DISCUSSION OF ASH CRESCENT STREET FIRE INCIDENT
AND FIRE DEPARTMENT COMPUTER AIDED DISPATCH
SYSTEM
In the early morning hours of March 26, 1994, a structure fire occurred at
2116 Ash Crescent Street that claimed the lives of four children and caused
serious injuries to a fifth child and one adult. It was reported through the.
news media and other sources that the Fire Department's computer aided
dispatch (CAD) system had somehow failed in its function of dispatching fire
companies to the scene with the minimum delay possible. The purpose of
this informal report is to clarify what happened on the morning of March 26,
1994, what has been and is being done about the existing CAD system's
problems, and to discuss future plans for further CAD system modernization.
.Background
er The Fire Alarm Office moved into the Communications Building on Bolt
Street in April 1993. Only the computer consoles were new. The Alarm
Office moved its wallboard microcomputer, controllers, and modems to the
new site from the old site on Texas Street. The wallboard itself was left at
the old site. Efforts were underway at the time of the move to replace the
entire wallboard system, including the computer that controlled the
wallboard as soon as possible after the move to the Bolt Street facility.
During the time between the move to the new Communications Building and
the completion of the new wallboard installation, the Alarm Office has
experienced two major problems that adversely affect its operations. One is
that the computer that controls the wallboard.and handles the automated
dispatching of emergency calls to the fire stations, called the wallboard
microcomputer, is twelve years old and has become very unreliable. The unit
is prone to crash at any time and essentially shut down the automated
emergency call dispatching of fire companies, which forces the Alarm Office
to its backup procedures of telephoning fire stations to dispatch them on
emergency calls. The other problem is that keeping track of fire companies is
more difficult without the large wallboard display. Although an interim
status tracking system has been successfully developed, the larger display is
more efficient for the Alarm officers to use in their operations.

SYSTEM
It is important to note that the CAD system is a complex of old and new
technologies that are actually several separate components. Attachment 1
provides a graphic representation of the system and an explanation of the
dispatch process.
The Fire at 2116 Ash Crescent Street
According to 911, Fire Department, and Information Systems and Services
records, the time elapsed between the first 911 call reporting the fire to the
arrival of the first unit on the scene was 5 minutes and 2$ seconds. The
following is a breakdown of those minutes and seconds as the records
indicate. Please note that the 911 system's time is not synchronized to the
second with the Alarm Office's time. There are minor differences between
911 and Alarm Office records (for example, the 911 record indicates that the
first 911 call was passed to the Alarm Office at 02:23:20; the Alarm Office
reports receiving the transfer at 02:23:17). The elapsed times that were
identified in the 911 tape and printout records of the incident have been
converted to the Alarm Office's time for continuity.
Here is a summary of the elapsed time as reconstructed from 911, Fire, and
ISS records.
02:23:02 First call received by 911 call taker.
02:23:17 Fire Alarm Office takes transfer from 911.
02:23:29 Alarm Officer completes entry of incident into system.

SYSTEM _
A 911 call taker at the Communications Complex received the first call
reporting the fire from a neighbor, Martha Cook of 2125 Ash Crescent Street,
at 02:23:02 hours on the morning of March 26. Attachment 2 is a copy of the
911 log that shows all the 911 calls that were made by neighbors and the
times that they were made.starting at 20 m ngtas before the record of the
first call. The 911 log was checked as far back as 01:43:00 to make absolutely
certain that no call was received before the one at 02:23:02, and none were
found. The call was transferred to the Fire Alarm Office at 02:23:17 hours,
15 seconds after the 911 call taker took the first call, and within 12 seconds it
was entered into the system.
According to reports filed three days after this incident by the Alarm Office
personnel who were on duty the morning of March 26, the Alarm Office staff
had known for about 10 minutes that the Computer Aided Dispatch system
was totally down, which meant that both the manual and automatic tone
alerts to the fire stations did not function. One Alarm officer was on the
phone with ISS technical support attempting to get the system back on line
when the first call reporting the Ash Crescent fire came in.
Because the Alarm Office already knew that the system would not
automatically send the alert to the fire stations whose companies were to be
dispatched to the fire, two Alarm officers began calling the fire stations on
the telephone in accordance with established procedure in case of a CAD
system failure. Calls were made starting at 02:24:07 in the following order
by the two Alarm officers to the five units of the first alarm: Engines 5 and
14, Truck 8, Engine 4, and Battalion 1.
The 911 records indicate that it took 1 minute and 45 seconds for the Alarm
Office to call all 5 fire stations of the first alarm and dispatch them to the
fire. These calls were made while answering four additional 911 calls
reporting the Ash Crescent fire. This performance closely corresponds to
what would have been achieved had the automatic system been functioning.
The reason for such good performance is that the Alarm Office knew that the
automatic and manual tone alert systems were not functioning when the call
came in and acted quickly to implement established backup procedures. At
this paint in the incident, 2 minutes and 51 seconds had elapsed since the
first 911 call reporting the fire was received.

