland Fire Protection District Training Facility in his name.

Robert M. Buhs, appointed Fire Chief/Administrator in 1988, oversaw the transition of a small organization to a modern professional Fire/Rescue operation growing the District from two stations to five, thanks largely to an overwhelming voter approved $8 million referendum passed in late 1987. That year, the total number of full-time Firefighters stood at 26 and the District appropriated budget $8.7 million responding to 3,568 calls annually.

In 1989, the first group of 21 candidates from the outside were tested and hired.

The District originally covered roughly 30 square miles, including the Villages of Orland Park, Westhaven (now Orland Hills) and unincorporated Orland Township. Another three-square mile was added in 1990 when the subdivisions of Brook Hills, Eagle Ridge and Mallard Landing annexed into the District and a sixth Fire Station was constructed.

Today, the Orland Fire Protection District continues to provide innovative and cutting-edge service to the residents and visitors to the area. In 2017, the District is a multifunction fire protection and life-safety organization with over 119 suppression personnel backed up by 36 support staff and covers approximately 30 square miles. The District serves a population more than 70,000 operating from six stations, a regional training campus, a maintenance facility, and an administration headquarters/regional dispatch center responding to nearly 10,000 incidents per year with an operating budget of $34.1 million.

A line of duty death for the Orland Fire Protection District occurred in 1998.

Battalion Chief William Bonnar, Sr. joined the District in 1972 as a volunteer and went on to become an EMT, then enrolled in the first Paramedic program at Ingalls Hospital, in Harvey, IL. Chief Bonnar, Sr. joined the Chicago Fire Department in 1974 as a Paramedic. In 1977, Chief Bonnar left Chicago to become one of the first full-time Firefighter/Paramedics for the District. In 1980, before becoming a Chief, he helped organize the Firefighters to create the IAFF Local 2754 union and served as the first union president. Over the next decade Chief Bonnar was promoted several times from Lieutenant to Shift Commander and finally to Battalion Chief in 1990. On February 2, 1998, Chief Bonnar, Sr. was found unresponsive in his vehicle after participating in an annual air consumption drill. Fellow Orland Firefighter/Paramedics attempted resuscitation and the Chief was transported to the hospital where he passed away at the age of 62 after serving 26 years in the fire service.

In 1999 the Technical Rescue Team responded to the Bourbonnais Amtrak train crash. On March 15, a semi- truck loaded with steel went around the warning gates and collided with the City of New Orleans passenger train. The collision caused both locomotives and 11 out of the 14 cars to derail. Many of the passengers were trapped in the cars and had to be extricated from the debris field.

The crash killed 11 people and caused 122 injuries.

Thanks again to the support of the community in 2002, Orland Fire was able to pass a referendum to add a Rescue Tax (.05%) With this growth over the few years, staff was added, the Engineer rank was established, facilities and equipment were upgraded, and Orland Fire became a center for training, especially in Technical Rescue and HazMat, for the south Chicagoland area and beyond.

In 2005, Hurricane Katrina descended on Louisiana and the surrounding states. Local providers were quickly overwhelmed and immediately called for help. This was the largest national call for and deployment of mutual aid in the history of the fire service at that time. Orland Fire sent equipment and three Firefighters along with 950 other First Responders from Illinois. These responders spent six weeks in Louisiana assisting local departments with water rescues, building collapse operations, rebuilding of firehouses and other duties.

2010 saw the opening of the Blue Card Training Center at the new Command Training Center or CTC. This CTC was the first in the State of Illinois and one of a dozen or so across the country as a new facility that allowed for formalization and expanded training opportunities. The Blue Card program is an Incident Command certification training program that teaches officers how to standardize local company operations at incidents across their organization (and other mutual aid partners) to create a safer, more efficient Hazard Zone Management.

Blue Card was developed by the late Chief Alan Brunacini of the Phoenix Fire Department and then adopted by Orland Fire in 2009.

The Blue Card program is now a cornerstone of the training provided by the Training Department, and so far, has trained and certified over 1,000 Incident Commanders from around the State and Country.

Another Line of Duty Death (LODD) occurred in 2009. Raymond C. Marquardt started as a volunteer and worked as a boat mechanic until being hired as a full-time Firefighter in 1977.

He was promoted to lieutenant in 1981 and remained a dedicated Firefighter until his retirement in 1999. Lt Marquardt succumbed to a duty-related illness.

The most recent major response for aid by Orland Fire was in 2015, after an EF3 tornado struck Coal City, IL. The tornado caused damage to almost 900 buildings, including their fire station. Orland Fire along with thirty other communities, sent technical rescuer team members to help search and rescue/recover victims trapped in collapsed buildings.

In 2017, the District answered nearly 10,000 calls (9,847) which is an increase of over 46% since 2000 and 23.8% since 2010. The District protects the Village of Orland Park, the Village of Orland Hills and unincorporated Orland Township. The resident population is approximately 70,000+, which can swell to well over 150,000 during the day.

Today, Orland Fire is predominantly residential with a large retail base. Residential occupancies range from small ranches to some that are more than twenty thousand square ft.! The District still has rural/agricultural pockets within the area along with forest preserves, manufacturing complexes, office buildings and major transportation corridors. I-80 defines the southern border and major state highways run through the District.

The District achieved ISO Class 1 in 2017 and is working towards Fire Service Accreditation. The District answers calls for EMS, structure and other type fires, auto accidents/extrication, hazardous materials, water rescue, high angle rescue, trench rescue and structural collapse and has maintained an average median response time of 3 min. and 48 sec. and responds to 90% of emergency incidents in less than 6 min. and 20 sec.

The District protects the largest shopping mall in the Chicago southland (Orland Square Mall and Orland Park Place draw shoppers from the entire southwest Chicago region and beyond), in addition to national manufacturing companies, hotels and the hub for commercial activity and development driving growth in COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

the area. The LaGrange Rd corridor is the main traffic thoroughfare moving 70,000+ vehicles per day.

These roads carry a growing population to 2 specialty hospitals, 28 schools, 1 University, 1 College, 57 big box and large retailers, many government offices (IRS, FBI, Social Security and 2 USPS facilities). Along with telecommunications switching stations, internet and cyber facilities, there are numerous hightension power lines, switching stations and many underground pipelines in the District.

As one of the largest Districts in Illinois and the best-trained department in the southwest suburbs, the District provides the expertise, personnel, and training to specialized mutual aid teams. This, in addition to training in firefighting and emergency medical services. This has standardized the training for local MABAS division to ensure consistency of operation throughout the response area. As a major participant in local and state technician-trained specialty teams, the District is relied on by many communities to provide personnel and equipment to the affected areas. The District covers other communities in nearby MABAS Divisions that have less resources or under-trained personnel to mitigate situations in all disciplines, especially Special Operations. Many communities rely on the District’s mutual aid to provide the resources for rescue type incidents experienced during natural disasters or domestic terrorism.

LEGAL and FINANCIAL BASIS

Orland Fire was established as a fire department in 1894 and passed via election and voter referendum to form a Fire Protection District in 1969.

The District’s authority as a Fire Protection District is defined in 70 ILCS 705. The Orland Fire District’s main operating funds are the General, Ambulance, Tort, and Rescue Funds with an overall Budgeted Revenue for 2018 of $34,075,000 – 80.9% from property tax ($28,314,000).

The Board of Trustees is the Orland Fire Protection District’s policy-making body that is responsible for providing financial oversight and strategic policy direction. It consists of five locally-elected officials, each of whom serves a six-year term.

The Orland Fire Protection District’s Board of Fire Commissioners is a policy-making body appointed by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Fire Commissioners is responsible for regulating examinations for original appointments, examinations for promotions, and hearings on charges brought against members of the District. Each Commissioner serves a three-year term.

The Orland Fire Protection District’s Finance Bureau consists of a Finance Director, an Assistant Finance Director, and an Accounting Assistant. The Bureau develops, disperses, and accounts for the budget of the Fire District. As a special taxing District, the revenue side of the budget is mainly received from property taxes. State Statutes (include 50/ILCS 330/3) define how revenue and disbursements are handled. The Board of Trustees adopts a budget ordinance after it has been publicly displayed and a public hearing has taken place. After the budget ordinance, the Board adopts a levy ordinance which provides Cook County information to utilize for the property tax cycle.

The Finance Bureau has received the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting from the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) every year since 2008.

The Budget Process is a collaborative process developing a financial plan for the following year. Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, except that encumbrances are recorded as the equivalent of expenditures for budgetary basic purposes. It is also a reflection of the Strategic Plan.

PROPERTY TAXES Property tax helps to fund operations of all units of local government. Property tax is a major source of funding for police, utilities, fire departments and road maintenance. Federal and state law mandates some of the services provided by the local government. For instance, funding is set aside to finance special education, regulate against waste disposal and meet requirements for public safety standards.

Property taxes represent 80.9% of the 2018 budgeted revenue. The District levies property taxes for the purposes of the following funds – Corporate, Tort, Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund, Pension, Ambulance, Audit, Rescue, and Social Security. The property tax levies are filed with the Cook County Clerk.

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

The District has a diverse economic base; of the District’s Equalized Assessed Valuation (EAV): 68.4% is related to residential development, 30.6% is related to commercial development, and 1.0% is related to industrial development.

OTHER TAXES Other taxes include individual property replacement taxes and Foreign Fire Insurance. Replacement taxes are paid by businesses to replace revenue that was lost by local governments when they lost their power to impose individual property taxes on businesses in the 1970’s. Foreign Fire Insurance payments are made by every out-of-state insurance corporation for insurance premiums paid within the District. The Foreign Fire Insurance fund is managed by an independent Board of Trustees but is included in the District’s overall budget. Both individual property replacement taxes and Foreign Fire Insurance were estimated for the 2018 budget using trend analysis.

AMBULANCE and RESCUE FEES Ambulance and Rescue fees represent 8.9% of the 2018 budgeted revenue. The District bills non-residents and the insurance companies of residents for ambulance and rescue services.

Charges for ambulance transport range from $1,250 to $1,450 for residents and from $1,350 to $1,500 for non-residents. The District accepts Medicare and Medicaid allowances. Charges for rescue services are based on statutory rates for non-residents. Fees were projected based on trend analysis for the 2018 budget. Fees are not assumed to increase in 2018 and payer mix (Private pay, Medicare, Medicaid, etc.) is assumed to remain stable.

DISPATCH and COMMUNICATION SERVICES REVENUE Dispatch and Communication services revenue includes revenue from dispatch services, tower space leases and alarm service and represents approximately 2.7% of the 2018 budgeted revenue.

Currently, the District provides dispatching services for Blue Island, Calumet City, Country Club Hills, Lemont, and Oak Forest. The contracts for dispatching calls for other fire departments are structured so each department pays their fair share of dispatch costs. Dispatch service fees are budgeted based on estimated costs per call to the other fire departments.

The District also provides alarm services for Tyco and leases tower space to several cell phone companies.

Tower lease revenue is budgeted based on existing contracts. For the purposes of the 2018 budget, it is assumed the District will not receive any fees from Tyco in 2018.

FIRE PREVENTION FEES Fire Prevention fees include inspection, re-inspection and false alarm fees. Fees are projected based on trend analysis for the 2018 budget.

GRANT REVENUE In August 2017, the District entered into a Sub-Grant Agreement in the amount of $695,680 with Cook County, Illinois to offer training programs that address high priority preparedness gaps across all core capabilities where a nexus to terrorism exists. Cook County receives the grant funding through Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) which originated from the United States Department of Homeland Security/Office of Domestic Preparedness (DHS). It is anticipated that this grant will receive another sub-grant in 2018 in the amount of $931,000. (District/Department comparable information is included in the Appendix.)

GEOGRAPHY The District covers thirty square miles encompassing the bulk of the Village of Orland Park, the Village of Orland Hills, and some unincorporated areas of Orland Township. The District is in Northeastern Illinois and in Southwest Cook County and is approximately 25 miles southwest of Chicago. It is bordered by Palos Park to the north, Palos Heights and Oak Forest to the east, Tinley Park and Mokena to the south, and Homer Glen to the west. The area lies on a natural continental divide that separates the Mississippi river watershed and the Atlantic Ocean watershed. The area was formed by a glacier and is made up of rolling hills, grasslands, the wetlands, and many waterbodies. The water bodies include four large lakes, Lake Sedgewick and McGinnis Slough in Orland Park and Lake Ashburn and Lake Lorin in Orland Hills.

There are also six tributary creek headwaters within the boundaries, Long Run Creek, Marley Creek, Midlothian Creek, Mill Creek, Spring Creek and Tinley Creek. Orland Park has over 600 acres of park space including sixty parks, one hundred and forty athletic fields and courts, thirty miles of trails, and three hundred acres of open space. The largest area of park space is Centennial Park. At 192 acres, Centennial Park has multiple athletic fields, an aquatic center, a boat launch for Lake Sedgewick, and a dog park. Orland Hills has 60 acres of park space. Adjacent to the District is also over fifteen thousand acres of Cook County Forest Preserve land and large lakes.

TOPOGRAPHY Mostly flat with a few rolling hills, Orlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s elevation is listed as 686-706 ft. above sea level. In the Village of Orland Park, water represents .28 sq. miles (1.31%) and there are over 300 bodies of water in Orland.

CLIMATE The Orland Area is classified as Humid Continental with hot summers and year-round precipitation on the Koppen climate classification system.

Largely, it is a temperate climate that experiences all four seasons, including cold snowy winters, wet mild springs, hot humid summers, and mild falls. The area can see a wide range of temperatures and weather events. The overall average temperature is 59 degrees with an average high of 84 degrees in July and an average low of 16 degrees in January.

The Highest recorded temperature was 107 degrees set in 1934, with the lowest recorded temperature of -25 degrees set in 1985. In July of 1995 the Orland and the surrounding Chicagoland area experienced the deadliest heat wave in history. Over a four-day span, the area had record setting temperatures of 106 degrees and high humidity, which combined to cause over 700 deaths in Chicagoland. Precipitation can also vary widely depending on the season. Overall the average total precipitation for the year is 39 inches. May and June, see the most rain, with both months averaging about 4 inches of rain. May is also the beginning of storm season. The bulk of the area’s thunderstorms occur in the warm season between May and October. June has the highest average of thunderstorms, with seven, followed by July and August with six each.

June is also the month that most likely will experience a tornado or major wind disturbance. Though two thirds of tornadoes occur between the months of March and June, they can occur at any time with one of the earliest to occur in January of 2008 and the latest in November 2015.

