Regional Collapse Team - Orange/Sullivan

[helicopper 1,050]

Regional Collapse Team (Goshen FD, Mechanicstown FD, & Monticello FD)

I've seen mention of this in a couple of threads now and was wondering if anyone can elaborate on what it is, how it is staffed/equipped, what they're doing, etc?

Monticello to Goshen is like a 45 minute ride, isn't it? How does the team cover such a vast area with those kinds of response times? How did they arrive at these three FD's for the team?

Thanks in advance for any input.

Its not truly a regional response team. Just that these departments are the only departments in the Orange/Ulster/Sullivan area that stepped up, bought the equipment, and trained their members. They have it set up so that when ever 1 is called they all respond.

P.s. Ace did you really sit there and type out all that?
