We are an outlaying rule array, for most signal vehicle accidents we respond with a light rescue and our primary pumper (engine), for anything more then a singe vehicle MVA we response two light rescues and up to 3 pumpers, as we don’t have are own heavy hydraulics so we relay upon anther fire department fore heavy’s, thro an automatic aid agreement for costs.

My dept. handles MVA's. We use our engine, but we do have a equipment van. Our Engine has a combo tool, and our van has the jaws. If its a water rescue, we take our equipment van, and our fast attack brush truck. But we are a small town volunteer fire department.
