This agreement is managed by Cal -OES and referred to as the California Fire Assistance Agreement (CFAA). Under this agreement, Orange City Fire Department generally provides resources two different ways; Strike Teams and Individual Overhead. Strike team deployments involve an Engine Company or Battalion Chief /Deputy Chief responding with their vehicle as part of a multi- agency team to an incident. Individual Overhead resources respond to fill a specific role for an incident, such as Safety Officer or Line Emergency Medical Technician (EMT). Following the return from one of these incidents, reimbursement paperwork and invoices are submitted by the Fire Department to Cal -OES. The additional funds, if appropriated, will reimburse Fire Department overtime and travel expenditures incurred during these incidents. 8. ATTACHMENTS N/A ITEM 2/09/16
