I am proud to share our 2011 Annual Report with you. As has been the case for many years, 2011 was a very busy time for the CAL FIRE Riverside Unit - Riverside County Fire Department/County OES. We firmly acknowledge our elected and appointed officials who provide policy guidance to the fire department and have supported public safety by minimizing budget cuts that could have decimated our department and reduced public safety protection.
Our firefighters do a wonderful job and they do it every day. You will see their accomplishments in this report. They respond to upwards of 400 emergencies per day ranging from structure fires to vehicle fires to brush fires; medical emergencies of all sorts; traffic collisions where victims require extrication from their entrapped positions and must reach a trauma center within the critical one hour period; technical rescues where our firefighters must enter hazardous confined spaces, collapsed trenches or go over the side of near vertical cliffs; and deal with the wide array of chemical substances many of which could kill you with only one whiff.
As you can tell, I love our firefighters and the miracles they take pride in performing each and every day.
Administratively, we continued to deal with the impact of the economy on our ability to sustain emergency service delivery to our residents and visitors. California, and particularly the Inland Empire of Southern California, has suffered greatly from a depressed economy. Much of Riverside County has been horrendously impacted by foreclosed housing and unemployment. As a result, general fund property taxes and the included structure fire tax , along with sales taxes have dropped approximately 40%.

Over the last three years, The Riverside County Fire Department budget has been reduced from approximately $245 million to approximately $215 million resulting in the reduction of 240 personnel. All the while, our elected officials have held the line ensuring public safety protection and resisted closing fire stations.
For the 2012-2013 fiscal year beginning July 1, 2012, revenues are projected to remain flat with no significant growth even though some signs of an improving economy are appearing.
Despite current economic challenges, we will positively approach every endeavor and/or emergency that faces us.
We can and will make a difference. I love to hear from you when we do.
If our actions don’t meet your expectations, please send me a note. I sincerely hope we can help you - always wearing a smile or supplying a vote of support even during your most difficult of times.
The Riverside County Fire Department will continue to live up to our Core Values of Leadership, Competence, Integrity, Safety and Customer Service.
Our Values are critical to delivering the highest quality service to our residents and visitors. If you require emergency services, we will respond and provide the highest level of competent and friendly service possible.
Thank you very much.

Disaster Recovery - Reimbursement requests totaling $263,000 was submitted to the State for the 2010 Winter Storms on behalf of County departments. To date, $108,000 has been received and the balance is pending. Additionally, two other incidents, which occurred in 2005, are still open and being processed at the State level.
Cost Recovery -A comprehensive review of more than 2,900 incidents, dating back to the early 1990’s, was completed and the appropriate action has been taken on each. More than $1 million has been submitted for payment through various sources and, while recovery efforts are ongoing, $300,000 was recovered during 2011.
Operations-OES’s Operations Division has successfully completed their 2011 goals, including: the development of a Water and Dam Emergency Response (WADER) quarterly meeting group and held its first two quarterly meetings in 2011, the initiation of providing Functional Assessment Service Team (F.A.S.T.) training to Riverside County, and completed the 2011 National Incident Management System Compliance Assistance Support Tool (NIMSCAST) with 100% participation. Emergency Service Coordinators received a Code- 3 Driving Course, MDC Training, NICS Training, Fire Shelter Training, and Train the Trainer for Teen CERT (Community Emergency Response Teams).
In 2011, OES promoted a new Emergency Operations Center Manager and has since developed updated course materials for the EOC Responder Training Course, with courses to be offered to County of Riverside EOC responders starting in early 2012. Emergency Service Coordinators also began the process of assisting regional cities with the update of their Emergency Operations Plans. Additionally, Emergency Services Coordinators responded to Riverside County incidents and supported Emergency Operations Center activations.
During 2011, the Office of Emergency Services (OES) oversaw 10 emergency services grants, totaling over $19,000,000. State Homeland Security Grant Programs (SHSGP), Emergency Management Performance Grants (EMPG) and other grant programs augment and improve the County’s ability to mitigate, prepare, respond and recover from any incident that the County is faced with. These grants help to fund needed programs as well as identified equipment. On-site grant monitoring for FY2006-08 was also completed for all 33 sub-grantees.

G During the past year, Fire Protection Planning staff has been busy performing new commercial construction plan checks and inspections and has seen a steady flow in the number of requests for residential sprinkler system inspections.
Although the economy has slowed construction in general, construction has still continued at a steady pace. Inspectors have been busy performing State mandated Title 19 occupancy inspections throughout the County.
Title 19 required annual and new inspections of public schools, large family day care facilities, jails, and residential care facilities continue to consume inspection staff time.
Eastern Riverside County has become a mecca for solar energy production. Fire Protection Planning staff have participated in meetings with applicant staff members,members of the California Energy Commission, and representatives from Riverside County Transportation & Land Management Agency (TLMA) to ensure the enforcement of applicable laws, ordinances, rules and standards (LORS) are met for the safety of Riverside County residents and the protection of our firefighters.

The Communications and Information Technology Division is comprised of four individual sections; Communications, IT, Applications and GIS. The division’s focus is the maintenance of infrastructure/networks for operational readiness and the enhancement and development of emerging technologies and products.
Within the division, each section has maintained this focus and has accomplished much. Milestones include the continued maintenance and installation of mobile data computers (MDCs), GPS antennas and associated mounting hardware.
Additionally, the Public Safety Enterprise Communications (PSEC) project is approaching its completion and has required the section to manage and oversee the installation of PSEC equipment in stations, fire apparatus and administrative vehicles.
In 2011, the GIS websites were redesigned, upgraded and enhanced with new user-friendly functionalities. Continued support and improvement of GIS data was furthered by the Enterprise License Agreement between the County and the Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (ESRI). This long-awaited agreement was a first for Riverside County agencies.

In 2011, Volunteer Services began the task of converting all of our existing Volunteer Firefighter’s to the newly created Volunteer Reserve Firefighter Program (VRFF). All Volunteer Firefighters were given the opportunity to transition into this new program with an emphasis placed on making the transition a smooth and simple process for our existing volunteers. All interested volunteers were sent an enrollment packet and asked to fill out a VRFF application to enable the department to have one standard application. We received 316 responses and successfully transitioned just over 82% of the now former volunteer firefighters. Recently we enrolled 40 new VRFF’s bringing our total of active VRFF’s to 282. This number will fluctuate plus or minus 20 at any given time due to various situations and as budget allows we would like to fill any open positions throughout the county.

The Automotive Section is charged with providing safe, reliable, and operative equipment throughout the entire year.
The department refurbished its first fire engine into service in 2011. Work on this project was performed at the Riverside County Fire Department’s automotive shop in Indio. A refurbished fire pump, fire body and accessories were placed on a new Spartan cab chassis. The engine was elevated to the current NFPA standard while saving the department approximately $150,000 that would have otherwise been included in the cost of purchasing a brand new fire engine. The newly refurbished engine is in service and responding to incidents from Perris Headquarters Fire Station #1.
Refurbished Engine39
The Service Center experienced several organizational changes in 2011, streamlining the delivery of necessary station, equipment, and medical supplies. Rather than delivering requisitions to battalion headquarter stations, fire stations began to receive requisitions individually every two weeks. They also order medical supplies directly from the approved vendor. Shipments are now directly sent to fire stations.
The service center staff also provides logistical support when contacted by the Emergency Command Center (ECC). Logistical Support includes feeding, hydration and incident supplies such as fire hose, Class (A) foam, batteries, wildland PPE, hand tools, bar oil, sleeping bags, and ice chests.
