H. JURISDICTIONS
Jurisdictional boundary lines for USFS, BLM and Eagle County, (state and private lands) are
shown on the USFS White River National Forest Map.
III. AUTHORITY
This plan fulfills requirements in the latest Interagency Cooperative Fire Agreement between the
State of Colorado and the USDA Forest Service, USDI National Park Service, Bureau of Land
Management, Bureau of Indian Affairs, and Fish and Wildlife Service.
This plan fulfills Article I.2. of the Emergency Fund Contract for Forest and Watershed Fire
Control between the State of Colorado and Eagle County and becomes Attachment C of that
agreement.
This plan fulfills Section D-1 of the "Agreement for Cooperative Wildfire Protection" signed
March 12, 1990 between Eagle County and the State Board of Agriculture, by and through
Colorado State Forest Service (CSFS), and hereby becomes Attachment 3 of that Agreement.
IV. PURPOSE
The purpose of this Annual Fire Operating plan (AOP) is to set forth standard operating
procedures, agreed policies and responsibilities to implement cooperative wildfire protection on
all lands within Eagle County.
V. DEFINITIONS AND DESCRIPTIONS:
A. FIRE PROTECTION RESPONSIBILITIES
Each jurisdictional agency has ultimate responsibility for wildland fire protection on its own lands.
The fire protection responsibilities of the County Sheriff, VFD/FPD Chiefs, the Board of County
Commissioners and the Colorado State Forest Service on state and private lands are outlined in
the 1973 Colorado Revised Statutes. The U.S. Forest Service has responsibility for fires on
national forest lands and the Bureau of Land Management has responsibility for fires on BLM
public lands.
Responsibility for wildland fire suppression on state and private land within Eagle County is
shared jointly by the Sheriff and the various VFD's/FPD's. Reimbursable costs shall be covered as
mutually agreed upon by the County Commissioners, Sheriff and VFD's/FPD's.
In the event that costs to be covered by the county exceed $5000.00 the sheriff or sheriffs
designee will contact the Board of County Commissioners or its designee regarding the
commitment of additional county funds.
a
B. MUTUAL AID DISPATCH AREAS
Mutual aid wildfire protection has been established county wide between all signatories to this
plan. See section IX.D. EXFIIBIT B, shows mutual aid resources available from cooperating
agencies.
C. SPECIAL MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS
Use of roads on federal lands presently closed to vehicular travel (outside of wilderness or
wilderness study areas) is hereby authorized to all parties to this Wildfire annual operating plan as
follows:
* Access for detection and suppression is allowed on established roads behind locked gates.
* Access for suppression only is allowed on roads which have been designated as "closed".
Detection and reporting within areas marked as "low response" on the map marked EXHIBIT A
is authorized. Suppression efforts should not be taken unless authorized by the U.S. Forest
Service.
Detection or suppression within designated wilderness, wilderness study areas and/or "roadless"
areas, as designated on the map marked EXHIBIT A, is authorized as follows:
► The use of mechanized equipment (vehicles, chainsaws, pumps, etc.) within wilderness
areas is prohibited.
01 Non -mechanized detection and suppression efforts are authorized in those portions of
wilderness areas that are not part of a "low response" area.
► Detection and reporting only is authorized within wilderness areas that are also within a
"low response" area.
D. REPAIR OF WILDFIRE SUPPRESSION DAMAGE
Repair of wildfire suppression damage is the responsibility of the jurisdictional agency/agencies
unless otherwise agreed to by a unified command group. The State Emergency Fire Fund, (EFF)
is strictly a fire suppression fund and cannot pay for rehabilitation. Repair of damage directly
related to suppression, (i.e. water bars on cat lines) may be authorized by a CSFS line officer if
accomplished as a suppression component at the time of the fire suppression effort.

VIII. FIRE READINESS
A. FIRE PLANNING
This AOP is the only example of an interagency fire plan in use for Eagle County.
