RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt a Resolution authorizing out of state travel for Fire Department personnel to attend the 7th Annual

ITEM EXPLANATION:
Consistent with City Council Policy No. 2 (Travel Policy), the Carlsbad Fire Department is requesting
authorization to allow three personnel from the ranks of Battalion Chief to Captain to attend the 7th
Annual Hazard Zone Management Conference held in Phoenix, Arizona on June 9-10, 2016. All-Hazard
Incident Management was adopted by the North Zone (North San Diego County agencies) last year as a
way to address the changing environment of the fire service. This year's conference is designed to
provide All-Hazard Incident Management instructors with updates on hazmat command, firefighter
' mayday, active shooter, and response to other violent incidents. This information will be brought back to
the rest of the organization.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost for three fire department personnel to attend the two-day conference, including registration,
travel and accommodations is approximately $3,300.00, which will be paid for using the Fire
Department's budget.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, this request does not constitute a "project" within the
meaning of CEQA in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change in the environment,
or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and therefore does not require
environmental review.
EXHIBITS:
1. A Resolution authorizing out of state travel for Fire Department personnel to attend the 7th Annual
Hazard Zone management Conference held in Phoenix, Arizona on June 9-10, 2016.
