Adopt Resolution 2016/676 recognizing the Contra Costa County Hazardous Materials Incident Response Team for placing second in the Hazardous Materials Response section at the 2016 Urban Shield Exercise.
None.
The Contra Costa County Fire Protection District participated in the Maritime/Fire/Rescue section of Urban Shield 2016. Maritime/Fire/Rescue teams were presented with realistic, mentally and physically challenging training scenarios that required them to demonstrate their ability to operate in an “all risk” environment. Examples of “all-risk” include searching for persons reported overboard, in-water rescues, and responding to reports of an oil spill followed by the provision of EMS for sick and/or injured survivors. Boat handling, navigation, use of navigation aid, marlinspike seamanship and familiarity with maritime rescue tools and equipment were also evaluated.