B. WILDFIRE TRAINING NEEDS AND COORDINATION
Standardized, nationally approved fire training courses are provided periodically by the CSFS,
USFS, BLM and other agencies. As these courses are scheduled all participants will be informed
and invited to participate. CSFS will, to the extent possible, coordinate and provide wildfire
training opportunities for local fire fighters as requested. The USFS will, to the extent possible,
assist CSFS in providing requested training.
C. INSPECTION SCHEDULES
All CSFS and Cooperator engines subject to interagency use outside Eagle County will be
inspected, both engine and equipment, to ensure use and road worthiness. Inspections will be
coordinated and conducted by CSFS mechanics.
IX. WILDFIRE SUPPRESSION PROCEDURES
A. INCIDENT COMMAND SYSTEM USE
The Incident Command System (ICS) will be utilized on all wildfires.
4
'quir, \-Wo�
In the case of fires involving or threatening more than one jurisdiction the fire will be managed by
unified command. In the case of unified command, representatives from each jurisdiction will
work together to develop a common set of goals and objectives for suppression of the fire and
designate a qualified operations section chief.
B. T)ETECTION
All reports of actual or potential wildfires will be made to Vail dispatch. All vildland fire reports
will be forwarded by Vail dispatch to the appropriate, (closest) fire department or fire protection
district, the Eagle County Sheriffs Office, (ECSO) Grand Junction Interagency Dispatch Center,
(GJC) and Colorado State Forest Service (CSFS).
The agency that can take the quickest effective fire suppression action will be dispatched for initial
attack. The jurisdictional agency will respond and establish command at the earliest possible time.
The ECSO control dispatch center may act as dispatch for wildfire operations in Eagle County.
The incident commander on scene may stay with Vail dispatch if deemed more practical or
efficient. Vail dispatch must keep the ECSO control center informed of the status of the fire(s)
and resources dispatched.
If fire dispatch requirements exceed the ability of Vail dispatch or ECSO control dispatch or
inpede with other functions of local dispatch centers, an expanded dispatch center (GJC) may be
designated to assume dispatch responsibilities for the incident.
C. NOTIFICATION ABOUT FIRES
Assisting agencies making initial attack on fires outside their jurisdiction will ensure through Vail
dispatch, that the jurisdictional agency is promptly notified. The initial attack I.C. and/or Vail
dispatch will notify GJC of all fires reported on federal lands.
D. MUTUAL AID DISPATCH AREAS
Mutual aid will be exchanged between the participants regardless of jurisdictional boundary lines,
(i.e. state/private - USFS - BLM). For the purpose of this plan, jurisdictional boundaries do riot
pertain to the boundaries of individual fire protection districts or departments. The mutual aid
area will include all lands in Eagle County. Mutual aid will be implemented as follows:
County wide mutual response: When dispatched, participants will respond to wildfires in the
county regardless of jurisdiction. The level of activity or- involvement by assisting agencies
making a response may vary. At a minimum, assisting agencies will send such personnel and
equipment necessary to size -up the fire and report the situation to the jurisdictional agency.
5
1qw� 1"W-!
County wide mutual initial attack: Participants will initial attack wildfires in the county regardless
of jurisdiction when it is within their ability to do so. Assisting agencies may not initial attack
fires on another jurisdiction if initial attack puts personnel at unreasonable risk, (such as a remote
fire discovered at night) or if asked to stand down by the jurisdictional agency. It is understood,
however, that assisting agencies are not required to obtain permission from the jurisdictional
agency before beginning initial attack except in wilderness and low response areas (sect;on V.C.)
Cou= wide mutual aid upop n request: Participants will provide aid, (personnel and equipment)
upon request from the jurisdictional agency. It is understood, however, that no agency will be
required or expected to commit its forces to assisting another agency to the extent of jeopardizing
the security or responsibilities of its own jurisdiction.
Each agency will assume responsibility for its own expenses during the first burn period. The first
burn period extends 24 hours from the time a fire is first reported to the jurisdictional agency.
The assisting agency(ies) may request reimbursement for costs incurred after that time. The
jurisdictional agency will reimburse assisting agencies for costs incurred after the first burn period
if requested to do so.
