Abstract: Fire statistics show that fire-related deaths and property loss is higher in rural communities when compared to urban communities. Even though fire department performance is an important aspect in preventing fire-related incidents, there are no standardized indicators that these departments are required to follow. A review of eleven rural communities in California showed that volunteer firefighters lacked the training recommended by the California State Fire Marshal. Most of the fire stations were in fair to poor condition and required significant repairs to make them operational. The ISO ratings received by the eleven communities indicated that most of the fire stations did not possess adequate fire station facilities, water supplies, communication services, and staffing levels. These communities indicated that they referred to NFPA 1720 for guidance in evaluating performance. They also referred to State Fire Marshal requirements for training. However, because NFPA 1720 recommendation[s] are not mandated , the fire departments do not always follow the criteria recommended. Because the State Fire Marshal does not stipulate a deadline for training requirements, many fire departments disregard this requirement. For fire departments to adhere to identified indicators, they need to be specified in the community ordinance or outlined as a requirement in the emergency preparedness plan for the community.

Fire service managers in the City of Rockford, Illinois were concerned with the effectiveness of reporting methods of work performed by fire department employees. Historical reporting relied upon the count of number of calls made as a key measure of work performed. The city's financial accounting system reported work performance according to the assigned station of companies or personnel. The accounting system relied only on the number of calls as a measure of performance. Two problems are evident from the reporting and accounting methods used. First, fire department employees perform many more tasks than simply responding on calls. Secondly, there is a wide variance in the amount of work performed or services delivered on individual calls. Recommendations were developed to use standardized methods to report various types of tasks performed. These methods should not only report the quantity of tasks performed but also a measure of the resources (i.e. time or operating costs). The primary accounting of costs should be redefined to recognize the nature of service performed rather than the location of a fire station. Station location could be a secondary accounting measure. Primary measures should include items like fire suppression, emergency medical service, public fire education, fire prevention, and rescue. [STAR#: 3565]
