STATE OF CALIFORNIATHE RESOURCES AGENCY ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER, Governor DEPARTMENT OF FORESTRY AND FIRE PROTECTION Announced Change that requires Fire Training OFFICE OF THE STATE FIRE MARSHAL State Fire Training P.O. Box 944246 SACRAMENTO, CA 94244-2460 (916) 327-2129 Website: www.fire.ca.gov June 3, 2009 Registered EMT-I Instructors Fire Technology Coordinators Regional Accredited/Local Academy Directors Re: Change to State Fire Training’s EMT-I Training Program State Fire Training regrets to announce that a recent legal interpretation from the EMS Authority will limit the scope of our EMT-I Training program to fire safety personnel only. Currently anyone can attend our EMT-I Basic and/or refresher courses; however, we only certify as EMTs those individuals with a fire service affiliation. Effective July 1, 2009, only fire safety personnel can receive a State Fire Training EMT-I course completion certificate. “Fire safety personnel” is defined as an individual who is employed by a fire department, fire district, or special district. In this interpretation, volunteer fire fighters performing suppression/prevention duties are to be considered employees. What this means for instructors: Verification must be made in advance of the class that students are fire safety personnel. If non-fire safety personnel are to attend the class, approval of the training program must also be obtained through the local EMS Agency and those students would receive a locally approved course completion certificate in lieu of a State Fire Training course completion certificate. In addition to this change, we also want to remind instructors that we have adopted Pearson’s Emergency Care, 11th Edition as our EMT curriculum. State Fire Training registered instructors may obtain an instructor guide by contacting Al Bricker with Pearson Publishing and providing him with your instructor number. He can be contacted via phone at (970) 356-1002 or via email at [email protected]. If you have any questions regarding the information contained in this notice, please contact Christy Owen, Manager of Certification and Registration at (916) 327-2129. * New Fire Department staff Can Teach this Class or get Fire Training Instructor (see Handout) This will Generate Additional Revenue for Youth Workforce and Cloverdale .

- 41. Press Democrat Published:Friday, August 28, 2009 at 7:13 p.m County residents will drive 23 miles per person per day in 2035, up from 17 miles per day in 2006, the forecast said. Congestion will worsen, with people stuck in traffic for 30 hours per person a year, compared with 26 hours in 2006. Zane disputed those estimates, questioning whether ABAG considered the impact of the Cloverdale to Larkspur commuter train, known as SMART, scheduled to begin running in 2014. The 70-mile train route, with bicycle lanes and buses tied in, is intended to reduce congestion. “I think that’s what we’re all hoping for,” Zane said. Road dust will increase, as well, with 6.45 tons emitted per day in 2035, up from 5.14 tons in 2006, the forecast said. With 3,000 more residents expected by 2035, Cloverdale’s projected 34 percent growth rate is twice that of larger cities like Santa Rosa and Petaluma and nearly three times the rate forecast for the county as a whole. Let’s Change this Prediction, Let’s make Cloverdale known for its “New Rhythm”