Flooding is the single most damaging weather threat for the area. Illinois has spent an average of 257 million annually on flood damage since 1983, which is the third highest in the country. In 1996, a record rainfall of 16.9 inches in Northern Illinois over a two-day period led to the flooding of a substantial portion of the Orland area and necessitated in the evacuation of 128 homes including 26 rescues.

In the winter, the Orland area can see up to 31 inches of snow. January has the highest average of snow fall of 12.6 inches. Blizzards, while not yearly are not uncommon either. The worst on record was the blizzard of 1967. Over a two-day span in January the area saw 23 inches of snow fall at a rate of almost two inches an hour. The latest blizzard which also combined with extreme low temperatures and high winds in 2011, dumped 19 inches of snow onto Orland. This combination led to power outages and school and business closures for three days after the blizzard. Along with snowfall, winters can also bring sleet, hail, and ice storms. These weather conditions can lead to any number of emergencies including, traffic accidents, street closures, power outages, and a marked increase in medical calls.

To project calls for service within the District, it is necessary to define the relationship of population to calls for service that are generated. A correlation can be established. This means that more people will mean more calls for service. Population has a direct correlation to risk. The District has a correlation rate of .1426 calls for service in relationship to population served. This means that 85.74 % of the variation in calls for service may be explained by the changes in the population. High density population areas increase the risk associated with that service area. The more people in a service area, the more incidents are generated. Density is increasing in Orland, as recent developments include clusters of multi-family units in 5-6 story arrangements or “attached dwelling” row house/townhouse complexes appear to be the Village of Orland Park’s plan for future development in the remaining 15%+ open space.

The overall population is a good indication of the number of calls for service that can be expected from the Fire District. The number of calls per capita (calls per year per resident) continues to increase.

In 2000, the rate was .11752 per person or just under 12 calls per 100 residents. By 2017, this rate .15080 or 15 calls per 100 residents; an increase of 25% without the population increase. The overall calls for service increased by 46.29% in the same period. This combination of increased population and increased service demand per capita increases workload within the District dramatically.

SCHOOLS The Orland Fire Protection District provides service and care to a total of 19 schools scattered throughout the District. With schools ranging from preschools to collegiate facilities, it is the goal of the District to provide a safe learning environment that encompasses fire and life safety to students and faculty. Activities such as Fire Drills, Adopt-A-Firefighter, and Public Education Events are vital to ensuring that the children of the community learn the concepts of Fire Safety while also establishing trust and rapport with the District’s Firefighters.

Inspections of the schools are also a valuable tool the District uses to make sure the District’s schools remain as safe as can be. Pre-plans done by on-shift companies allow the District’s crews to have a better understanding of the layout, exits, and hazards, so that they are better prepared if an emergency does ensue. Inspections done by the District’s Fire Prevention Bureau help to oversee that fire codes are met and kept up to date with both existing structures and any new construction or remodeling. Sprinkler systems, fire extinguishers, exit paths/doors are all examples of safety features that the bureau makes sure to be in good working condition. Schools within the Orland Fire District are 100% sprinkled now (after retrofitting).

The Orland area is serviced by three elementary Grade School Districts. o o o

SD 135 SD 146 SD 140

The largest of the three is the Orland School District 135.SD 135 has ten schools and serves 4,958 students ranging from Pre-K through eighth grade.

Community Consolidated School District 146 and Kirby School District 140 also serve the Orland area, and each have only one school within the boundaries.

The Kruse Education Center is part of SD 146, has 310 students in grades ranging from Kindergarten through fifth grade. Fernway Middle School is a part of SD 140, has 416 students in grades ranging from Kindergarten through fifth grade.

High school education is provided by Consolidated District 230. SD 230 is made up of three high schools none of which are in the borders of Orland Fire. Orland Fire, however, does respond as auto/mutual aid for emergencies to two of the schools, Carl Sandburg High School and Andrew High School. Over five thousand Orland township residents attend these two schools. Both High Schools are just over the District’s borders.

Private education is also an important aspect of the education system. There are three religious grade schools, St. Michael’s School in Orland Park, and Christian Hills and Cardinal Joseph Bernadine School in

Orland Hills. Each school offers Pre-K through eighth grade. There are many other private schools in the boundaries. Most of the private schools of pre-K and Kindergarten education only and have anywhere from 40-175 students each.

Orland Park has two University sites, Robert Morris University and St. Xavier University. Both sites are smaller secondary campuses. However only Robert Morris University is within the Orland Fire boundaries. St. Xavier is protected by the Mokena Fire Protection District with Orland Fire providing mutual aid response.

TRANSPORTATION Two of the most significant infrastructure issues for the District are water and roads. Access to the scene of an emergency and water supply to fight fires are essential to providing service. In the developing areas, the District (through the Fire Prevention Bureau) expend a great deal of effort to insure the Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s voices are heard to the Village Planning Departments (the AHJ) and that both are provided during construction and after occupancy.

The street network is the backbone of an emergency response system. Orland Fire has more than 362 miles of surface streets. The network must be both efficient and effective to maximize emergency response. The best-case scenario is a network with direct routes and multiple points of entry. The District has a mix of good and bad areas with respect to overall traffic circulation, but the street network generally works well. Lack of efficient circulation within a community can have serious degradation of the ability of the District to provide an effective rapid response. An area of concern is the future build out of the undeveloped areas.

Missing streets or one-way in configurations as well as smaller, restricted non-straight streets already adversely affect response. One area example is the Crystal Tree Golf Course subdivision that only has 1 way in off 143rd Street. This places the entire subdivision outside of the 4-minute travel area for both Station #3 and Station #1. Additionally, the brand-new reconstruction of LaGrange Rd (Rt. 45) has planted medians for the entire 6 miles stretch through the District, and now new construction on 159th St from LaGrange Rd to I-355 will be the same.

Some traffic improvement options may reduce response times while others slow the negative impacts.

Increased traffic decreases response performance and increases the potential for accidents. In some traffic situations, like roads with raised/planted center medians, units must wait for traffic to clear â&#x20AC;&#x201C; although the use of Emergency Vehicle Preemptive devices (Opticom) throughout the District has greatly improved this problem. Nearly 100% of signaled intersections in the District are controlled by Opticom systems.

Increases in traffic can become a significant negative factor and the District sees a dramatic increase in November and December as Orland Park is a large retail destination with one of the remaining indoor shopping malls â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Orland Square.

The transportation network within the District is composed of roads, railways (Metra), and bus routes (Pace). Being located just 25 miles southwest of Chicago, Orland Park is close to several interstate highways. I-80 being the southern border of the town, is a busy interstate as it serves as the east-the west coast connector for the country. Other major highways that are close to the District and frequently used by its commuters are I-57 to the east and I-355 to the west. Traffic counts from 2013 show a daily volume of 38,000+ vehicles on LaGrange Rd (Major North/South throughway) and 34,000+ on 159th St (Major East/West throughway) for a combined total of 72,000+ vehicle crossing that intersection per day with an estimated increase by 2040 to nearly 100,000 vehicles per day. The Stevenson Expressway (I-55) is a quick 15 minutes north via LaGrange Road (U.S. Route 45), which is the

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

41

main thoroughfare through the heart of Orland Park. The Veterans Memorial Tollway/I-355, completed in 2007, is accessible just west of Orland Park connecting to the western suburbs. This thoroughfare has opened new potential for the Village as a residential option for the many people employed in the suburbs along this corridor and as a travel destination for those looking for entertainment and activity options. Interstate 80 borders the southern end of Orland Park and provides connections to numerous roads and interstates.

Orland Park has three stops on Metra's Southwest Service, which provides the weekday and weekend rail service between Manhattan, Illinois, and Chicago Union Station from: 143rd Street, 153rd Street, and 179th Street. As of January 29, 2017, the last time Metra revised the timetable, the Southwest Service has fifteen round-trips per day on weekdays and three on Saturday. There is no Sunday service.

All Saturday trains run through to Manhattan. Of the weekday trains, one terminates at Orland Park 153rd Street, three at Manhattan, and the remainder at Orland Park 179th Street.

There are 30 METRA passenger trains with 226 cars total traveling daily in/out of Chicago stopping at these 3 stops with an average of 220,000 riders per month.

Freight train traffic has been reduced lately on this line due to new routing; however, there are still a number that travel through the District daily and that number is variable with no confirmation yet from the railway.

Commuters looking for an alternative to driving board Metra Southwest Service trains at three stations in the area for a convenient trip to Chicago’s Loop. The Main Street Triangle District, a planned downtown development at 143rd Street along Southwest Highway and LaGrange Road, includes a new $3 million commuter train station and ample parking. Additional trains on the Rock Island Line are available at stops in nearby Tinley Park and Mokena.

The improved Pace Suburban Bus Service operates three routes in Orland Park, one of which ends at the Midway Airport Station, where it connects with CTA Southwest Orange Line “L” trains to downtown Chicago. In addition, Pace works with the Village to offer Dial-a-Ride service for residents in Orland Park and Orland Hills. This service is especially useful for disabled riders and senior citizens.

Commercial air transportation is readily available for travelers, as Orland Park is situated just 25 minutes from Chicago’s Midway International Airport and 40 minutes from O’Hare International Airport.

WATER DISTRIBUTION A Fire District relies extensively on a reliable water supply to minimize the damage caused by fire.

The outstanding water systems in the Orland Fire District are maintained and serviced from the Village of Orland Park and American Water for the Orland Hills and unincorporated Orland areas. There are 2 small pockets of no-hydrant areas.

In 2017, ISO reviewed many categories within the Orland Fire Protection District, with water supply being one of them. ISO reports that forty percent of a community’s overall score is based on the adequacy of the water supply system. While scoring the District’s water supply systems, the ISO field representative evaluated: 

The capability of the water distribution system to meet the needed fire flows at selected locations up to 3500 gpm



Size, type, and installation of fire hydrants



Inspection and flow testing of fire hydrants

After ISO’s review, the District received an earned credit score of 37.78 out of 40. The break-down of the total is as follows: 

Credit for supply system –

29.97 out of 30



Credit for hydrants –

Orland Fire Protection District Business Distribution by Type It is evident from the business data provided above that the District protects a significant percentage of commercial and industrial businesses that support the local, state, and global economy.

To explore a community's future risk, an assessment has been developed based on potential land use within its anticipated future boundaries.

These potential uses are found in each Village's development plans and zoning designations.

The zoning map translates land use (potential scale and type of development within geographic sub-areas) to categories of relative fire and life risk.

Other Growth Opportunities

MERGER and CONSOLIDATIONS The Orland Fire District has a few growth opportunities especially regarding consolidation and merger potential with some neighboring fire protection districts. This will entail much discussion and detailed cost/benefit ratio analysis. However, these type or arrangements, either functional or full consolidation merit a thorough review and deliberations as a cost-effective force multiplier reducing redundant expenses.

COMMUNITY RISK REDUCTION FIRE PREVENTION BUREAU Mission Statement It is the mission of the Fire Prevention Bureau (FPB) to educate the community about the benefits of proper safety practices and to identify and eliminate hazardous conditions which pose a threat to life, property and the environment.

The Fire Prevention Bureau protects people by eliminating potential emergency situations before they occur. The District use the term “pro-active firefighting” to describe how the District analyzes new building plans to anticipate potential life-safety issues. The District also use this term to describe how the District look for potential life-safety hazards while doing the District’s annual inspections and bring them to the property owner’s attention. The District’s public education programs are designed to address current lifesafety issues that the District sees occurring within the Fire District. Ultimately, the goal of the Fire Prevention Bureau is to keep emergencies from occurring; thus, keeping people out of harm’s way.

The purpose of the FPB is to prevent injuries, deaths, business interruption and property damage resulting from fire and other threats to life. The District believe that Fire Prevention plays a crucial role in making the District’s community safer. Inspection, enforcement and public education work together to not only identify and correct safety issues, but also to help change people’s attitude toward safety.

Through the diligence and challenging work of the members of the Orland Fire District’s Fire Prevention Bureau, the District have been able to achieve the District’s annual goals. The future will bring greater challenges as the District sets loftier goals to ensure the safety of the public and the District’s Firefighters.

For the period 2012-2017, the FPB has logged 26,397 life safety inspections and other events.

COMMUNITY RISK REDUCTION (CRR) PROGRAMS COMMUNITY C.A.R.E. PROGRAM The Orland Fire Protection District Community CARE program is dedicated to the proposition that when it comes down to those precious minutes following sudden cardiac arrest, planning saves lives. There is a 90% survival rate for victims of sudden cardiac arrest with effective CPR and ready access to an automated external defibrillator (AED). CARE’s primary mission is two-fold: (1) to increase the number of people trained in CPR and the use of an AED and (2) to increase the availability of Public Access to Defibrillators (PADs). Furthermore, the program aims to create a monitoring/maintenance program ensuring CPR skills remain current and defibrillator batteries and pads remain operational. Community CARE is modeled from a successful Seattle, Washington, program boasting a near 50% survival rate in reducing fatalities from cardiac arrest. The Orland Fire Protection District provides FREE CPR training courses every other month or so and monthly classes accredited for healthcare providers. Information on both courses is detailed on the District’s website.

SENIOR ADVISORY COUNCIL The Orland Fire Protection District Senior Advisory Council (SAC) serves as a bridge between the District’s officials and the large senior population in the District in communicating health and safety concerns. SAC both communicates to seniors and brings information from seniors to the leadership of the District. The goal is to preserve life and property for seniors within the District.

The Orland Fire Protection District established the Senior Advisory Board (SAC) in 2009. SAC’s main purpose is to “identify and address specific needs of the senior residents of the District’s District” with respect to health and safety. In general, advisory boards may perform the following tasks:  Studying of issues  Performing independent research  Participate in District activities  Educate seniors about health and safety issues recommended by staff and District  Analyzing the impact of policies on the senior population within the District  Make recommendations to the Board of Trustees based on thoughtful and unbiased discussions From a senior perspective

CADET PROGRAM The District’s Cadet Program helps individuals between the ages of 16-21 who have an interest in a Fire Service or Emergency Medical Services career. Cadets will be taught firefighting skills and knowledge based on the current Illinois OSFM standards for Basic Operations Firefighter through both online course work and hands-on practical training on Saturday mornings according to the program schedule.

