BART Availability
As we approach the fire season it is once again important to keep your availability up to date in BART. Whilst there are a number of different (and confusing) options in BART, only three are of interest.
- Available (Green) - able to turn out at a moment's notice;
- Delayed (Yellow) - available for second / relief crew duties;
- Unavailable (Red) - not available for any duties.
Maintaining an accurate record of your availability is an important part of the Brigade's operational readiness, and helps simplify the organisation of crews.
Christmas Period Availability
Whilst we head into the fire season, it is also the time of year when people like to take holidays. It is kindly requested that if you are intending to be away for a period of time over the next few months that you inform either your Team Leader or Adrian.