Engine 5, the first unit to reach the scene, indicated by radio that it was
responding to the call at 02:25 hours (the record does not indicate seconds for
this). Engine 5 reached the scene at 02:28:30 according to ISS and Fire
Department records, no more than 3.5 minutes from the time that Engine 5
indicated that it was responding to the fire.
Attachment 3, which is a summary of the Fire Department's response to the
incident, indicates that the estimated arrival time for Engine 5 was 3.3
minutes, but this time is based on the distance from Station 5 to the center of
the fire box, which is the way the Fire Department subdivides the city to
measure estimated response times. 2116 Ash Crescent is about two blocks
south of the focal point of the fire box, and the Fire Department estimates
that the actual estimated response time from Station 5 to 2116 Ash Crescent
Street is 3.8 minutes. Engine 5 arrived on the scene no more than 3.5
minutes from responding to the fire, within the estimated response time and
within the 4 minute City-wide goal established by the Fire Department.
Engine 4, the second unit on scene, arrived between 30 and 90 seconds after
Engine 5 (again the record does not indicate seconds). The crew of Engine 5
reported that Engine 4 personnel were moving up to support them with a
second line as they began their attack on the fire, which would indicate that
their arrival was soon after Engine 5. Attachment 4 is a series of maps that
shows the location of the incident in relation to Station 5, Station 4, and the
focal point of the fire box.
The Station 5 personnel who responded to the fire reported that at least part
of the fire station alert system did activate in their station. The lights came
on automatically like they would under normal circumstances, although no
one remembers hearing the tone alert. No lights or tones were activated at
any of the other 4 fire stations dispatched for the first alarm. There is no
complete explanation for this, though it is suspected that the efforts of the
Alarm Office personnel trying to restart the wallboard microcomputer had a
fortunate but momentary success. The effect of the lights coming on at
Station 5 was that the crew of Engine 5 was already up when the telephone
call came to dispatch them about 20 seconds later, saving additional precious
seconds on their response time to the fire.

AND FIRE DEPARTMENT COMPUTER AIDED DISPATCH
SYSTEM
The Fire Department's investigation of the fire at 2116 Ash Crescent Street
revealed that the fire started in the kitchen in an electric skillet. The
electrical service into the house was not properly grounded, which left the
voltage at any outlet in the house to fluctuate freely up to 240 volts. This
would be sufficient to cause the fire regardless of whether the skillet had
been left on or not. The lack of required safety catches on the window
burglar bars prevented any escape from the sleeping area of the house, and
the fire quickly spread to block the exterior doors. Finally, the house had no
smoke alarm, which prevented an early warning of the fire to the sleeping
occupants.
There is no way,to determine with any certainty whether any of the fatalities
that occurred in the Ash Crescent Street fire could have been avoided if the
first units' arrivals had come sooner than they did. The lack of a smoke
detector was probably the single most important factor in the loss of life. It
is the only thing that could have possibly saved them all since the burglar
bars prevented escape from the sleeping area windows.
CAD System .Problems
The wallboard microcomputer, which is twelve years old, has been the source
of constant and numerous problems in the Fire Department's Alarm Office
since it moved to the Bolt Street facility in April 1993. The unit is obsolete
and obtaining parts for it is very difficult. The wallboard micro is prone to
.crash for a variety of reasons, most of which are related to the age of the
equipment. The process of restarting the machine, a process called
"rebooting," is cumbersome and time-consuming, and the process is usually
carried out by Alarm Office personnel while consulting with Information
Systems and Services technicians on the telephone. The effect of the
wallboard micro's crashing is to lose the automated alerting of the fire
stations. Alarm Office personnel must then go to a manual backup system
that requires them to call each fire station for each call to dispatch station
personnel.

SYSTEM
Funding was appropriated from the Capital Projects Reserve Fund in August
1993 (1\4&C-G 10307) to replace the wallboard micro and purchase a new
wallboard system. The new system utilizes video and computer technology for
the wallboard that is separate from the old wallboard micro. The wallboard
micro itself will be replaced with a faster and more reliable personal
computer system that will operate only the automated alert system to the fire
stations. The purchase of the equipment and software necessary to assemble
the new system was approved on the same date as the funding, but as of this
date the new equipment and software have not been installed. Delays were
encountered in processing the payment for the first phase of the project to the
provider of the new wallboard , a Florida company. In the interim, the
company won a much larger contract for its services with the State of Florida,
the result of which has been further delays in the installation of the new
wallboard system. The system is now scheduled to be installed in mid-May.
The replacement of the wallboard microcomputer should eliminate the
problems that the current unit has caused. The new wallboard system will
also allow the Alarm Office to return to its normal operating routine.
Future Considerations
What has yet to be addressed in any systematic fashion is the Fire
Department's CAD system as a whole. Replacing the wallboard
microcomputer is regarded as an interim remedy that should rid the system
of its current problems. For the future, other components of the system, such
as the fire station alert system, will need to be replaced as the availability of
parts for its components gradually disappears. Opportunities also exist to
improve other operational aspects of the Fire Department when this is done,
such as using personal computers in the.fire stations to both operate the alert
system and to transition to a paperless incident report filing system, a
process that now requires the filing and microfilming of more 40,000 paper
reports per year.