Program Goals:    

RESIDENTIAL KNOX BOX PROGRAM The Residential Knox Box Program helps the Orland Fire Protection District loan out boxes to the elderly with medical call buttons and who have medical conditions that limit their mobility. The District also loans these boxes out to people who have debilitating medical conditions (such as multiple sclerosis, etc.) regardless of age.

People who want a box are required to fill out an application, a medical history form and must provide a key for their residence. (This key is locked in the Knox Box.) Currently, the District notes any hazards in the residence, such as oxygen tanks and places this information in the dispatch system as a “caution note.” Family members usually install the Knox Box on the residence door, Fire Prevention Bureau personnel will install them, if requested. This program has been very successful and is a great service that the District provides to residents. The District is planning to increase the size of the program with the purchase of 20 more boxes and an increased advertising effort via the website and this community outreach program utilizing several senior citizen and community organizations.

CAR SEAT CHECKS The Orland Fire Protection District installs and checks car seat installations for District residents by appointment. The District has three certified personnel to assist with the installation of car seats.

Personnel are also available to do car seat inspections if the seat is already installed.

C.E.R.T (Community Emergency Response Team) The Orland Fire District is hosting a new CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) class tentatively starting Monday, September 11th, 2017. The classes will be held 8 consecutive Monday evenings from 6:30 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. each evening. The classes are held at the Orland Fire District Administration building located at 9790 W. 15st Street. The class is limited to residents of the Orland Fire District and the minimum age to participate is 18 years of age. The CERT graduate classes currently have 42 active community members. The District are looking to add additional volunteers to assist the Orland Fire District during emergencies such as disasters and weather-related emergencies. This is a way that the District’s residents can give back to the community. Experience is not necessary, and the District will provide you with the training needed to become an Orland CERT team member. Some of the training provided includes: The ability to safely extinguish fires in the event of an emergency, First Aid, CPR, bleeding control, assist your family and neighbors in the event of an emergency, organize and operate search and rescue duties in your neighborhood, coordinate and work with other First Responders during community emergencies.

SENIOR CITIZEN SMOKE DETECTOR REPLACEMENT PROGRAM In conjunction with Local 2754, the members annually replace smoke detector and/or batteries, to any resident in need.

DISPATCH / COMMUNICATIONS The Orland Fire Protection District operates a fire service only communications/dispatch center providing emergency medical, fire, and rescue dispatching service to the community it serves. These services are also being provided as a contracted service to the cities/Districts of Blue Island, Calumet City, Country Club Hills, Lemont, and Oak Forest.

This allows the Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s center to dispatch the closest vehicle to an emergency improving response times for the residents.

In 2013-2017, emergency communications dispatchers for Orland processed 118,754 alarm incidents for the center. Orland Central Dispatch was the primary dispatch center for three Mutual Aid Box Alarm System (MABAS) Divisions (19, 22, and 24) covering much of the South and Southwest suburban area. At the time these Southland communities request assistance for incidents beyond their resource capabilities, communications are passed on to Orland Central and the alerts and requests for mutual aid to that agency along with incident communications are through Orland Central. In the period 2013-2017, Orland Central handled 663 box alarm requests through the MABAS system for these three divisions. Orland Central is the back-up to the primary statewide MABAS Communication System operated out of RED Center in Northbrook. Activation for assets and specialty equipment/teams is done through these two centers in the event of a large incident or disaster in the State or those surrounding Illinois. Orland Central is also the back-up dispatch center for the Chicago Fire Department Englewood (South) Fire Alarm Office. Orland Fire employs a Communications Director, 11 full-time and 4 part-time dispatchers that operate the dispatch center with three staffed positions 24 hours a day. Orland Central conducts monthly training and continuing education for all dispatchers. Dispatchers participate in department drills as well as drills with RED center on deploying resources during natural disasters. Dispatchers are also encouraged to attend classes given by APCO and MABAS.

The Support Service Bureau provides behind the scenes services that are essential to effective Fire, EMS, and Rescue Operations. Serving the community is the privilege of every Orland Fire Protection District employee, not only those responding to fires, EMS calls or other emergencies, but also those people behind the scenes repairing the District’s facilities and fire apparatus, in addition to performing other essential functions. In the end, every Orland Fire Protection District employee fulfills a vital role that allows the District’s organization to help others in times of need. Helping others is truly the District’s privilege.

Fleet Repair and Maintenance – The District employs two ASE certified technicians and maintains approximately 60 pieces of equipment. All the District fire apparatus, ambulances, and support vehicles are serviced at regular intervals in addition to required repairs.

The District vehicles are extremely well maintained which is imperative given the need for 100% reliability and the severe duty associated with emergency response.

FACILITIES/GENERAL REPAIRS The District employs 1 full-time and 2 part-time building maintenance technicians with extensive backgrounds in HVAC, plumbing, electrical and building maintenance systems. Most repairs are handled in house which allows us to address issues in a prompt, efficient manner which keeps costs down and minimizes any impact to operations.

SCBA/SMALL TOOLS/SUPPLIES Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) – are worn by Firefighters to protect them from inhaling toxic and super-heated gases found in fires and hazardous environments. Compressed air is stored at a pressure of 4500 psi in cylinders worn on each Firefighter’s back like a backpack. Due to the extreme pressure and exposure to hostile environments this equipment must be thoroughly tested and maintained. The District practices a regimented routine of daily, weekly and annual testing, maintenance and repair of each SCBA. The District utilizes thousands of various pieces of equipment used for anything from vehicle extrication to thermal imaging cameras used to find victims in smoke filled, zero visibility environments. This equipment must also be extremely well maintained and kept in a constant state of readiness so that it can be reliably deployed in any emergency.

Each the District fire engine carries nearly 3000 feet of various diameter fire hose. These hoses are designed to operate at pressures ranging from 80 psi to as high as 250 psi. Each length of hose is tested annually to NFPA standards and repaired in house by trained the District personnel.

The District Support Service maintains an inventory of basic cleaning supplies and paper goods which are distributed to all facilities on a per order basis.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES (EMS) Orland Fire District has over 115 Paramedics (100% crossed trained as Firefighter/Paramedics) that maintain certifications in various medical disciplines that exceed the Illinois Department of Public Health requirements. This Division is overseen by a Day Lieutenant with a support staff of “7G” part time staff and adjunct instructors.

Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) is also a function monitored through committee and a crucial tool for delivering the highest level of EMS care and service.

Orland Fire belongs to REGION VII EMS. Silver Cross EMS System serves as the District’s Medical Resource and Project Medical Director.

Some of the additional certifications and descriptions maintained by ALL PARAMEDICS are: 

 

Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) training focuses on the treatment of cardiac arrest, stroke and other life-threatening medical emergencies, as well as the skills to deploy advanced interventions.

Pre-Hospital Trauma Life Support (PHTLS) is recognized globally as the leading educational program for prehospital emergency trauma care.

Pediatric Education for Pre-Hospital Professionals (PEPP) provides comprehensive instruction for the emergency care of infants and children.

EMS training is conducted utilizing the District’s state-of-the-art $ 200,000 Simulation Lab. Every type of stressful and difficult medical or traumatic situation can be recreated through simulation. Skills and abilities are built, and knowledge gained through this hands-on teaching and learning environment.

Orland’s highly-trained medical personnel respond in advanced life support (ALS) ambulances and ALS fire apparatus. When you call for help, the closest available ambulance and fire apparatus are dispatched simultaneously, which ensures help is arriving as soon as possible. At least 5 Paramedic/Firefighters are dispatched to EVERY EMS INCIDENT!

technologies are cardiac monitors that can transmit your 12 Lead ECG to the hospital, so the appropriate care may be assembled prior to your arrival there. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), commonly used to treat sleep apnea, is utilized pre-hospital for the treatment of acute respiratory failure and may preclude the need for the patient to be intubated and placed on a ventilator.

Other advanced technologies include video laryngoscopes and Intra-osseous drills that save time when seconds count and life is in the balance. Power-assisted cots and ergonomically-designed stair chairs make patient movement and transition of care less stressful for the patient, while providing a measure of safety for the Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personnel.

Chain of Survival What the District know for certain is that successful treatment of cardiac arrest and particularly VF is associated with quick delivery of care. The chain of survival with its 5 links of early 9-1-1 access, early CPR, early defibrillation, early advanced care and early post resuscitative care illustrates the most critical elements of addressing sudden cardiac arrest.

FIRE SUPPRESSION The District responds to diverse types of fires and other service requests, including EMS and RESCUE/SPECIAL OPERATIONS (HazMat, Technical Rescue, and Dive Rescue). The fires include, but are not limited to: single family structures, multi-family structures, commercial buildings, strip malls, high-rise occupancies, industrial facilities, vehicle fires, brush fires and dumpster fires.

Within these categories, the District strives to provide a standard of coverage that is unique to the structure, depending on criteria such as construction type, risk factors, response times, occupancy type, known hazards, and many others.

To adequately provide coverage for the many types of fires and scenarios that can arise, the Orland Fire Protection District provides a minimum of 29 on-duty Firefighters each shift. These on-duty personnel are on duty for 24 hours at a time and are stationed among the District’s 6 strategically-placed Fire Stations. Within these 6 stations, and in addition to the frontline rigs, reserve apparatus is also placed throughout the District to supplement the line as they go out-of-service due to maintenance and/or repairs or call back situations. Additionally, there are specialty Ambulances (Hazmat S3, Dive S5, TRT2, and Brush1/Gator2 for brush fires) that are crossstaffed, if needed. All frontline dedicated companies are Advanced Life Support – Paramedic equipped.

Expanding on the District’s frontline apparatus, each engine in the District is equipped with the necessary equipment used to carry out an assortment of tasks. Each Type 1 engine has a tank that holds 750 gallons of water with a 1500 GMP pump capacity. The engines carry a variety of hose used for both supply and attack lines, as well as a basic compliment of other tools and equipment. Two ladder trucks, one being a tower ladder and the other being a straight stick, are utilized within the District. The primary task of these trucks is for rescue and removal of civilians, roof and window access, forcible entry, search and rescue, and heavy extrication. Both trucks have a 105’ aerial l adder that can be used to access windows or roofs which the District’s ground ladders cannot reach. Along with the rigs main ladders, these trucks carry a compliment of ground ladders, hand tools, power tools, saws and extrication equipment. All front-line ambulances, which are discussed further in the EMS section, are also equipped with two SCBA air packs and hand tools so that the District’s Firefighters assigned to ambulances can also assist in fire related incidents.

MABAS MABAS stands for Mutual Aid Box Alarm System.

The Orland Fire Protection District provides mutual aid to and receives mutual aid from other fire departments. Mutual aid received is noted in other areas of this report. Along with handling incidents within Orland jurisdiction, the Orland Fire Protection District is regularly requested to assist surrounding agencies with their incidents. The request may be to cover a fire station for subsequent incidents or to assist with personnel and equipment on the scene. A single incident can be taxing to the resources of any fire department which has resulted in mutual aid agreements prearranging the assistance prior to an incident and specifying who responds with what personnel, apparatus and equipment. The Orland Fire Protection District is a member of MABAS Division 19 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one of twelve fire agencies. Frankfort, Homer Township, Lemont, Lockport Township, Manhattan, Mokena, New Lenox, East Joliet, Palos, Palos Heights, and Peotone Fire Districts comprise the remainder of MABAS 19.

MABAS-IL MABAS Mission Statement MABAS-Illinois serves local fire agencies, MABAS Divisions, State of Illinois departments, and Cook County UASI-DHSEM by providing a systems-based resource allocation and distribution network of robust traditional and nontraditional fire-EMS-rescue and special operations teams for emergency and sustained response within and outside of the State of Illinois. Accomplishment of the services requires cooperation, standardization, reliability, partnering, brokering and ongoing communication and compliance with customer specification and expectations. Customer trust and reliance on the MABAS system is built upon personal relationships, credibility, and ongoing customer support.

MABAS Purpose Statement The Mutual Aid Box Alarm System (MABAS) provides emergency rapid response and sustained operations when a jurisdiction or region is stricken by an overwhelming event generated by manmade, technological, or environmental threats. In response, MABAS will mobilize and, deploy a sustained fire, emergency medical services (EMS), hazardous materials, technical rescue, water rescue, urban search and rescue, and incident management assistance team resources to prevent loss of life, human suffering and further damage to property.

MABAS is a statewide mutual aid system, which has been in existence since the late 1960s. Pre September 11th, MABAS was heavily rooted throughout northern Illinois. Since September 11th, MABAS has rapidly grown throughout the State of Illinois as well as Wisconsin, Indiana and Michigan and parts of Iowa and Missouri. Day-to-day MABAS extra alarms are systematically designed to provide speed of response of emergency resources to the stricken community during an ongoing emergency. Declarations of Disaster provide a MABAS sustained system of response on top of daily mutual aid activations. Today MABAS includes approximately 1,175 of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1,246 fire departments organized within 69 divisions. MABAS divisions geographically span an area from Lake Michigan to Iowa's border and south almost into Kentucky. Wisconsin divisions also share MABAS with their Illinois counterparts. The cities of Chicago, St. Louis, and Milwaukee are also MABAS member agencies. MABAS has expanded into all 102 Illinois counties.

MABAS includes approximately 38,000 of Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 40,000 Firefighters who staff emergency response units including more than 1,600 fire stations, 2,735 engine companies, 500 ladder trucks, 1,300 ambulances (many Paramedic capable), 250 heavy rescue squads, and 1,000 water tenders. Fire/EMS reserve (back-up) units account for more than 1,000 additional emergency vehicles.

MABAS also offers specialized operations teams for hazardous materials (40 teams), underwater rescue/recovery (15 teams), technical rescue (39 teams) and a state sponsored urban search and rescue team. An additional element of resource are the certified fire investigators, Incident Management Team COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

members and fleet support mechanics which can be "packaged" as mobile support teams aid with larger scale incidents requiring complicated and time-consuming efforts beyond capabilities of most agencies.

MABAS is a unique organization in that every MABAS participant agency has signed the same contract with their 1,100 plus counterpart MABAS agencies. As a MABAS agency, you agree to: standards of operation, incident command, minimal equipment staffing, fire ground safety and on-scene terminology. MABAS agencies, regardless of their geopolitical origin, work together seamlessly on any emergency scene. All MABAS agencies operate on a common radio frequency (IFERN) and are activated for response through pre-designed "run" cards each participating agency designs and tailors to meet their local risk need. MABAS also provides mutual aid station coverage to a stricken community when their fire/EMS resources are committed to an incident for an extended period.

MABAS extra alarms are commanded by the stricken community and dispatch control is handled through the stricken communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s MABAS division dispatch center.