E DISPATCHING AND RESOURCE ORDERING PROCESS
Requests for additional fire fighting forces will be made as follows:
All requests for local non-federal agency fire forces will be made through Vail dispatch.
All requests for federal agency fire forces will be made through Grand Junction Interagency
Dispatch.
All requests for CSFS fire forces (except state engines already assigned to the sheriff or fire
districts) will be made through the Colorado State Forest Service District Forester or designee.
F. REINFORCEMENTS AND SUPPORT
All requests for additional resources beyond initial attack will be made by the applicable agency
representative, using the ordering procedures outlined under item IX.E above.
G. INTERAGENCY PROCUREMENT
Non-federal participants to this plan may purchase fire suppression supplies from GSA through
CSFS. Any other loaning, sharing, exchanging or maintenance of facilities, equipment or support
services will be considered on a case by case basis as mutually agreed to by the concerned parties.
6
H INTERAGENCY USE OF COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS/FREQUENCIES
Federal, state, and county radio systems are largely incompatible at this time; however, all fire
agencies in Eagle County are equipped with the Fire Emergency Radio Network (FERN-1).
FERN-1, (154.280) may be used for inter -agency communication on a wildfire if one agencies
operational channels are not cc inpatible with another agencies radios.
For the purpose of conducting business authorized by this operating plan, all parties to this
operating plan agree that assisting agencies may use the jurisdictional agency's radio frequencies
as needed to conduct emergency communications on fires. No participant to this operating plan
will use, or authorize others to use , another agencies radio frequencies for purposes beyond the
scope of this operating plan.
Radio frequencies specifically authorized for use on wildfires are shown in EXHIBIT B.
I. FIRE SITUATION ANALYSIS
Federal agencies are required to complete a Fire Situation Analysis, (FSA) on all fires on federal
lands that persist beyond initial attack.
CSFS requires that an Emergency Fire Fund Analysis Form, (CSFS-108A, see EXFIIBIT C) be
prepared on all non-federal fires that have the potential to exceed county control capabilities. The
County Sheriff or his designee should use this form to help determine if a fire might be eligible for
use of the Emergency Fire Fund, (EFF). CSFS will prepare an SFA for all fires that are approved
for EFF use.
J. STATE EMERGENCY FIRE FUND (EFF)
Eagle County is a member of the State Emergency Fire Fund, (EFF). The purpose of EFF is to
provide funds for fire suppression on multiple fires or a single large fire on private or state lands
that exceed the suppression capability of the county.
Funding for EFF is provided by participating county governments. Each participating county pays
annually into the fund based on the total assessed property value and acres of private and state
land. If and when EFF funds are exhausted, CSFS will make every effort to obtain additional
funds as needed from the Governor's emergency fund or from a special appropriation of the
Colorado Legislature.
Implementation of EFF can only be done by the State Forester of Colorado or his representative
upon the recommendation of the local CSFS District Forester or his designee following a request
from the county. For this reason it is important that the District Forester or his designee be
notified immediately of fires on private or state land within the county. * Should the fire surpass, or
threaten to surpass the ability of county resources to contain it, EFF implementation can only
7
occur with a CSFS representative on the scene of the fire.
It is the duty of the District Forester or his representative to evaluate and report the situation to
the State Forester and to formally request implementation of EFF. Requests for EFF
implementation must be done in writing using the CSFS fire Funding Request form, (CSFS 164).
In the case of EFF implementation the District Forester will act for the State Forester until
relieved by a CSFS line officer. It is the sole responsibility of CSFS to act as administrator of
EFF funds..
The County Sheriff or his designee is responsible for initiating a written analysis of the fire to help
determine if a request for EFF implementation is warranted. The Sheriff or designee will
complete the EFF Analysis form, (CSFS 108A) prior to requesting EFF implementation. The
CSFS District Forester or his designee may assist with the analysis. In the case of EFF
implementation, the Sheriff and the Board of County Commissioners are responsible for assigning
control duty to CSFS by completing and signing the Assumption of Fire Control Duty form
(CSFS 168). The Sheriff and the county will continue to put forth a maximum wildfire control
effort. County resources committed to the fire shall not be less than shown in EXHIBIT C. The
Sheriff will act as the county representative of any unified command group. The Sheriff will assist
with daily analysis of the fire, (Escaped Fire Situation Analysis) and assume command when the
incident is back within the county's ability to control.
