Question 1

T/F

If a subsequent alarm is received while the BC is monitoring a Class E or J alarm, the Battalion shall NOT be directed to respond?

Answer 1

True

Unless dispatcher receives info of a serious fire and the assigned Battalion is the nearest available Battalion Chief (i.e. 10-75 or 10-76)

If the dispatcher decides to assign the BC monitoring to another box the Engine or Ladder investigating the class e or j shall be notified via dept. radio that no chief is responding