Over 800 MABAS locally controlled extra alarm incidents occur annually throughout the 69 divisions of Illinois MABAS. Existing Illinois statute regarding a Declaration of Disaster allows the Governor to mobilize state assets under the direction of IEMA. Through a memorandum of understanding between IEMA and MABAS, fire, EMS and special operations resources can be activated as a State of Illinois asset when a Declaration of Disaster is initiated. Activation of the Statewide Plan through IEMA is designed to provide quantity of response for sustaining incident operations.

MABAS also provides various specialty equipment and apparatus staged strategically throughout the State available to any MABAS Department upon request.

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS The Orland Fire Protection District’s Hazardous Materials Team (HazMat) consists of 21 trained Firefighters who are responsible for investigations involving hazardous materials calls. All Fire District Firefighters are trained to respond to these calls at the HazMat Op’s level, however; members of the HazMat Team are trained to a technician level as set by state and federal standard. This team works in conjunction with federal, state, and local agencies including USEPA, Illinois EPA, Illinois Emergency Management Agency, Metropolitan Water Reclamation District, Cook County Sheriffs Police Bomb Ambulance, and local Public Works to properly handle the special needs of this type of call.

The District conducts training with local rail road and pipeline companies to ensure that all members have hands on experience. This training uses props to ensure a proper response to leaks, spills, and fires of hazardous materials. Many members have also participated in federal training programs offered locally and around the country.

The Orland Fire Protection District is a part of MABAS 19 and is supplied with more skilled equipment and technicians in case of complicated hazardous materials calls. Nine of the Fire District’s Hazardous Material Team members are also members of the South West Hazardous Materials Response Team, MABAS 22.

The Hazardous Materials Division prepares responders on equipment, best practices and new hazards.

From Carbon Monoxide calls to leaking tankers, the HazMat Division prepares the members of the department to identify and initiate the correct response. The District continue to improve the equipment and provide 12 hours of continuing education to all responders.

Hazardous Material Operations level responses that occur frequently and are usually handled by the first in Fire Company which do not need a full team response include: elevated Carbon Monoxide levels, natural gas leaks, fuel and chemical spills, odor investigations, etc.

RESCUE (SPECIAL OPERATIONS) TECHNICAL RESCUE TEAM (TRT) The Orland Fire Protect District’s Technical Rescue Team (TRT) specializes in confined space, trench, high angle, and structural collapse rescue. The Fire District’s team has been identified as the confined space rescue team for the Village of Orland Park while their Public Works department perform maintenance on their equipment. The team and its members have responded to numerous technical rescue incident since its inception in 1993. Some of the more notable incidents the team has responded to are the Spirit of New Orleans train crash, Microburst in Frankfort IL, and the tornado in Utica IL. These members of the team train approximately 55 hours annually.

This is in addition to their annual firefighting and EMS training. Each member of the team is tested cognitively and practically each year and participates in a deployment exercise every three to four years.

During this exercise the team deploys to Champaign IL and works in concert with other rescue teams from around the state. This exercise is a natural disaster scenario. During the exercise rescue operations are conducted around the clock for forty-eight hours. Since this is a simulated natural disaster the conditions are austere. Each team must be self-sufficient and live in tents and eat military rations.

The Orland Fire Protection District is a member of the Combined Agency Response Team (CART). CART responds to rescue incidents with a cache of member owned and CART supplemented equipment to support the efforts of the local technical rescuers.

CART serves 8 northeastern counties in Illinois, including Cook, Will, Grundy, Kendall, Kankakee, DuPage, Kane, and DeKalb totaling a response area of over 1000 square miles.

The District also has seven members who are part of Illinois’ urban search and rescue team. These members have received in depth training through FEMA in emergency medicine, technical search, crane operations, and asset management. The function of Illinois Task Force One (ILTF-1) is to respond to a natural disaster anywhere in the state and be completely self-sufficient. ILTF-1 when deployed, operates twenty-four hours per day and will be in the field for approximately ten days before rotating fresh rescuers to the scene.

DIVE/WATER RESCUE The 30 miles in which is the Orland Fire Protection District has over 300 bodies of water with a depth of more than six feet. The potential for a water related incident is a very real possibility. If someone were to fall through the ice or get caught in a swift water creek due to flooding, the Dive Ambulance has all the training and equipment available to affectively rescue those in distress. This team deploys about six times a year. In case of a more complicated rescue call, The Orland Fire Protection Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dive Ambulance is a part of MABAS 19 and receives more skilled equipment and technicians to help safely handle these special situations.

This event has taken place every 3 years over approximately 15 years. After introductions, the groups are sent to different stations to experience the patient care perspective from the Paramedic responders’ view. They extricated a patient that was pinned under a vehicle, performed confined space rescue, provided an advanced airway to patients trapped in a vehicle, assessed and treated a trauma patient

while being hindered by low light, smoke and noise and extricated a patient’s hand from a meat grinder and machines.

INCIDENT COMMAND TRAINING Since the District’s Command Training Center (CTC) opened in 2009, the District has trained over one thousand incident commanders from around the country.

The CTC uses high-fidelity simulations to train incident commanders in how to manage an incident safely and efficiently. The District continue to develop more simulations, train more incident commanders and provide quality continuing education for current incident commanders.

BLUE CARD INCIDENT COMMAND Trained over 1,000+

TRAINING FACILITIES The goal for the Orland Fire Protection District Regional Training Campus is to provide the District’s people with the most realistic training environment while maintaining a high degree of safety. The District strives to provide the District’s companies with the opportunity to train on all the hazards that might be encountered each day the District respond to emergency incidents. The Orland Fire Protection District utilizes the Illinois State Fire Marshal Certification Program as a guide to develop and deliver the District’s training program. The District’s Training Facility provides a means to maintain the highest level of proficiency in the District’s “All Hazards Response” of service delivery. The Orland Regional Training Facility is continually looking to provide quality training in fire, rescue, emergency medical services, fire prevention and education and specialized rescue. The prop allows us the ability to train on confined space, rope and high angle rescue, hazardous materials and many other scenarios.

HEAVY EXTRICATION CLASS The District is continuously looking for ways to provide high-quality training to all its members and other local emergency responders. A heavy extrication class sponsored by Genesis Rescue Systems was an opportunity for area emergency responders to learn and train on various rescue emergencies. The District and surrounding departments train together in the event there is an event that requires more than one

agency to respond. Orland Regional Training Facility was utilized for one of these training events.

MABAS 19 Light-n-Fight Incident Command Training Quarterly, each of the departments within the District’s Mutual Aid Box Alarm Division 19 (MABAS 19) send one company to the training event. A scenario is developed, and the company respond and work together to mitigate the incident. The ability to bring departments together enhances the District’s interoperability and cohesiveness in the event a real emergency incident happens.

RESPONSE AREA Each of the 6 fire stations in the District are strategically located throughout the 30-mile area to respond to any incident as quickly as possible. The benchmark standard goal by the District is “to respond to requests for ANY emergency assistance 90% of the time in less than 6:20 from initial receipt of call at the District’s Dispatch center to arrival of the first due companies.”

This coincides with NFPA 1710 response standard and is discussed in detail in Section 4 – Deployment and Performance. Fire Stations have “Still Districts” of approximately 4-6 square miles each. However, due to ability to now dispatch the closest available unit via GPS, AVL (Automatic Vehicle Location) and CAD (Computer Aided Dispatch) each station now has a more “dynamic” area of responsibility - or A.O.R. Therefore – each station’s AOR is indicated in the above map and area of coverage per station is listed below. This DISTRIBUTION is also known as equalization.

Stations with less than 70% 4 min drive cover are being evaluated and analyzed for possible improvement solutions. This information and data will be further discussed in Deployment (Section 4).

PLANNING ZONES AND CORRELATING RISKS The District is broken down into 32 separate planning zones. Each of these planning zones are correlated with the closest Fire Station and it’s Area of Responsibilty (AOR) or Still District.

Hazards within each Planning Zone (PZ) are identifed and assessed. Those hazards are discussed in greater detail in the next section 3 – Community Risk Assesment.

These planning zones allow the District to identify, analyze, categorize, and classify the methodology to determine and document the distinct categories and classes of risks within each planning zone.

THREAT - ANALYSIS

Analyzing the THREAT in all categories can be accomplished a few ways. Two of the focus and starting points include the PROBABILITY of an incident occurring and the CONSEQUENCE/IMPACT that may result if this threat were to occur. Location and Occupancies are assessed and classified.

Probability can be determined by analyzing the POTENTIAL of an incident, with HISTORIC DEMAND as a key indicator.

Consequence and Impact can be determined also by potential and historic demand as well as results of prior incidents.

Using a scoring system, such as the two below, allow other measurements to help determine a Risk Score and determination of a TYPE LEVEL – CATEGORY/CLASSIFICATION of Low, Medium, and High. ***Scoring the entire District’s top 4 Occupancies as below for all risk categories places the category determination TYPE class as LOW – MODERATE for the majority of the District.*** HAZARD AND VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT TOOL NATURALLY OCCURRING EVENTS

These assignments then have corresponding critical TASKS that must be assigned and accomplished.

MODERATE type risk level incidents usually involve multiple units/distribution assignments.

HIGH type risk level incidents tend to involve the activation of a large number of resources or Special Operations Teams â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Tactical Rescue, Hazmat, Water/Ice, etc.

Once a TYPE level has been identified/classified, then Critical TASK Assignments are determined to effectively and efficiently mitigate the situation. Additionally, an ERF (Effective Response Force) of the number of personnel necessary to accomplish these tasks is allocated to each of the risk type levels, i.e. “Task Math.”

These TASKS are categorized by LOW, MODERATE, HIGH for All Hazard responses – EMS, FIRE, RESCUE, HAZMAT as well as LOW risk SERVICE/INVESTIGATIONS. High Level Tasks involve Special Ops Teams.

TEAMS - TOOL / TRUCKS [DEPLOYMENT PLAN]

After the critical TASKS are determined and an ERF (Effective Response Force) is established indicating the number of personnel needed to accomplish these tasks, then a Deployment Response Plan is programmed into Dispatch CAD to bring those closest personnel and apparatus/equipment needed using GPS & AVL (Automatic Vehicle Locator). If an alarm were to elevate levels, from a LOW to MODERATE or MODERATE to HIGH, then these plans would escalate automatically or on request.

ALL HAZARD COMMUNITY RISKS One definition of “HAZARD” can be defined as any dangerous condition with the potential to cause harm to people and loss to property. This harm or loss can be a result of fire, medical emergencies, hazardous material release, entrapment or other natural/man made hazards. Orland Fire is the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) and as such is responsible and responds to all those hazard zone emergencies and manages the risks associated with them. “RISK” can also be defined as an “estimate of the probability” of a hazard related incident occurring and the severity of harm or damage that may result.

Risk Assessment is the process of evaluating and identification of potential risks within a community, and the process of assessing and classifying those risks. It is the critical initial step in emergency preparedness, which enables organizations to eventually mitigate (if possible), plan, prepare and deploy appropriate resources to attain a desired outcome. This CRA is a critical step in the process of developing a Standard of Cover (SOC).

This process includes examining the events that may occur within a jurisdiction and projecting the potential impacts of those events on the community. It is the goal of the SOC process to match the deployment of resources with the identified risk in the most effective manner possible. The steps involved include:    

An examination of the nature of the hazard(s) that may exist Identification of the values and property at risk Evaluation of the impact and consequence of an event Consideration of the potential frequency of an event

The District responds to a variety of risks and each type of risk may have different resource needs. In the SOC process, deployment is analyzed from the basis of all-hazard risk. Some risks require a greater deployment of resources than others to achieve an acceptable outcome. Deployment strategies are based on the goal of providing the needed resources to handle the risk. It is quantified by considering how many people must arrive within a specific time frame and resources to mitigate the situation (i.e.

“TASK MATH”).

The methodology includes 4 primary steps: 1.

2.

3.

4.

Identify the risks Assessing the risks Categorizing the risks Classifying the risks

The relationship between probability and consequences are one of the principles used in risk analysis.

This concept is critical to the eventual establishment of risk levels for each area served. As either factor

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

90

increases, it will impact the overall risk. The probability and consequence establish the overall risk factor for any given situation.

To adequately process and plan for various risk in the District, a systemic review of the community is needed. Two primary categories were examined: community risk and service demand.

As with all other communities, the Orland Fire District has potential risks. Such risks can be humancaused (e.g., preventable injuries, fires) or naturally occurring (e.g., from frequently occurring severe the weather to tornados; etc.) Examples of uncommon risks in this area might include earthquakes, domestic terrorism and major hazardous material release. The District has identified and prioritized potential and likely risks, and subsequently prioritized them to include strategies to mitigate these risks.

According to the CPSE, these terms are significant in a Community Risk Assessment: HAZARD – the causes of danger and peril usually caused by: o Human, Material, Mechanical, or Natural events THREAT - the likelihood or probability of injury or harm CONSEQUENCE – the disparate outcome of loss or injury measured by: o Emotional, Economic, or Historic IMPACT - the events drain on resources, deployment, and coverage RISK – the classification type and category degree of danger or peril of injury/loss by: o Classification by program (Fire, EMS, Rescue, Hazmat) o Categorization by degree (Low, Moderate, High)

RISK EXPECTATIONS Each community must identify an accepted level of service. Accepted risk is a relative term that is

determined by considering expected and desired outcomes, availability of resources and cost. The process of establishing what is “right” for the District is a policy decision. It is important to capture the expectations of the community at the start of the process to build the appropriate criteria.

Stakeholder interviews identified the following for economic and cultural risk: Schools and retail bases such as Orland Square Mall. Interruption to the main traffic thoroughfares is also a major concern.

The next step in this examination of risk is to look at the mission and goals established by the organization. The second is to establish performance objectives for each service that is provided. The decisive step is to develop specific performance measures for each service provided in each risk category.

MISSION: “The Orland Fire Protection District is dedicated to protecting life and property while valuing full accountability to each other and those the District serve”

RISK IDENTIFICATION and CLASSIFICATION RISK ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY and CATERGORIZATION Risk assessment includes determining and defining the distinct threats in the community, based on occupancy such as single-family, multi-family, commercial, and other special type structures. Each scenario presents unique problems and requires an appropriate Fire, Rescue or EMS response.