The above reference forms, (CSFS 108A, 164, 168 and escaped fire situation analysis) are shown
in EX 03IT C.
It is the duty of other county agencies to assist the Sheriff in maintaining a maximum control
effort for the duration of the fire. If any federal lands are involved in the fire those agency
representatives will be a partner in a unified command structure.
CSFS will relinquish command of EFF fires back to the County Sheriff when daily situation
analysis show that the fire is within the county's ability to control. The county will mop -up and
patrol the fire until declared "out" according to directions provided by CSFS or the unified
command group-
K. TRAFFIC CONTROL
Traffic control will be provided by the County Sheriff upon request to expedite the routing of
vehicles to and from major fires and to exclude unauthorized personnel from the fire area.
L. LAW ENFORCEMENT AND FIRE INVESTIGATION
It will be the responsibility of the jurisdictional agency to take appropriate law enforcement
action. Law enforcement personnel from non jurisdictional agencies may assist upon request
from the jurisdictional agency.
8
The jurisdictional agency will have responsibility for investigating fires and any civil or criminal
actions taken. Assisting agencies will cooperate with fire investigations upon request of the
jurisdictional agency(ies). Assisting agencies will make every effort to identify, protect and
report all evidence to the jurisdictional agency.
M. POST INCIDENT ACTION ANAJLYSIS
Post incident analysis of events and actions taken by suppression forces during wildland fires will
be conducted by the jurisdictional agency commensurate with the complexity of the incident.
N. OUT OF JURISDICTION ASSIGNMENTS
Incident qualification cards, (red cards) are not required for initial attack of fires within Eagle
County; however, firefighters without red cards may be released from an incident by the
authorized representative of the jurisdictional agency. The authorized representative of the
jurisdictional agency will coordinate the release of assisting agency personnel through the ranking
officer/representative of the assisting agency.
X. AVIATION PROCEDURES
A. CALL WIEN NEEDED (CWN) AIRCRAFT
All requests for aircraft should be made to the Grand Junction Interagency Dispatch Center_
(C) through the local dispatcher, A flow chart showing recommended ordering procedures is
shown in EXhIIBIT B.
When any aircraft is requested by any agency for suppression efforts, the request must include the
following:
Name and agency of person ordering.
► Name, location and elevation of the fire.
► Name and radio frequency of ground contact at the fire.
P. Aircraft hazards in the area.
Orders for aircraft will be made only by the responsible official of the jurisdictional agency or by
mutual agreement of the unified command. Costs will be paid by the ordering agency or as
mutually agreed upon by the unified command.
Single Engine Air Tankers, (SEAT's) may be pre -positioned at airports within or closer to Eagle
County when a combination of factors or events warrant having an aircraft in the area. Requests
for pre -positioning will be made as agreed upon by the County Sheriff and the State District
Forester. Conditions that may warrant pre -positioning of a SEAT include:
N
- Multiple fire starts within a 72 hour period.
- High occurrence of dry lightning.
- Persistent Red Flag weather conditions.
- Local resources are occupied with other assignments.
- Other factors as determined by the Sheriff and the State District Forester.
When a SEAT is stationed at the Eagle County Airport, participants and cooperators will be
notified by CSFS. Gypsum VFD will provide ground support when a SEAT is pre positioned or
flying missions from the Eagle County Airport.
Colorado Army Air National Guard helicopters stationed at the Colorado High Altitude Training
Site, (CHATS) = be available when life or buildings are at risk or when federal contract aircraft
are unavailable. Request procedures are shown in EXHIBIT B.
B. LEADPLANE / AIR ATTACK ACTIVATION
Large capacity, (type I or II) air tankers stationed a Grand Junction and Broomfield are
automatically dispatched with a leadplane when one is available.
