Welcome from the PresidentsWelcome from the Presidents
August 2013
Welcome to the South Atlantic Fire Rescue Expo and the Annual Conference of the North Carolina State Firemen’s Association. Our Board and Staff are very excited to have you here. We were happy to have had over 4000 people attend last year’s conference, here in Raleigh, as we celebrated the 125th year anniversary of the State Firemen’s Association.
This Expo and Conference just gets better and better every year, from educational opportunities, exhibits and displays, the memorial service, parade, special events and celebrations to renewing friendships and connections. Please check our schedules often so as to not miss a thing. Although the outstanding Raleigh Convention Center is the center point of our activities there are also events planned in other areas of downtown, don’t miss them.
We hope you all have a wonderful time here. Please let any of the staff, officers, or volunteers know if there is anything we can do to make this a great experience.

Schedule at a GlanceKeynote Speaker
Schedule at a GlanceSpecial Guest Randolph Mantooth
“Remembering Why” Modern technology has given emergency re-sponders incredible tools that help save more lives more than ever before. The Internet and social media have allowed us to instantly share ideas and information with others from all over the world. Johnny and Roy would be envious. Or would they? Have computers, smart phones and all our cutting-edge gadgets caused us to overlook the fact there’s a living, breathing hu-man being in front of us - someone who needs eye contact, a reassuring voice, or a trembling hand held? That’s what made Johnny and Roy, and the professionals they portrayed, so special to millions around the globe.
No, Johnny and Roy didn’t have all the high-tech, 21st century hardware we have today, but they had compassion for their patients, and pas-sion for their calling.
Randy’s presentation will remind us that it’s not so much about the “business” as it is about people. Don’t miss his inspiring keynote address that will lead us back to the heart of why we do what we do. Randolph will host fund raising autograph sessions at the following time.

Wednesday, August 7 - 9:00am - 4:00pm
Chief 101 Tim Pope, A. C. Rich Tuesday, August 6, 2013 6:00pm – 10:00pm
Wednesday, August 7, 2013 9:00am – 4:00pm Room 305B
This class consists of several programs that together will satisfy the 9s inspection criteria as specified by the North Carolina Administrative Code.
The primary objective of the course is to inform current and future chief officers of the various aspects and complexities surrounding the operations and organization of North Carolina fire departments.
Flashover Simulator Cleveland Community College Brown Emergency Training Center Drager Flashover Simulator Staff
Wednesday, August 7, 2013 9:00am – 4:00pm Keeter Training Center
Observe fire behavior and the signs that lead up to flashover.
Phase one training from Drager Swede Survival Systems will allow you to observe and experience in a controlled environment how fire develops and grows up to and through the flashover stage. Learn how ventilation and hose streams can control a flashover. You will gain knowledge and skill in recognizing these situations and
learn when it is time to get out of the structure. You will better understand the events that lead up to a flashover as well as how firefighters are responsible for creating flashovers.
Requirements: Full turnout gear, including SCBA (bottle must have current hydrostatic date).
Students should hydrate with water prior to the class to aid in the prevention of dehydration.
Instructors: Cleveland Community College Brown Emergency Training Center Drager Flashover Simulator Staff Emergency Response to Hybrid and Electric VehiclesCyrus Dastur, Billy Leach, Rich Cregar Electric Transportation Consultants, Advanced Energy
Wednesday, August 7, 2013 9:00am – 4:00pm Room 305A
In addition to tens of thousands of conventional hybrid-electric vehicles currently driving on North Carolina roads, NC now also has over 1,000 plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs), which entered the market in 2010.
PEVs have much larger batteries than conventional hybrids, and PEV batteries use a lithium ion chemistry that can present a greater fire hazard than the nickel-metal hydride batteries used in conventional hybrids.
The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration has deemed PEVs to be as safe as or safer than conventional vehicles, but PEVs can present unique challenges to rescuers responding to an accident due to the presence of the large battery and associated electronics, in addition to the potential for silent powered operation like conventional hybrids.
This workshop will provide first responders with both an engaging presentation for understanding of electric vehicle technology along with hands-on training on complete PEVs and hybrid vehicle components.
There will not be any actual extrication, but this is an awareness course that will provide the participants with full knowledge of how to render these vehicles safe and feasible to extricate if necessary.

Friday, August 9 - 9:00am - 11:30amEngine Company ExcellenceRichard Ray
Friday, August 9, 2013 9:00am – 11:30am Room 306B
Every fire department in America has an engine as part of its arsenal to combat fires.
Whether we are in rural America or the big city, the engine company serves as the backbone for fire suppression.
The sole responsibility of the engine company is to extinguish fires.
In order to accomplish that task there has to be an understanding of some fundamental concepts, basic equipment, and training.
The practices and concepts taught will be based on successful as well as unsuccessful experiences on the fireground and nationally recognized engine company practices.
The student will learn some basic concepts for hose loads, appliance selection, and the basic tools that the engine company should have and utilize.
These practices and concepts taught are effective, safe, and inexpensive.
The challenges faced by firefighters become more dynamic each and every day.
The obstacles that firefighters overcome and the level of professionalism displayed are what make the fire service what we know today.
The desire to train and become proficient in engine company operations is the backbone of the fire service.
This class is simply designed to teach and share with the participant’s ways to improve engine company operations.