After analysis of these and all other factors, the District had chosen to use these structures size, height, occupancy type, and problem as the basis to classify the potential risks associated. This also ties in perfectly with the “SHOPS” Size-Up portion of Blue Card Incident Command Certification (which all members in Orland are instructed as well as what the District has taught to over 1,000 other Incident Commanders via the District’s Command Training Center throughout the State).

“SHOPS” is a Blue Card Command acronym for a defining a structure’s:

Size, Height, Occupancy, Problem, Strategy.

This also is identified as a risk assessment decision tree in the CPSE Quality Improvement through Accreditation (QITA) manual. Points are scored on a structure's assessment. The structure assessment utilizes a Size, Height, Occupancy, and Problem. This assessment reflects the number of personnel that will be needed to mitigate an incident based from a critical task analysis “Task Math” and impact to the District and Community. The larger, taller, buildings require more personnel to mitigate incidents in these structures. The different occupancies have different community impact and risk considerations.

Utilizing this model, the Orland Fire District is primarily comprised of moderate risk buildings.

The “moderate” risk was also identified in the 2006 Master Plan and the 2011 Staffing studies: “the District contains mostly low to moderate risk properties”. The predominance of higher risk is in Orland’s core, along the Route 45 corridor in the center of the District. The remaining parcels reflect mid-rise, mixed-use, institutional, multi-family, and single-family occupancies.

These classifications have been calculated, quantified and verified in site assessment of the District in those past studies as well currently at the www.FIRECARES.org site with results listed below.

As all hazard – first response agency, the District must assess and plan for more than just fires. For example, EMS is the top response request and rescue and special operations must also be analyzed individually. This CRA/SOC considers these independently.

The size or area of a building is a key factor in assessing risk for fires. Larger more complex structures carry a higher risk due to the time it takes to complete suppression activities within them. They tend to require longer hose lays, more ladders and may require equipment staging areas within the building for working crews.

The height of buildings is also a factor in assessing risk for fires. There is a direct relationship between height and the equipment needed to protect the building. For example, the roof of most three-story buildings cannot be accessed with a 24-foot ladder, the standard on many the District engine companies. A 24-foot ladder can be placed with only one person, while a 35-foot ladder requires two personnel. Buildings three or more stories require an aerial ladder to access the upper floors and roof area.

Processes being performed within a structure can increase the risk factors significantly. If a standard commercial concrete tilt-up building is used as an office or warehouse, the risk is not significant, but if the same building is used as a woodworking shop or printing shop, an explosion potential exists. The same building using copious quantities of flammable liquids or gases would change the risk factors again. Finally, changing the use by adding many people such as in a church or restaurant changes the life hazard and the risk factors of the structure. What is happening in the structure is every bit as important to the overall risk assessment as the size, location and construction of the building.

Built-in fire protection (fire sprinklers, standpipes, etc.) is a major issue with larger structures. Built-in fire protection negates many of the concerns regarding large structures or hazardous processes. In many communities, developers and builders are given “credit” for built-in protection by allowing narrower street, longer cul-de-sacs, larger buildings and/or smaller water mains. This results in the lower risk and cost. While built-in fire protection should significantly reduce the spread of fire, it may not extinguish the fire. Firefighters still need to complete the extinguishment and perform ventilation, overhaul and salvage operations. A large majority of the commercial building in Orland are fully sprinklered.

TARGET HAZARDS/CRITICAL FACILITIES FEMA defines these as: “facilities in either the public or private sector that provide essential products and services to the public, are otherwise necessary to preserve the welfare and quality of life in the community, or fulfill important public safety, emergency response, and/or disaster recovery functions.”

Critical Infrastructure described by DHS/FEMA is discussed later in this chapter.

To conduct an effective target hazard assessment, some key definitions must be understood: Hazards: Known physical features that can ignite and sustain combustion, or existing features (natural or manmade) that have the potential to cause negative impacts to life, property and/or natural resources.

Values: Community assets, including life, property and natural resources Other major target hazards have been identified. These include nursing homes, mid-rise and other buildings (consisting of three floors or greater), all public schools, and locations of hazardous materials sites. This information assisted in determining where best to locate fire suppression and other specialty resources for each planning zone.

A comprehensive review of the service area was completed. Data was gathered from ISO, fire prevention inspection records, GIS list of high rise occupancies, target hazards in CAD, economic revenues from Census, and interviews with the Village and District stakeholders. The information was then reviewed with the Fire Prevention Bureau and information was collected on type of risk found: Need Fire Flow (NFF), Hazardous Material occupancy, Life Safety risk, High Rise, economic risk and other (historical/cultural).

An interesting fact was found concerning needed fire flow and reports given to the District by ISO. Much of the data in these “batch reports” were found to be incorrect – especially regarding the large commercial structures showing “non-sprinklered” by ISO when in fact they are (for example – Home Depot and Walmart!). This finding, and soon to be field correction by ISO, dramatically changes the NFF for the District and potentially could have adversely affected the ISO rating if this was not discovered and challenged.

After a detailed analysis, the District has identified the following as “target hazards/critical facilities”: Schools, Nursing/Assisted Living, Hotels, Malls as well as non-sprinklered structures 4 stories or more are considered high or target hazards. Police and Fire Stations, Communication Systems, Water Treatment facilities are considered “critical” facilities. Fortunately, all these facilities are fully sprinklered and alarmed within the District. The number of Target Hazards per Station Area of Responsibility (AOR) are listed to the right.

There are 16 critical infrastructure sectors whose assets, systems, and networks, whether physical or virtual, are considered so vital to the United States that their incapacitation or destruction would have a debilitating effect on security, national economic security, national public health or safety, or any combination thereof. Presidential Policy Directive 21 (PPD-21): Critical Infrastructure Security and Resilience advances a national policy to strengthen and maintain secure, functioning, and resilient critical infrastructure. This directive supersedes Homeland Security Presidential Directive 7 This entire section below was taken verbatim from the DHS website to better define the 10 of the 16 Critical Infrastructure identified in the Orland Fire District.

Commercial Facilities Sector The Commercial Facilities Sector includes a diverse range of sites that draw large crowds of people for shopping, business, entertainment, or lodging. Facilities within the sector operate on the principle of open public access, meaning that the public can move freely without the deterrent of highly visible security barriers. Most of these facilities are privately owned and operated, with minimal interaction with the federal government and other regulatory entities.

The Commercial Facilities Sector consists of eight subsectors: 

Entertainment and Media (e.g., motion picture studios, broadcast media).



Gaming (e.g., casinos).



Lodging (e.g., hotels, motels, conference centers).



Outdoor Events (e.g., theme and amusement parks, fairs, campgrounds, parades).



Public Assembly (e.g., arenas, stadiums, aquariums, zoos, museums, convention centers).



Real Estate (e.g., office and apartment buildings, condominiums, mixed use facilities, selfstorage).



Retail (e.g., retail centers and districts, shopping malls).



Sports Leagues (e.g., professional sports leagues and federations).

Communications Sector The Communications Sector is an integral component of the U.S. economy, underlying the operations of all businesses, public safety organizations, and government. Presidential Policy Directive 21 identifies the Communications Sector as critical because it provides an “enabling function” across all critical infrastructure sectors. Over the last 25 years, the sector has evolved from predominantly a provider of voice services into a diverse, competitive, and interconnected industry using terrestrial, satellite, and wireless transmission systems. The transmission of these services has become interconnected; satellite, wireless, and wireline providers depend on each other to carry and terminate their traffic and companies routinely share facilities and technology to ensure interoperability.

95

Emergency Services Sector The Emergency Services Sector (ESS) is a community of millions of highlyskilled, trained personnel, along with the physical and cyber resources that provide a wide range of prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery services during both day-to-day operations and incident response. The ESS includes geographically distributed facilities and equipment in both paid and volunteer capacities organized primarily at the federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial levels of government, such as city police departments and fire stations, county sheriff’s offices, Department of Defense police and fire departments, and town public works departments. The ESS also includes private sector resources, such as industrial fire departments, private security organizations, and private emergency medical services providers.

Energy Sector The U.S. energy infrastructure fuels the economy of the 21st century. Without a stable energy supply, health and welfare are threatened, and the U.S. economy cannot function. Presidential Policy Directive 21 identifies the Energy Sector as uniquely critical because it provides an “enabling function” across all critical infrastructure sectors. More than 80 percent of the country's energy infrastructure is owned by the private sector, supplying fuels to the transportation industry, electricity to households and businesses, and other sources of energy that are integral to growth and production across the nation.

The energy infrastructure is divided into three interrelated segments: electricity, oil, and natural gas.

The reliance of virtually all industries on electric power and fuels means that all sectors have some dependence on the Energy Sector. The Energy Sector is aware of its vulnerabilities and is leading a significant voluntary effort to increase its planning and preparedness. Cooperation through industry groups has resulted in substantial information sharing of best practices across the sector. Many sector owners and operators have extensive experience abroad with infrastructure protection and have more recently focused their attention on cybersecurity.

Financial Services Sector The Financial Services Sector represents a vital component of the District’s nation's critical infrastructure. Large-scale power outages, recent natural disasters, and an increase in the number and sophistication of cyberattacks demonstrate the wide range of potential risks facing the sector.

The Financial Services Sector includes thousands of depository institutions, providers of investment products, insurance companies, other credit and financing organizations, and the providers of the critical financial utilities and services that

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

96

support these functions. Financial institutions vary widely in size and presence, ranging from some of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest global companies with thousands of employees and many billions of dollars in assets, to community banks and credit unions with a small number of employees serving individual communities. Whether an individual savings account, financial derivatives, credit extended to a large organization, or investments made to a foreign country, these products allow customers to: 1. Deposit funds and make payments to other parties 2. Provide credit and liquidity to customers 3. Invest funds for both long and short periods 4. Transfer financial risks between customers

Government Facilities Sector The Government Facilities Sector includes a wide variety of buildings, located in the United States and overseas, that are owned or leased by federal, state, local, and tribal governments.

Many government facilities are open to the public for business activities, commercial transactions, or recreational activities while others that are not open to the public contain highly sensitive information, materials, processes, and equipment.

These facilities include general-use office buildings and specialuse military installations, embassies, courthouses, national laboratories, and structures that may house critical equipment, systems, networks, and functions. In addition to physical structures, the sector includes cyber elements that contribute to the protection of sector assets (e.g., access control systems and closed-circuit television systems) as well as individuals who perform essential functions or possess tactical, operational, or strategic knowledge.

The Education Facilities Subsector covers pre-kindergarten through 12th grade schools, institutions of higher education, and business and trade schools. The subsector includes facilities that are owned by both government and private sector entities.

The National Monuments and Icons Subsector encompasses a diverse array of assets, networks, systems, and functions located throughout the United States. Many National Monuments and Icons assets are listed in either the National Register of Historic Places or the List of National Historic Landmarks.

The Election Infrastructure Subsector covers a wide range of physical and electronic assets such as storage facilities, polling places, and centralized vote tabulations locations used to support the election process, and information and communications technology to include voter registration databases, voting machines, and other systems to manage the election process and report and display results on behalf of state and local governments.

97

Healthcare and Public Health Sector The Healthcare and Public Health Sector protects all sectors of the economy from hazards such as terrorism, infectious disease outbreaks, and natural disasters. Because many the sector's assets are privately owned and operated, collaboration and information sharing between the public and private sectors is essential to increasing resilience of the nation's Healthcare and Public Health critical infrastructure. Operating in all U.S. states, territories, and tribal areas, the sector plays a significant role in response and recovery across all other sectors in the event of a natural or manmade disaster. While healthcare tends to be delivered and managed locally, the public health component of the sector, focused primarily on population health, is managed across all levels of government: national, state, regional, local, tribal, and territorial.

The Healthcare and Public Health Sector is highly dependent on fellow sectors for continuity of operations and service delivery, including Communications, Emergency Services, Energy, Food and Agriculture, Information Technology, Transportation Systems, and Water and Wastewater Systems.

Information Technology Sector The Information Technology Sector is central to the nation's security, economy, and public health and safety as businesses, governments, academia, and private citizens are increasingly dependent upon Information Technology Sector functions.

These virtual and distributed functions produce and provide hardware, software, and information technology systems and services, and—in collaboration with the Communications Sector—the Internet. The sector's complex and dynamic environment makes identifying threats and assessing vulnerabilities difficult and requires that these tasks be addressed in a collaborative and creative fashion.

Information Technology Sector functions are operated by a combination of entities—often owners and operators and their respective associations—that maintain and reconstitute the network, including the Internet. Although information technology infrastructure has a certain level of inherent resilience, its interdependent and interconnected structure presents challenges as well as opportunities for coordinating public and private sector preparedness and protection activities.

98

Transportation Systems Sector The Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Transportation are designated as the Co-Sector-Specific Agencies for the Transportation Systems Sector. The nation's transportation system quickly, safely, and securely moves people and goods through the country and overseas.

The Transportation Systems Sector consists of seven key subsectors or modes: 













Aviation includes aircraft, air traffic control systems, and about 19,700 airports, heliports, and landing strips.

Approximately 500 provide commercial aviation services at civil and joint-use military airports, heliports, and sea plane bases. In addition, the aviation mode includes commercial and recreational aircraft (manned and unmanned) and a wide-variety of support services (such as aircraft repair stations, fueling facilities, navigation aids, and flight schools).

Highway and Motor Carrier encompasses more than 4 million miles of roadway, more than 600,000 bridges, and more than 350 tunnels. Vehicles include trucks (including those carrying hazardous materials) other commercial vehicles (including commercial motor coaches and school buses), vehicle and driver licensing systems, traffic management systems, and cyber systems used for operational management.

Maritime Transportation System consists of about 95,000 miles of coastline, 361 ports, more than 25,000 miles of waterways, and intermodal landside connections that allow the various modes of transportation to move people and goods to, from, and on the water.

Mass Transit and Passenger Rail includes terminals, operational systems, and supporting infrastructure for passenger services by transit buses, trolleybuses, monorail, heavy rail (also known as subways or metros), light rail, passenger rail, and vanpool/rideshare. Public transportation and passenger rail operations provided an estimated 10.8 billion passenger trips in 2014.

Pipeline Systems consist of more than 2.5 million miles of pipelines spanning the country and carrying nearly all the nation's natural gas and about 65 percent of hazardous liquids, as well as various chemicals. Above-ground assets, such as compressor stations and pumping stations, are also included.

Freight Rail consists of seven major carriers, hundreds of smaller railroads, over 138,000 miles of active railroad, over 1.33 million freight cars, and approximately 20,000 locomotives. An estimated 12,000 trains operate daily. The Department of Defense has designated 30,000 miles of track and structure as critical to mobilization and resupply of U.S. forces.