C. AVIATION REQUESTS AND OPERATIONS
Federal contract aircraft listed in EXHIBIT B may be available. These aircraft and others are
available under nation wide contracts. If the federal aircraft listed in the mobilization plan are
unavailable, orders for aircraft may be filled from out of state which will cost more than aircraft
stationed in Colorado.
Air attack with federal aircraft should be directed by qualified USFS or BLM personnel in
accordance with agency regulations.
Eagle County and the Colorado State Forest Service have an Initial Attack Aircraft Agreement
for wildfire suppression (IAAA). The purpose of the agreement is to encourage aggressive initial
attack on fires with the potential to develop into larger, more costly fires. Under the agreement
Eagle County and CSFS will share air support costs as stated in the terms of the agreement.
Initial attack is defined as suppression action during the first burn period. The first burn period
extends 24 hours from the time a fire is first reported.
10
The Eagle County Sheriff, A.J. Johnson, and the following designees are authorized to activate
the IAAA agreement:
P. Ken Wilson, CAPT.
► Mike Bosley, SGT.
► Flint Chambers, SGT.
► Steve Husky, SGT.
Sheriffs Office FAX number: 328-1654
The County Sheriff or his designees will notify the CSFS District Forester immediately of
aircraft orders made under IA►AA.
Aircraft use does not fall under mutual aid described in section IX.D. All costs for flight time and
materials will be borne by the ordering agency except for specific aircraft identified as a mutual
aid resource in EXHIBIT B.
M. FIRE PREVENTION
A. GENERAL COOPERATIVE ACTIVITIES
Each agency will provide land use reviews, (plat reviews) pertaining to fire safety, to Eagle
County Planning Department as requested. Reviewing agencies will share information on
subdivision or other plats when requested by other reviewing agencies. If warranted, participants
will coordinate reviews of subdivision plats.
B. INFORMATION AND EDUCATION
Distribution of fire prevention materials will be handled by each individual agency. Coordinated
distribution of materials and program delivery are suggested during fire prevention week, open
houses and other local events. CSFS can order CFFP, (Smokey Bear) materials for fire
departments/protection districts or the Sheriffs office upon request.
Each agency will prepare press releases according to their own prevention plans. Joint press
releases and coordination with cooperating agencies is suggested to prevent a conflict in released
material. Coordination will take place before any local agency issues a burning restriction or ban.
Fire prevention signs will be maintained as required by each agency for lands under their
jurisdiction.
The Grand Junction Interagency Dispatch Center (GJC) will monitor local fire danger levels. GJC
will make fire weather, Red Flag warnings and other fire information available to cooperators via
the internet at http://www.co.blm.gov/fire/firehome.htm or http://www.fed.us/land/wfas/. CSFS
may also notify local agencies through local dispatchers in the event of Red Flag warnings.
11
C. BURNING PERMITS AND BURNING RESTRICTIONS
Local fire chiefs have the responsibility of issuing burning permits in their respective districts. The
burning permit shall require the holder to notify the Sheriff's office and Vail dispatch of controlled
burning on private land prior to ignition. In addition all pertinent state and federal regulations will
be followed.
Requests for closures prohibiting open fires (burn bans) during hazardous periods will be made
upon consensus by the Sheriff, fire districts, CSFS, USFS and BLM that a burn ban is warranted.
At the time of any burn ban, participants and fire districts will communicate to determine the
scope of the burn ban and to develop and implement a plan for enforcement and public
notification. Avon Fire Department has agreed to serve as coordinator of bum bans put into
effect. They will maintain information relating to the scope and duration of any burn bans
activated.
XII. FUEL MANAGEMENT AND PRESCRIBED FIRE CONSIDERATIONS
The participants to this operating plan will cooperate in the development and implementation of
prescribed burning programs and projects including planned ignitions, prescribed natural fires and
modified control strategies and tactics applied to fires within remote areas.
Wildfires resulting from escaped prescribed fires ignited by a party to this operating plan on lands
it manages, shall be the responsibility of that party. The parry responsible for the prescribed fire
will reimburse other parties to this plan consistent with the terms and conditions contained herein
for costs incurred in suppression of such fires.
