The two fire departments featured on this
website demonstrate that it does not matter, if you have a small nor
large, paid nor volunteer, it is possible for a fire department to have
the highest possible ISO class rating.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The count of ISO Class 1 fire departments is
increasing, and many fire departments have been working to improve their
ratings, but it does puzzle me in the light of the potential savings,
millions and even billions of dollars, why don't more fire departments
have higher ratings?