Postal and Shipping moves about 720 million letters and packages each day and includes large integrated carriers, regional and local courier services, mail services, mail management firms, and chartered and delivery services.

Water and Wastewater Systems Sector Safe drinking water is a prerequisite for protecting public health and all human activity. Properly treated wastewater is vital for preventing disease and protecting the environment. Thus, ensuring the supply of drinking water and wastewater treatment and service is essential to modern life and the Nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy.

The Water and Wastewater Systems Sector is vulnerable to a variety of attacks, including contamination with deadly agents and physical attacks (such as the release of toxic gaseous chemicals), and cyberattacks. The result of any variety of attack could be large numbers of illnesses or casualties and/or a denial of service that would also impact public health and economic vitality. The sector is also vulnerable to natural disasters. Critical services, such as firefighting and healthcare (hospitals), and other dependent and interdependent sectors, such as Energy, Food and Agriculture, and Transportation Systems, would suffer negative impacts from a denial of service in the Water and Wastewater Systems Sector.

STRUCTURE INVENTORY/ BUILDING STOCK Structure fire risk assessment is performed on the community's building stock or inventory. According to analysis by District records, there are 18,676 structures within the District. The types are listed below, with the majority being Residential, and are broken down by Planning Zone.

Most of the large commercial structures are protected with fire sprinklers systems. A few residential dwellings (mostly multifamily) in some areas are protected with residential sprinkler systems; however, most are not. Alarmed, sprinklered commercial buildings have low rated NFF so many are classified Moderate Risk.

IN ORLAND: No part of the District is immune from fire danger. Structural and automobile fires represent the most common types of fire in this area and can be caused by a variety of human, mechanical, and natural factors. Fires have the potential to spread to other structures or areas, particularly if not extinguished promptly. Proactive efforts, such as fire sprinkler systems, fire alarms, and fire-resistant construction methods, can collectively lessen the likelihood and reduce the severity of urban fires.

Below is a summary of the four main classified fire types according to NFIRS. These include structures (or fires inside a structure), vehicle, brush/vegetation (wildland), and other fires classified by NFIRS Types.

Also, below is the historical data for fire ground injuries and death to both civilian and firefighter as well as dollar loss/save rates for the period 2015-2017.

Fire stations, staffing and apparatus need to be distributed within the community to provide an initial response force capable of dealing with each unique problem. Firefighters encounter a wide variety of fire conditions related to each risk category. When determining the location of a fire station, apparatus placement and staffing levels, a point in a fire’s growth that marks a significant shift in its threat to life and property is designated. This shift, or “flashover point,” makes conditions non-survivable. The Standard of Cover is intended to put enough Firefighters on the scene in time to prevent flashover to protect both the occupants and the Firefighters.

MODERN FIRE BEHAVIOR Thanks to the recent work by NIST (National Institute of Scientific Technology) and UL (Underwriters Laboratory), the fire service is learning more now than ever about the effects of fire on modern construction. The below graphs represent the time temperature curve of a past, or “legacy” style home, compared to the dramatically explosive “modern” fire environment in a ventilation limited fire scenario. These conditions can occur in less than 5 minutes.

Common fire and life safety factors, such as fire flow and code compliance for life safety, are used to determine risk classification. Risk classifications range from Low, Moderate, High and finally to Special/Maximum. Single family dwellings, considered typical or moderate risk, comprise the majority of most communities.

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

FIRE RISK TYPE ASSESSMENT A definition of â&#x20AC;&#x153;fire risk analysisâ&#x20AC;? considers fire potential (probability), life hazards and economic impact (consequences), occupancy use, construction features, fire protection systems, fire flow requirements, and community risk factors.

FIRE - RISK LOW

Vehicles, Brush, Refuse

MODERATE Structures SMALL - MEDIUM: Residential, Multifamily, Commercial

HIGH

By evaluating and using event probability, consequence, and location (as part of this analysis of existing and potential community risk), the following TYPE classification of fire risk hazard levels have been established:

Outside fires

Target Hazards LARGE - MEGA: Residential, Multifamily, Commercial or Schools, Hotels, Malls,

Nursing,Assisted Living

Low Risk type are incidents typically requiring a single Fire Company. Examples are small brush and dumpster type fires. Vehicle fires are also classified Low Risk; however, Orland Fire dispatches, additional Truck Company, and Battalion Chief are used for traffic control and manpower.

Moderate Risk type are the Structure Fire incidents that make up most all the District. They involve Small to Medium Residential-Multifamily-Commercial occupancies. Typically, they are single family residential, small six unit or less multifamily apartment buildings, small to medium commercial, or strip mall buildings. Note that most commercial occupancies in the District are fully sprinklered.

High Risk type are Large to Mega Size Residential-Multifamily-Commercial and include Target Hazards which have the risk of large loss of life, loss of economic value to the community, or high property loss.

These include sites such as schools, hotels, skilled nursing facilities, and malls (such as Orland Square Mall).

CRITICAL TASK ANALYSIS

FIRE RISK “TASK MATH” – CRITICAL TASKS

Firefighting capability is determined by staffing levels, training, equipment, and teamwork. There are specific critical TASKS necessary to control and extinguish ALL RISK TYPE levels fires efficiently and safely. The definitions of an Effective Response Force (ERF) is the number of staff necessary to complete all the identified tasks within a prescribed timeframe. The chart to the right displays the critical tasks and minimum personnel necessary to control and extinguish each class of fire risk.

RESPONSE PLAN Response plans are the deployment of resources to bring the needed number of minimum personnel and equipment necessary to complete the CRITICAL TASKS, or “Task Math”, required to safely and efficiently mitigate the incident. This is the allocation of TEAMS/TOOLS/TRUCKS to be sent to the scene to complete the TASKS needed per incident level TYPE per THREAT (Risk).

For example, if the ERF (Effective Response Force) for a medium 2 story residential structure fire (MODERATE RISK TYPE) is 15, the District will deploy the RESPONSE PLAN (TEAMS) as per the chart below:

CONCLUSIONS and CATEGORIZATIONS â&#x20AC;&#x201C; FIRE RISK The fire risk in the District is considered moderate and in line with national averages and most at risk populations. Community Risk Priorities based on the assessment of incident and demographic data, the top three priorities for community risk have been identified. These are potential risks that can ultimately be mitigated through various strategies, which will be addressed through a comprehensive community risk reduction plan. They include a focus of reduction of cooking fires, other small fires in the home, and brush/vegetation fires.

A review of EMS incidents from 2015-2017 indicate the Top 10 medical natures. This is an abbreviated period due to RMS software changes and incompatibility. The impressions are listed below. The top impression was “Other” so no conclusions can be drawn on those, as well as “No Apparent Illness/Injury.” These are likely refusals of treatment/transport. : Traumatic injury” was consistently the top with the Top 10 injury causes, listed on the next page.

This data set is limited to the last 8 months due to the RMS change/incompatibility; however, as Traumatic Injury is the top EMS incident nature, it is pertinent to note that other than the second highest cause (Car occupant injury in MVA). The remaining clear majority are falls.

EMS RISK CONCLUSIONS and CATEGORIZATIONS Additional research and data analysis is needed to identify the most frequent primary impression involved such as: traumatic injuries, chest pain, altered level of consciousness, abdominal symptoms, etc. The current data available shows that traumatic injuries, because of falls, are the highest frequency nature. Non-traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest cases represented a relatively small number of EMS incidents. Most occurred at home and most presented with an initial rhythm of ventricular fibrillation (V-Fib). In 2017, the save rate for cardiac arrest patients in V-Fib reached 65% (national average is 11%).

Emergency Medical environment continues to evolve with a changing society. Events such as terrorism, active shooter, and other man made hostile events are reshaping EMS roles and responsibilities which will require continued planning and training to meet those risks. EMS incident data showed that most of ground-level falls occurred among 65 years and older, typically female. The types of injuries were usually hip and lower-extremity fractures. While such injuries can be significant in younger persons, they are often much more devastating in the elderly. They frequently result in long-term functional impairment, nursing home admission, and increased mortality. Ground-level falls are preventable in many cases by making homes safer by reducing tripping hazards, improving lighting, and adding grab rails in bathrooms. In addition, regular exercise to improve strength and balance, annual eye exams, taking calcium and Vitamin D supplements, and ensuring that any medicines they are taking does not have side effects, such as dizziness or drowsiness, can all help to reduce the potential for falls.

HAZARDOUS MATERIAL RISK HAZMAT is TYPE classified LOW-MODERATE RISK.

HAZMAT - Critical Task / ERF

A hazardous material is any substance or material capable of posing an unreasonable risk to health, safety, and property. Multiple factors determine if a material is considered hazardous, including quantity, concentration, and physical or chemical characteristics. A hazardous material becomes a hazardous waste when it can no longer be used for the purpose it was originally intended.

Hazardous materials are present throughout the District. Chemicals are used in process, in transit, in storage, and, in some cases, disposed of illegally. These hazardous materials come in all sizes and risks from household hazardous waste to acutely hazardous materials. Businesses use, transport, or sell thousands of diverse types of hazardous materials. Many processors mix materials, changing the chemical properties and increasing the potential risk.

The District recognizes that all facilities have the potential to carry and utilize minimal amounts of hazardous materials. A number of these businesses have reportable levels (quantities of material that require disclosure of the location, amount, and nature of the risk) of hazardous materials. Additionally, all types and quantities of hazardous materials travel through the District by rail, air, and truck. The hazardous materials risk may be significant enough to require the District to have a hazardous materials response team capable of Level A entry (HazMat).

DISASTER RISK DISASTERS are TYPE classified as HIGH RISK. The following tables were established using data from 2013 Illinois natural hazard mitigation plan. It was used to determine the probability of a natural disaster occurring to the area of the Orland Fire Protection District. After the probability was established for the District’s area, it was broken down by occupancy and individualized the impact for each building type.

The following disaster types were established as possibilities for the District: 

Severe Thunderstorm



Extreme Winter Storm/Ice



Tornado



Extreme Temperatures



Flood



Earthquake



Drought



Disease Epidemic

The impact of each disaster was broken down by the impact of three distinct areas: human impact, property impact, and business impact.

Human impact is the risk towards health and life of the occupants of these buildings.

Property impact is the structure itself and the need for rebuilding or repairs.

Business impact is the ability to remain open to perform business operations. These individual impacts are combined, averaged, and combined with the probability of each disaster occurring. This raw value will indicate the risk assessment for each given occupancy.

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

123

Using this method for developing risk assessment, several conclusions were found. It was established that severe thunderstorms and extreme winter storms had the greatest probability of occurring. This was followed by tornado, extreme temperatures, and flood.

The total impact/consequences were highest for tornado and earthquake due to the nature of the event. The property and business impact will be high if a disaster of that magnitude occurred. This leads to the overall risk assessment to be established as the highest for extreme winter storm, tornado, and extreme winter storms for most of occupancies. The hazards that were identified to have the longest duration were flood, disease epidemic, and drought. A longer duration, but a lower acute risk, makes these events have a lower impact but still affects the community. The following map shows the tornado activity for the United States. The District’s area shows an average of six to ten tornados per 1000 sq. mi. per year. This map shows the hazard of seismic activity in the District’s area. With southern Illinois having a much greater risk than the District’s area, the District still has risk of earthquake activity.

In the event of this happening, it would have tremendous impact on the District’s area.

The clear majority of the Service Incidents are Invalid Assists at 2,164, which represents nearly 5.7% of the incidents from 2015-2017. Defective elevators (usually alarms with no occupants) and lockouts rounded out the top three.

NFIRS 600 – GOOD INTENT/OTHER

NFIRS 700 – FALSE CALLS

Service Calls, False Calls, and Good Intent Calls all fall into the low-risk category. The service demand is increasing for these incidents and, while they require a small response, they are a deployment demand that affects the District’s ability to respond to other incidents. The NFIRS 600 and 700 calls will continue to be analyzed for effects on response benchmarks.

INCIDENT RESPONSE MEASURES/ SERVICE DEMAND To properly review SYSTEM incident deployment and response performance, several factors are usually analyzed and measured which is referred to as “Service Demand.” It starts with these questions:  WHAT: What type of Incident is it?

Fire, EMS, rescue, hazard, service, and other are the main types. Nature of call or NFIRS (National Fire Incident Reporting System) Coding a consistent formula for typing.  WHEN: When did the request occur?

These time measures start MACRO and end MICRO – Year, month, day of week, and hour of day.  WHERE: Where was the incident location and occupancy?

Actual GIS plotting and occupancy type trends should be reviewed.  WHO: Who responded the incident?

What shift, what station, and/or what unit(s) responded?  HOW: How well did they perform?

Did the system perform as expected and planned? Did they respond within benchmark times or better?

If not, then why not? By exploration of the above metrics and others later in this section, the emergency response plans for the future can be predicted and planned.

INCIDENT RESPONSE MEASURES

During the period January 1, 2015, through December 31, 2017, the District was dispatched to 27,238 incidents, or an average of 9,079 annually.

How?

Incident types are based on the National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) standard definitions as developed through the U.S. Fire Administration and National Fire Data Center. Incident type is defined as the situation found upon arrival by emergency providers. It covers the large varieties of calls the modern District responds to daily and are divided into nine series. Within each series are additional codes that define the incident more specifically. The primary incident types are listed below with the total volume for each from 2015-2017.

NFIRS Incident Type Series Code/Title 100 – Fires 200 - Overpressure Rupture, 300 – Rescue & Emergency 400 – Hazardous Condition 500 – Service Call 600 – Good Intent Call 700 – False Alarm and False Call 800 – Severe Weather and 900 – Special Incident Type

INCIDENTS PER YEAR A review of the incidents per year show a steady increase since the District was formed. 2017 has a small drop 1.2% of 117 incidents (from 9,960 in 2016 to 9,843 in 2017). A number of these incident decreases may have been due to the passing of a few “regular” patients that needed frequent citizen assists.

However, incidents year to date in 2018 are up by 5.8% in January and 10.3% in February. Therefore, an upward trend growth is projected.

UNIT WORKLOAD A most important workload indicator is the number of responses per unit and the time spent on those responses. The amount of time a unit is unavailable is a key factor in analyzing concentration and reliability.