If parties to this plan conduct a cooperative prescribed fire, details covering cost sharing,
reimbursement, and responsibility for suppression costs, should it escape, shall be agreed upon
and documented in the burn plan.
)III. COST REIMBURSEMENTS
A. REIMBURSABLE COSTS
Costs incurred by an assisting agency for services that exceed mutual aid fire protection shall be
considered reimbursable. Services provided by assisting agencies beyond mutual fire protection
must be requested by the jurisdictional agency.
When fire occurs on lands of more than one jurisdictional agency and costs are incurred beyond
the scope of mutual aid fire protection, costs will be borne by each agency proportional to the size
of the burned area on each agency's jurisdictional area or as mutually agreed upon by the unified
command. An example of a cost share agreement is shown in EXI•IIBIT C.
12
B. REIlVIBURSEMENT PROCEDURES
If reimbursement for an incident can best be handled at a local level the assisting agency may
invoice the jurisdictional agency directly.
If deemed more efficient, the county may aggregate expenses incurred by the nounty and local
fire departments to suppress fires on federal jurisdictions and may present an invoice for such
expense to' CSFS who will then reimburse the county and subsequently bill the jurisdictional
federal agency or agencies.
Federal agencies may submit bills and statements for reimbursements from county and/or fire
districts for federal suppression on non-federal lands to CSFS. CSFS will make such
reimbursement and subsequently invoice the county or department as appropriate.
Any agencies wishing to handle reimbursements through CSFS must send invoices to the CSFS
district Office, P.O. Box 2189, Dillon CO, 80435, within 30 days after incident resources are
released. The CSFS State Office will attempt to make payment as soon as possible after receiving
the invoice. Invoices are required to have proper documentation supporting expenses before the
process for payment can be completed.
C. RESOURCE USE RATES
Resource use rates are computed annually. Current rates are listed in the mobilization plan
(EXHIIBIT B).
Cooperative Resource Rate Forms should be completed.annually by cooperating agencies. These
forms will show the rates of each resource including people that may be used on a wildland fire.
The use of resources not listed under a Cooperative Resource Rate Form may not be reimbursable
unless rates are mutually agreed to, in writing, at the time such resource is requested.
XIV. GENERAL PROCEDURES
A. PERIODIC PROGRAM REVIEWS
Program reviews will be conducted at the annual fire operating plan meeting.
B. ANNUAL UPDATE OF OPERATING PLAN
This annual operating plan, (AOP) must be reviewed annually, If no changes are made, a
statement letter with signatures of all parties to this AOP will be distributed.
13
C. RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES
The primary purpose of this operating plan is to ensure prompt suppression of wildland fires. Any
interagency dispute arising from these procedures will be resolved on site by the Unified
Command group. When necessary, following the conclusion of the incident a panel of agency
representatives other than the parties involved in the incident will review and resolve the dispute.
XV. DIRECTORY OF PERSONNEL
See mobilization guide, (ENHIBIT B).
XVI COOPERATIVE RESOURCE RATE FORMS
A. REEVMURSEMENT CONDITIONS
When responding to an assignment outside of Eagle County, the cooperator agrees to a
commitment up to 14 days with the Rocky Mountain Region (CO, WY, KS, NE, SD) and up to
21 days out of region. Any desire by personnel or their agency/department to rotate manpower or
equipment before the end of these agreed upon time periods without prior approval from the
incident will be at the cooperator's or individual's expense.
Any equipment that does not pass a pre -use inspection performed by the benefitting agency, after
arriving at an incident, will be rejected and the cooperator will not be compensated for any time or
mileage incurred.
Equipment use will be documented on an emergency equipment shift ticket, (OF-297).
Each cooperator using the Cooperative Resource Rate Form will provide worker's compensation
insurance for their personnel while crewing an engine or other piece of equipment regardless of
which cooperating agency owns the engine or equipment.
Departments agree to consolidate all bills for their department and send to the benefitting agency
or CSFS, which ever is applicable, within 30 days after the incident.
