*Simultaneous/Overlapping calls are Emergency calls for service that occur while firefighters are responding to other calls for Emergency Service.
2016, 2017, & 2018 overlap rates are high due to staffing additional units for OHV emergency response. 2020 is especially of concern as staffing was low and no additional units could be staffed, forcing a single unit to respond to multiple “back-to-back” or simultaneous calls for emergency service.
