In 2019 a project was initiated by the department's officer corps to update our operational SOG/SOPs. The Blue Card Incident Command System and established Lake County Fire Chiefs SOGs were utilized as guidelines. The project was completed but the updates have yet to be formally adopted by the department. That being the case, the information is best served as training material. The button below is a direct link to the 18 documents. Feel free to review the information and please forward any thoughts to the Division of Training.
