Section 2 - EMERGENCY OPERATIONS
210.07 Personnel Accountability System (PAS) Usage
PURPOSE:
To establish a Personnel Accountability System (PAS) with associated procedures that an Incident Commander (IC) on an emergency scene can use to accurately and immediately identify all personnel assigned to a specific unit.
PROCEDURE:
- This system will provide the IC, at a single location, immediate access to the names of all personnel assigned to a specific unit operating at that incident.
- The on-duty Lieutenant or Officer-in-Charge is responsible for keeping an accurate account of all members riding on his/her units on the Personnel Accountability System (PAS) cards.
- Each Department response vehicle will be equipped with a color coded PAS card to allow for easy identification by the IC. Color coding will be based on the vehicle’s response capabilities as follows:
Vehicle Type ! PAS Card Color""" White Black Red Green
d. The PAS cards will be located on the board in the apparatus bay when the vehicle
is either O.O.S for repairs or not presently staffed.
e. Each member of the Department will be issued four (4) individual color coded
PAS tags to allow for easy identification of the member’s certification or position
level. Color coding for individuals will be as follows:
Position PAS Tag Color
Chief Officers White
Lieutenant Red
Engineer Black
Firefighter Yellow
Paramedic Blue
