'''Funding rationale:
* {{subpage|OFC}}

In recent years, it appears that the OFC is funding Rope Rescue courses that are not NFPA 1006.  We applaud this approach as NFPA 1006 rope rescue courses are substantially more costly (e.g. $18,640 for 15 NFPA 1006 students vs. $7,300 for 12 non-NFPA 1006).  In the alternative proposals we are submitting, the instructors of both the NFPA 1006 and non-NFPA 1006 course are the same.  The students learn the same content.  The only difference is the costs of the certification through the NFPA process.

PCSAR seeks funding for rope rescue training.  It is not clear whether a non-NFPA 1006 rope rescue course should be submitted under the category of “Specialized Technical” or “Rope Rescue” (which specifies NFPA 1006).  Or whether the OFC is now planning on only funding NFPA 1006 rope rescue courses.  To allow for all options, we submit in all 3 formats.  Any one will meet our need.

PCSAR's rope rescue team supports rescues in mountainous terrain and steep slope.  It assists the local fire department in incidents such as vehicles going off bridge decks into rivers or down embankments.  PCSAR has trained with local industry around their 50m high wind turbines.  A needs analysis is available online at http://tinyurl.com/bfjr63s

As always we will make course positions available to neighbouring groups.  Our planned instructors are certified 1006 instructors/evaluators but also very familiar with the teaching of rope rescue to SAR groups.
If funded, we anticipate running this course over 2 weekends (40 hours) in the Pincher Creek area.
