52:14E-14 Preparation, adoption of local fire mutual aid plans.

4. Each municipality or fire district, as the case may be, in this State shall prepare and adopt a local fire mutual aid plan. The plan shall set forth policies and procedures to coordinate the effective utilization of fire service resources in those instances where the implementation of the local fire mutual aid plan is determined to be necessary or appropriate. Each local fire mutual aid plan shall be based upon the planning criteria, objectives, requirements, responsibilities and concepts of operation essential for the implementation of all necessary and appropriate protective or remedial measures to be taken in response to emergency incidents. Each local fire mutual aid plan shall be adopted no later than one year after the effective date of this act. Following adoption, each municipality or fire district shall file a copy of its local fire mutual aid plan with the county fire coordinator. In any instance where a local fire mutual aid plan provides for the provision of assistance and fire service resources by or to a political subdivision of another state, the municipality or fire district also shall file a copy of that plan with the State fire coordinator. Each local fire mutual aid plan shall be reviewed and updated every two years.
