Disclaimers • Following comments are my own and do not
necessarily represent policy for LBFD
• My experience is limited to one department in SoCal, however do have some national experience with US&R and have worked with other local agencies and USCG on this topic.
• Believe I can make some general observations on other Fire Agencies

• Basic premise is that land based units will be the primary resource.
• Today’s audience is primarily from the
Maritime Industry
• Much of this prompted by new VRP standards.
Assumptions

Today’s Program
• What we have.
• What we need.
• How to get it.

• 7/24 response with a lot of well-trained experienced crews from a land based perspective
• Multiple specialized resources such as Paramedics, large capacity Fire Boats, Foam Rigs, Air Ops, HazMat and US&R, IMT’s, etc.

• Integration with LA Co. EMS System (Trauma), Public Health and Disaster Management
• Integration with private sector petroleum firefighting resources (SCIMO)

11
• Ability to field and sustain a complex organization quickly – Wildland based – Well institutionalized Mutual Aid – Intuitive understanding of ICS
(FIRESCOPE leads NIMS)

• Well practiced emergency decision making process
![Page 15: Marine Firefighting Concepts - CA State Lands Commission · 2018-09-24 · Marine Firefighting Concepts – A Local Perspective Prevention First ... Business Continuity • Fire Service](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060315/5f0bc9ea7e708231d432385e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
• Recognition Primed Decision Making – Well referenced and generally works well – Not deliberative
• Picture the problem - visualize a solution similar to previous event - then act and test.
• Most not aware of OODA Loop, but good commanders utilize it. (Observe, Orientation, Decide, Act → Loop)

• Requires some contextual consistency that may not be present in MFF environment
![Page 18: Marine Firefighting Concepts - CA State Lands Commission · 2018-09-24 · Marine Firefighting Concepts – A Local Perspective Prevention First ...

Institutionalized Emphasis on Business Continuity
• Fire Service has their own definition of “Salvage”.
• Initial actions at a commercial fire are to “protect the office”.

Needs / Unknowns
![Page 20: Marine Firefighting Concepts - CA State Lands Commission · 2018-09-24 · Marine Firefighting Concepts – A Local Perspective Prevention First ...

20
• Our concept of UC generally limited to working with other Fire Agencies – I count this as one of the major potential
problems “Who are you and why do you think you need to be at the CP?. This is my fire.”
![Page 21: Marine Firefighting Concepts - CA State Lands Commission · 2018-09-24 · Marine Firefighting Concepts – A Local Perspective Prevention First ...

21
• Tactical comparisons to High Rise, Airport, Confined Space and other typical events may provide false sense of knowledge when on board a burning ship. – Forcible Entry and Ventilation are two key
ones
• Little understanding of ship systems and stability issues.
![Page 22: Marine Firefighting Concepts - CA State Lands Commission · 2018-09-24 · Marine Firefighting Concepts – A Local Perspective Prevention First ... Business Continuity • Fire Service](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060315/5f0bc9ea7e708231d432385e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
• Local Fire Agencies have little control over Fire Prevention measures. – Distrust ship systems.
• Language and cultural differences with
crew.
![Page 23: Marine Firefighting Concepts - CA State Lands Commission · 2018-09-24 · Marine Firefighting Concepts – A Local Perspective Prevention First ... Business Continuity • Fire Service](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060315/5f0bc9ea7e708231d432385e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
23
• Poor understanding on ship registry limitations and Master’s role. – “You are in a foreign country”
• Poor understanding that our initial
actions may be best to augment crew’s efforts.
![Page 24: Marine Firefighting Concepts - CA State Lands Commission · 2018-09-24 · Marine Firefighting Concepts – A Local Perspective Prevention First ...

24
• Our application of ICS will be different than Privates and USCG – Ours is arguably much more organic and
flexible.
“Each org chart only represents one slice in time”

• Develop generally available training compliant to NFPA 1405 and 1005 – Two local efforts underway now
• Fixed facility and remote learning programs pending soon.
– Cal EMA, Cal Fire and Cal Maritime have work in progress
– Mature ICS concepts in place now

• Continued engagement with USCG – “Practice the plan”
• Better integration with Privates.
– Discussions to Green Cells to Functional Exercises
• Nothing presently in the works.

• Better notification plan – Traditional linear methods have key
limitations. – Pipeline “Leakwheel” better model

32
• Develop objective legal counsel for Fire Service
• Pre-establish non-operational elements of ICS such as Finance and Logs
![Page 33: Marine Firefighting Concepts - CA State Lands Commission · 2018-09-24 · Marine Firefighting Concepts – A Local Perspective Prevention First ...

33
• Pre-establish MACS – Multi-Agency Coordination System – Parallel and supportive to ICS – Achievable goal because of limited number
of jurisdictions and responders in a specific locale.

• “MACS provides the basic architecture for facilitating the allocation of resources, incident prioritization, coordination and integration of multiple agencies for large-scale incidents and emergencies”.

• Very different cultures between Municipal Firefighting and the Salvage Industry, however….

“Ship salvage is a science of vague assumptions based on debatable figures from inconclusive instruments, performed with equipment of problematical accuracy by persons of doubtful reliability and of questionable mentality.”
Quote from USN Salvage Engineer’s Handbook Vol.1 ,pg. vi (S0300-A8-HBK-010)