Friday, August 9 - 11:45am - 1:15pmLeading the Transition in Volunteer and Combination Fire DepartmentsRon Cheves, Donna Black, Dan Eggleston
Friday, August 9, 2013 11:45am – 1:15pm Room 301A This presentation was developed to update The Red Ribbon Report written in 2005 by members from the Volunteer & Combination Officers Section of the International Association of Fire Chiefs.
As the demand for services outpace a department’s ability to deliver service, many departments begin the natural transition from fully volunteer to some form of a combination system.
The pace of the transition and problems encountered during the process varies and often depends on the leadership’s ability to recognize and deal with change.
Volunteer departments have a number of service delivery options before considering hiring their first paid employee. However, leaders must know when the transition process must begin.
There is no standard approach to transition from a volunteer to a combination department, but there are a variety of strategies that have been successful in many communities.
Through an interactive process including case studies, this session will share several of those successful strategies and allow participants to engage in discussions to determine how they may apply experiences to address their department needs.
Recognize the signals of change that would warrant the transition. Understand the issues and obstacles from an internal and external perspective resulting from the decision to transition.
Identify the team members that would be involved in the assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation phases of transition. Be aware of the common pitfalls and issues surrounding the process to transition.
Preparing for and Managing Incidents in the Information Age: Geographic Information Systems and the Fire Service Glenn Clapp, Kyle Hoover High Point Fire Department Friday, August 9, 2013 11:45am – 1:15pm Room 301B In the current age of information technology, fire departments and other emergency response agencies can utilize geographic information systems (GIS) technology to enhance preparedness measures for, response actions at, and recovery activities following incidents of all sizes and types.
In this workshop, you can discover how available applications can be modified to suit departmental needs and participate in an interactive discussion that demonstrates the use and development of such modifications from both emergency response and GIS professional viewpoints. HazMat Management – The Role of the Group SupervisorJoel B. Wood Captain, Greensboro Fire Department, Special Operations Division
Friday, August 9, 2013 11:45am – 1:15pm Room 306C The class will consist of the HazMat Group Supervisors role at the incident from activation to termination.
While the role is not top level management in the organizational structure, it is one of the most vital positions to a successful incident outcome.
Concentration will be on industry regulations and standards, documentation, health and safety, resource management, and risk management.
Financial Management of Fire and EMS AgenciesWilliam Jenaway, PhD Vice President, VFIS
Friday, August 9, 2013 11:45am – 1:15pm Room 306A Unfortunately, losses as a result of employee dishonesty are increasing.
ESO Funds are often at risk of misuse and embezzlement. This type of loss not only disrupts the ESO but families and communities as well. The damage to an ESO’s reputation in the community can hinder fund raising efforts and good will and can be extremely difficult to repair.
The loss of funds can jeopardize high-quality response, equipment and services to the community.
This session is intended to discuss the issues, concerns, and best practices related to managing the financial systems of fire departments.
Emergency service organizations take a variety of steps to protect their members and their property.
They guard against injury with protective gear and secure equipment to prevent damage. Yet two less-visible assets also need their attention: their funds and their reputation in the community.
Preventive measures, early detection and appropriate insurance are extremely important. Initially a member may intend to borrow a small amount of money that he or she expects to repay. When such an act goes undetected, repeated theft may not be far behind.
Without oversight, this type of loss can go undetected for months or even years. Fortunately, there are steps that ESOs can take to protect department funds – and the people who handle them.

Arrive Safely…Save LivesBill Tricarico Senior Risk Management Consultant
Friday, August 9, 2013 1:30pm – 3:00pm Room 301A Each year about 16,000 fire apparatus are involved in traffic collisions in the United States.
The toll from these crashes result in over 1,000 firefighter injuries, the second leading cause of firefighter line of duty death, untold amounts of property damage, and civilian death and injuries.
In addition, firefighters become deterred from their primary mission to save lives.
Using actual videos of emergency service vehicles crashes and near misses, Arrive Safely…Save Lives explores the dangers involved with emergency vehicle operations, the consequences of poor operations, potentially including criminal charges, and suggestions to assist agencies in arriving safely and saving lives.
It is meant to adjust attitudes regarding the use of lights and sirens and speed of operation of both emergency and personal vehicles.
If you think that somehow your department is immune from a catastrophic incident such as this, you are wrong.
Every department faces similar dangers and the time to learn how to avoid them is before a devastating event occurs. Remember your service is vital, but if you don’t arrive safely, you can’t save lives. First Responders RACE to Save Lives!Lisa Monk, MSN, RN, CPHQ Director RACE CARS, Duke Clinical Research Institute
Clark Tyson
Friday, August 9, 2013 1:30pm – 3:00pm Room 301B
Nationally, less than 10% of victims survive OOHCA and in NC less than 5% of victims survive.
Much of the focus for improvement efforts is on pre-hospital care.
Enhanced dispatch to provide early recognition and compression only CPR by bystanders gives the First Responder and EMS agencies a better chance of finding a viable patient at the scene.
First Responder’s role is critical in the outcomes of these victims.

