Victoria SES as Control Agency Incident Responses, 2013 - 2014

Brief description

Incident responses categorised as "Control Agency" responses are those in which Victoria SES assumes control of an incident. This is generally a pre-determined response based on the Unit attending and / or the type of incident being attended to.

This dataset provides monthly "Control Agency" response totals for the financial year 2013 - 2014 and details the type of event attended such as "Storm", "Flood", "Tsunami", "Earthquake", "Control Centre", "Road Rescue" or "Rescue Other".

For each response a Victoria SES crew was dispatched. Tasks may or may not have subsequently been undertaken in relation to each dispatch. The figures preclude multiple crew attendances at any one incident.
