The San Diego County Mutual Aid Agreement is made pursuant to the California Emergency
Service Act, Chapter 7 of Division 1 of the Government Code (commencing with Section
8550). It is an exercise of the mutual aid powers authorized by Section 9616 thereof
and is intended to supplement, not replace, other mutual aid agreements which exist
between various entities in San Diego County.
In this agreement each party agrees to furnish fire protection personnel, resources,
services, and facilities to render such fire protection and rescue services to each
and every other party to this agreement as may be necessary to prevent and combat
any type of disaster of a lesser nature than a disaster requiring a declaration of
a state of extreme emergency within the limits of the County of San Diego.
The primary revisions in this Mutual Aid Agreement concern the definition of the types
of agencies that are eligible to be members of the agreement as well as the procedure
to be followed in accepting new members. Secondary revisions include minor changes
in language intended to establish greater clarity.