Assistant Director, Human Clinical/Research Laboratory at Colorado State University
Friday, August 9, 2013 1:30pm – 4:45pm Room 302A
Rehabilitation on the fire ground continues to be an important part of operations.
Heat and cold stress can lead to firefighter disability and death; increase injury potential of crews at scene and decreased effectiveness of crews for the remainder of the shift.
It contributes to overexertion/strain and metabolic acidosis, which has been identified as the leading immediate cause of fatal injuries.
Creating and implementing an “expandable” rehabilitation plan for a variety of responses enhances firefighter performance and could save lives and protect personnel.
Having those cases of sports drinks for your incidents is only a part of the solution.
This presentation will review the science behind cooling and rehabilitation strategies and provide you with a toolkit of several models that are currently employed.
We will show you how to evaluate your needs and develop a model for your own department.

Aggressive IgnoranceDoug Cline
Friday, August 9, 2013 1:30pm – 4:45pm Room 306B Why are we still getting firefighters killed or injured?
Why do we do, what we normally do.
Are you calling yourself or department aggressive?
Are you really aggressive or are you reckless?
These and more toe stomping topics will be covered during this session.
If you don’t have tough skin or steel toe shoes or even a weak heart you probably need to check your insurance because this program is designed to talk hard core straight talk of what we are doing that is not really the right things to do.
We triple-dog-dare you to come to this program. Fire Department FinancingBill Carter, Loren Pittman, Sherrod Warwick LGFCU
Friday, August 9, 2013 3:15pm – 4:45pm Room 306C Overview of lease programs and the questions every department needs to know to ask when entering the truck/building financing process.
“Headquarters, We are On Scene” – When the Pre-plan and Emergency Plan are Never Used in Unison Until That Day Timothy Henshaw Assistant Fire Marshal/Fire Protection Engineer, Raleigh Fire Department
Friday, August 9, 2013 3:15pm – 4:45pm Room 202
This training will cover issues that result from fire department pre-plans that don’t take into account tenant/occupant emergency response plans.
While fire departments do a good job at creating pre-plans, many departments never cross reference them with the tenant’s plans to extinguish the fire or for their plans to evacuate.
Unfortunately, these issues are never noted until the first engine arrives on scene and it’s too late.
This class will bring these issues up and address steps on how to ensure pre-plans and emergency plans don’t conflict. Get Real With Your RetirementPatrick McGinnis, James Buntine The Standard Friday, August 9, 2013 3:15pm – 4:45pm Room 203 How to maximize your retirement plan with the NCSFA.

The New NCRRS Grading ScheduleA.C. Daniels
Saturday, August 10, 2013 10:00am – 11:30am Ballroom A The new Fire Suppression Rating Schedule (FSRS) contains the criteria North Carolina department of Insurance uses in reviewing the fire suppression capabilities of individual communities.
The schedule measures the major elements of a community’s fire suppression system and develops a numerical grade called a Public Protection Classification.
The new schedule continues to evaluate the three major categories of fire suppression: fire department, emergency communications, and water supply.
In addition, it includes a new Community Risk Reduction section that recognizes community efforts to reduce losses through fire prevention, public fire safety education, and fire investigation.

The North Carolina State Firemen’s Association would like to recognize the following companies and organizations for their generous support:
Paul Miller began working as the Executive Director of the NCSFA in 1990. The state of North Carolina has seen a tremendous amount growth in twenty-three years, growing from 6.6 million to nearly 10 million residents in 2013. Along with this unprecedented growth came expansion of North Carolina’s fire service, both in terms of size as well as an all-hazards approach to service delivery. To support and enrich that growth, Paul has tirelessly worked on behalf of North Carolina’s firefighters on the local, state and federal levels.
The prominence of the North Carolina State Firemen’s Association in the national spectrum is directly attributable to Paul’s professional and personal efforts. As you see Paul around this year’s Conference, please take a moment to let him know how much his leadership, vision and dedication to North Carolina’s firefighters have meant. Join us on Saturday night, August 10 as we honor retiring Executive Director Paul F. Miller during the Annual Banquet. Immediately following the Banquet is the President’s Reception. Thank you Paul!