One workload issue is the number of calls that a unit services within its own first due area versus the number it responds to outside of its first due area. There are three reasons for responses outside of the first due area are: 1.) Concurrent calls outside a units Area of Responsibility, 2.) Calls requiring multiple units, and 3.) Specialty unit capabilities that take the unit out of its primary first due to provide services to the larger area. It should be noted that fire, rescue, and EMS calls routinely require adjacent units. This will be discussed further in this section under Reliability.

WHERE – BY TYPE?

Where?

When?

Who?

Where the incidents occur include several factors that can reviewed. First, specifically where the actual physical location is at can be geo coded, plotted, and scrutinized in INCIDENT depth by GIS (Geographical Information System) divisions RESPONSE What?

How? and mapping. Those maps and extensive measures provide MEASURES a great deal of easily recognized and understood tools to determine performance – both positive and negative. By quickly identifying gaps in ACTUAL performance and potential FUTURE response, challenges can be investigated.

Placement of station locations and assignment of personnel/apparatus are decisions that can be made easier through these tools and one that is critical to a truly “useful” Standard of Coverage plan. Furthermore, it aids in the continuous monitoring process to maintain expected performance.

A second measure is to identify the PROPERTY USE TYPE where that the location is. From residential to multifamily, commercial, assisted living/nursing, and open areas (roadways, fields, etc.), all are examples of occupancy data that show trends in incidents. Most departments have their highest percentage of incidents in residential occupancies. In Orland, these incidents account for 57%, followed by business at 13%, and outside or special property at 10%. Those top three combined account for 80% of the incidents property use from 2015-2017.

INCIDENT RESPONSE MEASURES

How?

CURRENT DEPLOYMENT and PERFORMANCE DEPLOYMENT PERFORMANCE Deployment performance can be measured using three concepts: distribution (what and where), concentration (how much), and reliability (how well). These concepts will be used in the creation of performance objectives, performance measures for response times, and the determination of the District’s ability to provide an effective response force for each risk category for each service provided.

DISTRIBUTION (FIRST DUE) Distribution is defined as the systematic locating of geographically-distributed first due resources (stations, apparatus, and personnel) for all-risk initial intervention. Distribution locations, also known as “points of service delivery,” are established to ensure the rapid deployment of resources to intervene in routine emergencies and bring them to a successful conclusion. For the most part, this is time and distance analysis. The distribution system is set up to provide the appropriate emergency response to the variety of risks identified in the previous section.

The District uses an “all-risk” concept in that each first due station is equipped and staffed to provide an effective base line response. The effectiveness of a distribution system is normally measured by the percentage of the jurisdiction covered by the first due units within adopted public policy response times.

Specific performance objectives have been established for each service provided. (See next chapter.) A distribution network is considered successful when it can provide a resource to the scene of an emergency with the correct apparatus, equipment, and staffing to complete the following: 1. Assessment of the situation and take command.

2. Establishment of a plan of action capable of mitigating the emergency.

3. Request for appropriate resources, if necessary.

4. Intervention to stop/impede the escalation of the emergency.

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

186

The current distribution of resources for the District can be traced to several events throughout its history. The location and spacing of stations has been dependent on funding, land availability, infrastructure, and expected growth.

Distribution implies that there are certain risks that will require resources beyond that available on initial attack. The depth of coverage includes an analysis of whether sufficient resources are available within acceptable time frames to amass staffing, equipment, and apparatus to deal with identified risk levels. Distribution performance measurement emergencies are those incidents that have a direct impact on the placement of fire stations and the resources in the stations. EMS, rescue incidents, and structure fires are the key measured emergencies, or Priority 1 calls. Other types of incidents are not modeled, as they do not overly affect deployment, but are a sub-set of the total workload. Incidents outside the District areas are not used for analysis. Measurement of incidents are from the Records Management Systems (RMS), GIS, and StatsFD data base and are reviewed based on incident type codes with outliers are removed.

Measuring the distribution system is normally accomplished using Travel Time or Total Response Time of first due company resources. Travel Time is the interval of time from the point the emergency unit begins responding to its arrival at the scene of the emergency. Total Response Time begins when the request for emergency services is received at the dispatch center and extends to the arrival of the first emergency unit at the scene of the emergency, including turnout from unit notification to response.

Response Times (Baselines): The rapid deployment of resources to emergencies is another distribution factor to consider.

The District uses the nationally-recognized incident count to better inform management and determine resource allocation and deployment decisions. The use of "incident count" has been the basic reference numbers used by the District for deployment issues and for collecting data on response volumes. This was an integral part of the 2006 Master Plan and the current budgetary process. Incident count data is typically used and reported to describe service demand changes over time because the number and type of resources (i.e., Engines, Trucks, Ambulances, etc.) assigned or committed to each event is subject to operational policy. Thus, data that reflect the number of times a resource is "dispatched" to an event are not suitable for performing trend/historical or comparative analysis of incidents.

Response times are one of the most frequently-used methods of measuring system performance as it relates to the overall response time. In review of the CAD and RMS data, the District tracks four elements of response from turnout-time through enroute time, on-scene time, and when companies are available. Additionally, call handling time is also measured (the time Orland Dispatch picks up the 911 call to the time units are notified or â&#x20AC;&#x153;dispatchedâ&#x20AC;?). The District uses NFPA 1710 as the benchmark goal for all these measures: 90% of Incidents: Call Processing < 60 sec., Turnout < 80 sec. Fires (< 60 sec. EMS), Travel < 240 sec.

(Distribution/First Due), Travel < 480 sec. (Concentration/Balance of alarm)

The current distribution is shown to the below with six stations.

It is important in the measurement of response time that recognition is given to the passage of time within each element. The degree of life and property loss depends on reducing the overall time by improving each segment incrementally.

The District currently uses Image Trend Elite, interfaced to TriTech Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) Software, as a records management system to document and record emergency calls. A key component of this software enables the District to produce statistical reports to assist in the assessment of the level of service being provided. Additionally, the District uses StatsFD to interface the two existing platforms as well as two other previous RMS for historical data.

Dispatch records on emergency incidents are essential to providing an accurate report of the District’s activities.

TRAVEL TIME ANALYSIS For the period of 2015-2017, 90% of the calls in protection areas were covered within a four minute or less travel time by the first unit to arrive. The average travel time to all fire emergencies was 3 min. 48 sec. and 90% of all fire emergencies have a unit arriving in 6 min. 4 sec. for travel time.

PERFORMANCE GOALS/OBJECTIVES BENCHMARKS and BASELINES The District has developed objectives for each of the major services provided: fire suppression, emergency medical services (EMS), rescue, and special operations. These performance objectives further define the quality and quantity of services. The benchmark performance goals are per risk type.

FIRE For 90% of all Fire incidents, the District shall arrive “first due/distribution” in less than 6 min. and 20 sec. with at least four personnel sufficient resources to stop the escalation of the fire and keep the fire to an area of involvement upon arrival limiting the heat and smoke damage. Initial response resources shall be capable of assuming command, containing the fire, rescuing at-risk victims, protecting exposures and performing salvage operations while providing for the safety of the responders and general public.

Apparatus shall have a minimum pump capacity of 1500 GPM and 750-gallon water tank for Engines, 400 gallons for Quints. A positive water supply shall be established and hose line deployed, attacking the fire within 5 min. of arrival or less.

Additionally, the “balance of alarm/concentration” or Effective Response Force (ERF) shall arrive in less than 10 min. and 20 sec. with a minimum of 15 personnel for moderate risk type classified incidents.

High risk type classified incidents shall have a “full still” deployment of a total minimum 28 personnel within 10 min. and 20 sec. The ERF shall be capable of transferring and maintaining Command, providing an uninterrupted water supply, advancing attack and backup lines for fire control, complying with OSHA requirements of two-in-two-out and on-deck companies, completing forcible entry, search and rescue, ventilation, and utility control with ability to utilize aerial devices if necessary and support sprinkler systems if available. These actions shall be done in accordance with District Standard Operating Procedures with Safety/Sectoring, Command/Control, and Rehab of all companies as needed.

EMS For 90% of all Emergency Medical Service incidents, the District shall arrive “first due/distribution” in less than 6 min. with at least five personnel trained and equipped to assume Command/Safety, provide medical services that will stabilize the situation, provide care, support to the victim, and reduce, reverse, or eliminate the conditions that have caused the emergency while providing for the safety of the responders and transportation of patient(s), if necessary, to appropriate medical facilities in an effective and efficient manner. For all moderate risk type incidents where resuscitation of victims is required, the District shall arrive in less than 10 min. with at least nine personnel and resources to treat, stabilize, move, and transport patient. ERF Concentration per high risk type level shall arrive in less than 10 min. and 20 sec with at least 26 personnel capable of assuming sector roles including at least Medical, Triage, Treatment, Transportation, Staging, and Fire/Rescue as needed.

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

190

RESCUE/SPECIAL OPERATIONS For all Low Risk Type Special Operations such as Hazardous Materials, Rescue: Vehicular/Machinery, Technical, or Water Rescue; the District shall arrive â&#x20AC;&#x153;first due/distributionâ&#x20AC;? in less than 6 min. and 20 sec. with at least four personnel trained at the Operations level with sufficient resources to establish Command/Safety, stabilize the situation, stop the escalation of the incident, contain the hazard where applicable, and establish an action plan to stabilize the situation or treat/extricate the victim(s) from the emergency or location without causing further harm to the victim, responders, public, and environment.

ERF Concentration per Moderate Risk Type level shall arrive in less than 10 min. and 20 sec. capable of assuming sector assignments as needed including stabilization, medical, and extrication.

If Technician/Team High Risk Type level response is necessary for ERF Concentration, they shall arrive in less than 15 min. once dispatched with at least 13 personnel for Water Rescue incidents, 14 personnel for Hazardous Material incidents, and 18 personnel for Technical Rescue incidents HazMat ERF, In addition to above, shall be capable of isolating, identifying, and mitigating the hazard with entry/decon teams, monitoring resources, and providing a research team to test, sample, contain, extinguish and/or abate the hazard in accordance within the District standard operating procedures.

Technical & Water Rescue ERF, in addition to above, shall be capable of providing entry and backup teams to stabilize, medically treat, and extricate the victim(s) in accordance within the District standard operating procedures.

RELIABILITY FIRST DUE This Distribution measure identifies compliance when an “first due” unit can respond “first” to an incident inside their assigned AOR (Area of Responsibility).

The higher the percentage, the better the compliance.

On this map, the dots indicate actual historic incidents in which a SECOND station was first in. In this case, it shows the location of the 21% non-compliant incidents for the first due.

This is DISTRICT WIDE and for ALL INCIDENTS – both EMERGENCY and nonemergent calls. Times indicated are from unit Dispatched to Arrival.

192

RESPONSE RELIABILITY Response reliability deals with the delivery system’s ability to meet stated or desired performance objectives, response time goals, and performance measures.

Historical performance and system reliability are the two key components of this measurement. A key indicator in the analysis of performance is the ability of first due companies to service their own first due area.

There were 21% of the incidents from 2015-2017 where a unit other than the first due company(s) arrived first. That is over 6,000 times the “first due” was not “first”.

This chart indicates the percent of the calls in each first due area that a unit other than a first unit arrived first.

CONCURRENT/SIMULTANEOUS INCIDENTS Incidents do not occur on a one-at-a-time basis. As such, emergency response system must be prepared and situated to handle multiple incidents that occur concurrently along with incidents that require more units on at one incident.

These scenarios can stress many response systems and impact performance benchmarks.

In the Orland Fire Protection District from 2015-2017, the frequency of two or more other incidents occurring concurrently/simultaneously is: 72% - 11,450 incidents 1 simultaneous alarm (2 total)

CONCENTRATION Concentration is defined as the number and spacing of resources needed to achieve an â&#x20AC;&#x153;effective response forceâ&#x20AC;? that can be assembled at the scene of an emergency within a defined time frame for each given risk and level of service. An effective response force is the accumulation of resources necessary to stop the escalation of the emergency and bring it to conclusion. In other words, concentration is the ability to place enough resources on a specific call to keep the event from becoming a major emergency. Concentration considers risk versus cost.

Both factors are variables; thus, increased risk equals increased concentration.

Concentration can be measured in several ways. The most common approach is to measure the percentage of the community covered by an effective response force within adopted time frames. A first-alarm assignment is considered an effective response force for fire incidents.

In arriving at a concentration level for the District, the challenge is to strike a balance on how much overlap there should be between station response areas. Some overlap is necessary to maintain response times and to provide back-up for distribution when first-due units are committed. A successful concentration network means that the system can provide the correct equipment, apparatus, and staffing to the scene of an emergency to complete the following: 1. Stop the emergency from continuing to escalate.

2. Provide for the safety and security of citizens and emergency workers.

3. Complete all critical tasks in a timely manner.

4. Provide for incident management and Command.

Most of the areas now served started with limited development and very little risk. As time passed and development continued, both the population base and risk increased. The location and spacing of resources has been dependent on funding, land availability, and infrastructure. Measuring the current concentration is accomplished using calls for service and the system performance of the company resources. There were 30 structure fires in which a full Effective Response Force (ERF) arrived on scene since 2015.

HISTORICAL RESPONSE EFFECTIVENESS – Total Response Time CALL PROCESSING The initial 911 call is picked up and processed the Orland Park Police Department 9-1-1 Primary PSAP Center. Once the call is determined to be a Fire or Ambulance incident, it is then transferred to the District’s Orland Central Dispatch. This handoff time is supposed to occur less than 30 sec. per NFPA 1710. In attempting to analyze theses times, the District has worked with the Orland Park Police and discovered that this time is not readily available. Further work is underway to streamline the process.

After reviewing a one-month sample data from 2017 (that must be manually matched police to fire), it appears that the 90% baseline time is 50 sec. for handoff. The District is working with PSAP to reduce that time to reach the benchmark goal time of 30 sec., 90% of the time.

NFPA 1710 2016 edition calls for call processing to be at 60 sec. or less, 90% of the time, and 90 sec. for EMD processing dispatch.

Call Transfer times (police to fire) may need to improve after further analysis.

TURNOUT TIME Turnout time is higher than national standards. To resolve some extended turnout issues, the department has implemented daily prior shift data reviews and negative reporting on weekly basis in which the Battalion Chiefs review with each station the delays. This process was implemented in the beginning of 2018. NFPA 1710 2016 edition calls for turnout time to be 80 sec. or less, 90% of the time, for fires and special operations and 60 sec. or less, 90% of the time, for EMS. Turnout time needs to improve. This is the only category not meeting the District’s initial benchmark goal (NFPA 1710). Currently, the 90% baseline measure is at 2 min. and current SOG time. This is being reviewed.