Cooperator will identify resources which can be made available but can not be committed for 14
or 21 days.
Cooperators which choose not to complete the Cooperative Resource Rate Form as an
attachment to this AOP, will be required to complete the Emergency Equipment Rental Use
Agreement at time of the incident and will be restricted to the standard Rocky Mountain Area
equipment rates.
1.4
B. ENGINE EQUIPPING AND STAFFING
Engines will be staffed and equipped with hose, fittings, nozzles, etc. according to current
standards outlined in the fireline handbook.
Each engine must be staffed by at le 1st one individual who is engine boss qualified and
knowledgeable about fire reimbursement procedures and fire business management.
C. EQUIPMENT TRANSPORTATION
Cooperating agencies that choose to respond to out of county/state incidents will drive engines
when the incident is within 150 miles. If the incident is beyond 150 miles the cooperating agency
may request the benefitting agency to provide transport of engines to the incident.
The benefitting agency will pay the cooperating agency at the guaranteed rate for equipment being
transported from point of hire to the site of work and return. On the day of dispatch, minimum
daily guarantee for that day shall not exceed the maximum hours remaining in that day.
Equipment and personnel rates during transit are recorded separately during transit. Exceptions
to the guaranteed rate are:
When equipment is not in safe operable condition no equipment time will be recorded.
If the cooperator withdraws equipment and/or operators prior to being released by the incident,
no time will be recorded. Cooperator will bear all costs of returning equipment and or operators.
If equipment cannot be repaired or replaced within 24 hours from the time of breakdown or
personnel shift change it will be deemed inoperable.
If equipment can not be repaired or replaced, personnel are entitled to their hourly rate for return
to point of hire.
D. PERSONNEL TRANSPORTATION
If equipment is transported to an incident, payment for the operators and engines are identified
separately on the Cooperative Resource Rate Form.
E. STATE ENGINES ASSIGNED TO A FIRE DEPARTMENT
CSFS will pay the cooperating fire department $50.00 per day for department owned equipment
on state engines when the engine is in work status and documented on an Emergency Equipment
Shift Ticket, (OF 297).
Ila
�"WI
Payment for the operators will be listed separately from the state engine on the Cooperative
Resource Rate Form. Payment for the engine will be made to CSFS and payment for the
operators will be made to the cooperating department.
CSFS will reimburse the cooperating department for all documented costs for fuel and oil for
state engines assigned to reimbursable incidents
F. TRAVEL EXPENSES
The benefitting agency will reimburse personnel for reasonable out-of-pocket travel expenses not
paid by the incident. Per diem rates cannot exceed current benefitting agency rates. Receipts are
required for lodging, and may be required for meals, depending on the benefitting agency policy.
G. CLAIMS
The benefitting agency may repair or replace lost or damaged equipment if such equipment is not
covered by department insurance. Damage claims will be made directly with the incident at the
time they occurred and prior to demobilization.
If such claims can not made with the incident, the damage must be reported to the benefitting
agency within 24 hours when in Eagle County. If damage occurred on an incident outside Eagle
County, cooperators may submit claims through CSFS.
For all CSFS owned engines assigned to cooperating fire departments, the cooperator will
maintain in force liability insurance coverage for each vehicle in amounts equal to or greater than
$150,000 each person/$600,000 any one occurrence, or -such higher amount as maybe specified
in the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act, 1973 C.R.S., 24-10-101, et. Seq., as amended, for
such acts as to which government immunity has been partially waived by stature or by resolution
of the district, if any. Such insurance shall be obtained from a company licensed to do business in
Colorado or through statutorily approved self-insurance program. Liability insurance is
recommended for all cooperator owned equipment.
H. RESOURCE AVAILABILITY
Grand Junction Interagency Dispatch Center, (GJC) must be kept informed of resource
availability if resources are to be used outside of Eagle County. Resource availability will be
reported at least weekly. Breakdowns of equipment and/or operator shortages should be reported
immediately if a resource is listed as available so it can be removed from the list of available
resources.
