Keith,
This is a progressive change for the better. I especially like
the concept of assigning tactical channels. I'm sure we will work out the
bugs as we progress. I will support it from Crescent.

Subject: [Klamath County Fire Defense Board] Fire Dispatch Script
Good afternoon Chiefs.
As you all know from recent Fire Defense Board meetings we have been
evaluating our role as the communications center for Fire and EMS, and
looking at areas for improvement. We are also grateful for the input and
assistance in developing further training that we have been receiving from
members of FDB. We are, of course, committed to continuing this process.
We did, however, want to alert all your agencies of a slight change in our
Dispatch Script that we will begin to implement August 1st.
This change is meant to help our employees understand and establish our role
as communications in ICS, as well as, to assist field units that may have
less opportunity to practice it.
We will be adding the phrase "first unit on scene will be 'street name'
Command" to our initial dispatch.
We have also added protocol to acknowledge the first unit as that incident
command.
Our research and visits to other dispatch centers, have shown this to be
effective phrasing and it supports the ICS system. Please be patient with
us as we implement this change - old habits (scripts) die hard.
Thanks in advance.
