What determines the priority of response during multiple alarm activations?

The priority of response during multiple alarm activations is determined by the Alarmed Facility Priority Listing. This listing is established to ensure that response resources are allocated based on the significance and urgency of the incident being reported. Facilities that are deemed higher risk or critical in nature may receive priority attention over others that might be less urgent or less likely to pose an immediate threat to life or property.

Using a structured priority listing allows response teams to make informed decisions during situations where multiple alarms are activated, ensuring that their efforts are directed where they are needed most. Factors included in this prioritization can involve the type of facility, historic data about incidents at that facility, and potential consequences of a delayed response. This systematic approach helps to effectively manage limited resources and ensures the safety and security of the community.