TRAVEL TIME Travel time is at 3 min. and 57 sec. for the first due unit to all emergency fire and EMS calls, 90% of the time, which meets the benchmark goal of 4 min. (given the variance 1 second from 4 min. and 1 second on 89.9% of the calls) for the period 2015-2017.

Traffic and recent extensive roadwork improvement to the main artery in Orland Park (LaGrange Rd) has possibly extended these times. The new development and workload have increased the time to incidents. The District’s goal is to maintain a consistent 4-minute travel time for 90% compliance. In addition, the District supports implementing fire prevention and education solutions to aid in fire suppression and medical alternatives. Supporting infrastructure improvements, reviewing new development, and aiding interagency community services are also goals for improved services.

NFPA 1710 2016 edition calls for travel time to be at 4 minutes or less, 90% of the time, and ERF travel time to be 8 minutes or less, and 90% of the time. This concept is an NFPA standard that is not routinely

met; however, the District does meet this goal. The District was built based on city growth, funding, and street network. Decisions made in the past improved service. For the most part, the community and community leaders believe the current service is acceptable. However, this may be taxed in the future as the Village has recently informed the District of several new nursing homes and large senior living complexes that will be coming soon. These alone are known to generate many more additional calls.

Maintaining current service and improving service in areas that are less served than others are the current goals.

RESILIENCY The dictionary definition of resilience is, “The capacity to recover quickly from difficulties”. In the fire service, that translates to how well departments bounce back from adversity, regardless of the cause.

This could be wide scale and far reaching events such as severe weather extremes, massive prolonged power outages, floods, and mass casualty events or simply multiple concurrent incidents that require a response and resilient. Even Firefighters, individually, learn to respond, handle the emotionally challenging scene, and then return to some normalcy.

The District’s response system is built on reliability, consistency, redundancy, and performance (including speed). There may be times that the system is pushed and stressed. Severe weather incidents such as thunderstorms (or worse – tornados and other conditions) spread resources thin. These situations alter levels of response that are instituted. “Storm Mode” response procedures dispatch the closest fire company to investigation and initiate alarm activations (without tone alerts – just radio notification).

The ability to recover to “normalcy” can include multiple considerations, such as:   



Capability – Developed early through trained KSA (knowledge, skills, and abilities).

Capacity – Resources ready state (mechanically sound and properly equipped).

Reliability – Amount of times a unit can respond to incidents in own still area as first due.

Availability – Use of resources and ability to add units to response or coverage.

Located at 10728 W. 163rd Pl at the District’s Training Campus is the Training Center.

This was originally constructed in 2008 as a shell of a fire station; however, it is currently used extensively for the Command Training Center, EMS Simulation Lab, and numerous other classes.

It was designed to be brought up as a 7th station very quickly in the case that the need and demand presents itself. As Station 7, the map below illustrates the potential impact area as a 4-minute travel

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

224

(AOR) and 8-minute travel times as displayed. The improvement in coverage area and response time reductions are obvious. When viewed with the current deployment maps and incidents, this station fills in the performance gaps in first due response and also has great backup (2nd due) potential to four other stations â&#x20AC;&#x201C; #6, #3, #4, #1.

Additionally, it opens the possibility of relocating Station 3 to improve response coverage in that AOR. Included in that AOR for Station #7 are target hazards of 3 schools (2 of which are elementary and junior high schools) and 2nd due to one existing nursing home (with and additional facility being proposed for 159th St and 108th Ave), an Ice Arena, and a number of religious assembly locations.

An additional beneficial factor, outside of dramatically improved response area, would be the benefit of having personnel assigned full-time to the Regional Training Campus to assist/oversight as needed.

Further research and analysis should occur on this option.

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

225

COMPANY AVAILABILITY (UNITS/STATIONS OUT OF SERVICE) As defined by the CPSE Manual, response reliability is defined as the probability that the required amount of staff and apparatus will be available when a fire or emergency call is received. If every piece of fire department apparatus that were available in its desired location every time a fire/EMS call was received, then the departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s response reliability would be 100%. If however, a call is received for a company but that company is busy at another call, a substitute company must be assigned from another station. If the substitute station is too far away, that company cannot respond in the maximum prescribed travel time.

A fire company unavailable for response provides no service to the community. Basically, if a company is not available 80% of the time, it is not reasonable to expect the unit to perform at the 80th percentile.

Availability refers to the number of hours the company can respond to an incident over the number of hours it is in service. In a 24-hour period, if a unit is committed or unavailable for other reasons for six hours, it has only 75% availability remaining.

UNIT WORKLOAD Unit workload looks at, not only how many incidents a unit responded to, but also how much time those units spent on those incidents; therefore, being unavailable for additional calls which creates a decrease in reliability performance.

The busiest units or companies include trucks, especially T1 as it is in the center of town. At least one truck is deployed on most fire incidents (alarms, vehicle, reported fires, etc.). It is also the first responder to the Orland Park PD (a high frequency EMS incident request location).

As EMS accounts for 63%, the five main ambulances are busy. (A1 is currently only brought up if manpower exceeds minimum level.)

ADDITIONAL RESOURCE AVAILABILITY As described in detail previously, MABAS Agreements and Automatic Aid Agreements greatly assist the District in reinforcement on scenes and backfilling at stations to provide consistent coverage for simultaneous incidents which helps the District perform at benchmark response levels.

Additionally, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Call Backâ&#x20AC;? for general alarms (usually Full Still Level or higher) will notify off-duty members to respond back to their assigned stations.

PLANNED SPECIAL EVENTS Large scheduled or unusual type incidents are pre-planned with Incident Action Plans (IAP), developed and distributed to the line personnel as well as Public Safety partners (Police and Villages).

These forms follow NIMS 200 formats. Additional units, either Ambulances or Utility Vehicles, are deployed where deemed practical and beneficial.

LARGE-SCALE OR UNPLANNED EMERGENCIES Thanks to extensive training with surrounding towns and MABAS Division departments, as well as cooperative training with Public Safety Partners (the Orland Park Police), the District is ready to responds efficiently, safely, and proficiently to All Hazard Zone incidents.

CONSIDERATION OF TIME AS A FACTOR Time is an important measure when evaluating deployment as time has a significant impact on the outcome of emergency incidents. From modern fire behavior and time temperature curve to cardiac arrest survivability and hemorrhage control, time is a very real factor that can truly mean the difference between life and death.

CONCLUSION Analysis of total response time and effective response force must continue to identify gaps and potential areas of improvement.

SECTION 5 - PLAN FOR MAINTAINING and IMPROVING PERFORMANCE MAINTAINING and IMPROVING PERFORMANCE Maintaining and improving performance is paramount to any progressive and successful emergency services program. The District is committed to not only maintaining the current performance levels, but also improving.

Compliance Model To develop and a plan to maintain and improve response capabilities, the District began with a proven model of Plan-DO-Check-Act. Using this model as a foundation, the District has adopted the following compliance model that also parallels the compliance model in the CFAI Community Risk Assessment/Standard of Cover.

Establish and Review Performance Objectives

Make Adjustments

Evaluate Performance

Validate Compliance

Develop Compliance/ Improvement Strategies

Communicate Expectations

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

230

COMPLIANCE / REVIEW METHODOLOGY Implementing a plan to guide improving and maintaining SOC response capabilities and performance has been a weak link in the history of the Orland Fire Protection District. To strengthen this weakness, the District is committed to the SOC team and the process being developed to continually analyze the data and use the analytics for continual improvement. With facilitation by the Operations Chief, Accreditation, SOC team, and Command Staff, the SOC team will be assigned the responsibility of the managing the compliance outlined in the following steps.

Step 1 – Establish and review performance objectives (CRA-SOC Section 2-4).

1.

2.

3.

4.

Identify services provided.

Defined level of service.

Identify and cauterized levels of risk.

Developed performance distribution/concentration measures and associated objectives.

While much of this process may remain the same with each CRA-SOC process, it is important to review the underlying organizational assumptions to ensure they are still accurate and relevant. This can be done in the form of environmental scanning with an emphasis on community expectations, while updating and establishing any new performance measures when the following occur: There is a change in the type(s) services delivered by District.

New mandated laws or regulations require a change in the method of service delivery by the District.

Significant changes within District boundaries.

The Board of Trustees or Fire Chief feel there is a need to adjust performance service delivery and associated performance objectives.

Step 2 – Evaluate performance objectives (CRA-SOC Section 5) at several levels.

Performance at a District-wide level o DAILY STATION/UNIT LEVEL (including CQI on EMS) o MONTHLY SHIFT/ BATTALION LEVEL (each/all 3 shifts) o QUARTERLY OPERATIONS/ADMIN LEVEL – REVIEW ALL SHIFTS o YEARLY OPS/ADMIN/BATTALIONS – SOC/DEPLOYMENTS Performance at the geographical planning zone level.

Effective response force level.

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

231

Step 3 – Develop compliance strategies (CRA-SOC Section 7) that will include, but are not limited to: Ensure maximization of existing resources.

Evaluation of partnering opportunities.

Consideration of alternate means of service delivery.

Possible recommendations for allocating additional financial resources to improve service delivery.

Individual or group actions that can improve service delivery.

Recommend response performance reporting systems.

Step 4 – Communicate expectations.

This edition of the CRA-SOC clearly outlines service level response performance objectives. These performance objectives need to be communicated to the operations personnel responsible for service delivery as well as Support personnel. The methods for communicating performance objective expectations may include, but are not limited to: Direct communication with crews by the Battalion Chiefs.

Training via video conferencing or direct delivery.

Posting of the CRA-SOC on the District’s website and Intranet.

Real-time live delivery of response expectations on monitor video boards.

Using these and potentially other methods of communication, the District will develop a plan to communicate expectations by the end of 2018. The plan will also include an element by which members can give feedback regarding expectations.

Step 5 – Validate compliance.

The Command Staff, more specifically the Operations Division, will be responsible for validating compliance using the following mechanisms: Battalion Chiefs will monitor real-time response performance data each shift for gross deviance from performance standards.

Monthly performance reports that include performance data by unit, station, and shift will be developed, standardized, and distributed to all personnel through the chain of command.

Quarterly performance reports will be developed and delivered at the quarterly meetings.

A comprehensive annual Performance Report will be developed. The annual report will include all aspects of performance compliance for the previous calendar year, any significant trends that were identified because of analyzing performance, any new external influences or altered conditions, new growth and development trends, and new or changing risks. The annual report shall be submitted to the Chief and Board of Trustees for their review and comments.

COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

232

Step 6 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Make necessary adjustments.

By reviewing the information developed for the validation of compliance, any performance gaps can be identified and a plan formulated for improvement developed by the Command Staff, specifically the Operations Division, in partnership with the SOC team.

Annual Review of the CRA-SOC Document In addition to developing an annual performance report as outlined in Step 5, the SOC team will review on an annual basis the entire CRA-SOC to make any necessary adjustments. Following the SOC team annual review, the CRA-SOC will be reviewed and adopted by the Board of Trustees annually.

SECTION 6 - CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Development of this Standards of Cover has allowed the District to examine extensively who we are (as a Fire Rescue Service) as well as how we got here, what we do, and how well we do it. Lastly, it’s about how we can do what we do better. These conclusions and recommendations will make the District the absolute best that the District can be. After all, that is what District stakeholders (patients, victims, guests, business owners, community partners, and dedicated staff) demand and hold the District accountable to. It is the District’s mission: “Dedicated to PRESERVING LIFE and PROPERTY while valuing full ACCOUNTABILITY to each other and people WE SERVE.”

CONCLUSIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS  The District’s baseline times currently meet the National Standard benchmarks (including the very important Call to Arrival time of 90% < 6:00) with the exception of turnout time. This needs to be reduced and baselines adjusted for continuous improvement.  Handoff times from the OPPD Primary PSAP and the District’s PSAP itself need to be evaluated and monitored for compliance to NFPA standard benchmark of < 30 sec.  GIS modeling is exceptional but must be maintained for timely decisions.  Multiple technology platforms need to be consolidated, coordinated, and improved.  Data input needs to be improved for consistency (GI-GO) and analysis made a priority.  JPR times (Job Performance Requirement) scene goal times need to be established (NFPA 1401 drills) for Critical Tasks Assignments.  Conflicting data issues need to be eliminated.  Expansion of Administrative oversight and structure into programs and services will improve the District’s span of control, minimizing and eliminating redundancies, inefficiencies, and inconsistencies.  Ambulance 1 needs to be brought up to peak period, starting as soon as possible.  Station 7 staffing and deployment costs/benefit needs to be evaluated further.  Station 3’s current location is not ideal; therefore, exploration into alternate sites and deployment needs to be conducted to improve service to NW quadrant (Planning Zone #1+).  The District needs to strive to staff four person fire companies to meet NFPA 1710 compliance standard to improve efficiency and safety on emergency scenes.  The District should continue discussions and consolidation evaluations.  The District needs to expand the Training Campus as planned for increased parking, classrooms, driving pads, three house structures, taxpayer strip mall, burn town additions, swift water prop, and dive pond.  The District should consider to move the Maintenance Facility to a larger location nearby in order to offer services to outside Fire agencies and allowing expansion of additional classrooms, an auditorium, and other training functions in current Maintenance Shop.

PPC is used in several ways, to serve as a tool to help: - Insurance companies establish premiums for fire insurance.

- Communities measure the effectiveness of their fire-protection services.

- Communities plan for, budget, and justify improvements.

Most U.S. insurers of home and business properties use ISO’s PPC in calculating premiums.

In general, the price of insurance in a community with a good PPC is lower than in a community with a poor PPC.

Includes review of: - Engine companies / ladder or service companies - Geographic deployment of fire companies - Equipment / reserve equipment - Automatic Aid Agreements - Pumping capacity - Personnel and training

Evaluation of a community's water supply system to determine the adequacy for fire suppression.

- Hydrant size, type, and installation - Frequency and completeness of hydrant inspection and flow-testing programs

Includes: - Facilities for the public to report fires - Staffing, training, and certification of Tele Communicators - Facilities for dispatching Fire Departments

Local efforts to reduce the risk of fire, including: - Fire prevention codes and enforcement - Public fire safety education and Fire Investigation programs Residents and business owners should contact their insurance providers to inquire about how Orlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT / STANDARDS OF COVER | ORLAND FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT Class 1 PPC rating may impact their premiums.
