Prepare better identification for Overhead team members

  • SAR workers, other agencies, family members and media need to

be able to quickly identify the appropriate overhead team members==Status:==

  • 2004-06-15 BoardCommittee accepts in principle recommendations

of PreplanCommittee. Requests PreplanCommittee identifies cost and source of suitable equipment and present those recommendations back to Board.==Tasks:==

  • Consider hats or vests (done: vests)* Recommend what should be purchased / made (done)* Review supplied vests (done)* Identify source and cost of suitable equipment.
  • Consider Lone Pine in Cardston that did our jackets / shirts /

hats.* Invite other SAR teams / disaster services to go on bulk purchase.==Recommendations:==

  • 2 sets of vests (1 each colour) be obtained. 1 set in the

SARCAR. Another set at the firehall.* True colours be used: Yellow, Blue, Red, and Green. Strong colours similar to the folders used in the overhead files. Of the existing road vests, only blue was true colour.

  • consider (perhaps custom made) light cotton soft material* need some reflective component on front and back (but does not

need to be a lot) There was some concern about chaffing when worn over short sleeves.

  • need large wording on the back, perhaps smaller wording on

front Yellow: Search Manager

Blue: Planning

Red: Logistics

Green: Operations