AND FIRE DEPARTMENT COMPUTER AIDED DISPATCH
SYSTEM
It is estimated by the Information Systems and Services Department that the
existing fire station alert system will continue to be reliable for at least two
more years, barring any unforeseen problems. The company that originally
made the primary component of the system currently in operation in the fire
stations is no longer in business, and generic parts are now being purchased
for maintenance and repairs. The estimate of the system's remaining life is
based on the expectation that the availability of parts for the fire station
system components will become a serious concern by fiscal year 1996-97.
An inter-departmental task group comprised of Fire Department,
Information Systems and Services, and Fiscal Services staff will spend the
coming months developing a better CAD system and to determine the costs
for such a project. Presently, while the hardware costs can be at least
estimated, the software development costs are not estimable because it is not
known haw much of the development will have to be contracted outside of the
City, a much more expensive proposition. It is expected that the plans for
completing the CAD system modernization will be ready for implementation
in fiscal year 1996-97 if not before.
t
Conclusions
One component of the Fire Department's Computer Aided Dispatch System,
the wallboard microcomputer, did fail on the morning of March 26, 1994. The
Fire Alarm Office was aware of the system failure about 10 minutes before
the first 911 call reporting the fire on Ash Crescent Street was received, so
the failure of the system did not result in delayed dispatching of the first
alarm units to the scene. The total time that elapsed between the first 911
call and the arrival of the first unit on scene was 5 minutes and 28 seconds.
It took 1 minute and 45 seconds to call all 5 fire stations involved in the first
alarm and dispatch them to the scene, a time that corresponds favorably to
the automated system. The response time of Engine 5, the first unit, was no
more than 3.5 minutes with an expected response time of 3.8 minutes. The
most significant contributing factors to the fatalities, according to the Fire
Department's investigation of the incident, were the lack of escape routes
�m from the sleeping area of the house and the absence of a smoke alarm.

The wallboard microcomputer is scheduled for replacement in mid-May,
1994. Replacement of the unit should prevent the majority of system failures
similar to those experienced during the Ash Crescent incident. The staff is
now working to plan an integrated modernization of the Fire Department's
CAD system that is expected to be ready for implementation in fiscal year
1996-97 if not before.

Attachment I (Page 1 of 3)
EXPLANATION OF FIRE COMPUTER AIDED DISPATCH SYSTEM (CAD)
1. Call received from 911 call-taker. The 911 system generates the telephone
number and address of the caller through ANI (Automatic Number
Identification) and ALI (Automatic Location Identification).
2. The 911 call-taker transfers the fire or EMT emergency call to the--Fire
Alarm Office. The 911 system sends the call information, including ANI and
ALI data, to the City Hall mainframe computer and to the Alarm officer's
console in the Alarm Office.
3. The Alarm officer takes the call, determines the type of incident, and
enters the information into the computer console. The computer determines
how many fire companies to dispatch on the call by the type of incident. Once
this information is entered into the system, it goes back to the City Hall
mainframe and then back out to the Alarm Office, to the wallboard
microcomputer.
4. The Alarm officer pushes a button on his console that sends the manual
tone alert through the wallboard microcomputer and out over the radio system
to the fire stations about to be dispatched. The message simply announces
the station number with the tone as a warning to stand by for an incoming
dispatch.
5. The wallboard microcomputer receives the dispatch information from the
City Hall mainframe and formats two messages for each dispatch. Both
messages will be sent by radio. The first message, which includes the
automatic tone alert, is the one that alerts the fire station that it has a call.
The second message is text data that prints out details of the destination at
the fire station.
6. One by one, the wallboard micro sends the dispatch messages to the RDC-
95, which is the interface between the wallboard micro and the radio system.
There is a 7-second delay between the broadcast of each message.
7. The Alarm office dispatcher listens for a series of noises through a speaker
at his console that indicate the wallboard micro has sent the dispatch
message to the fire station. The dispatcher then voices the call information to
the fire station over the radio. There is a 30 second or so delay for each
message sent before the dispatcher can use the radio. The information is
heard over the fire station's public address system. The same information will
print out on the printer at the fire station when the second message is
received.
S. When the first message sent by the wallboard micro is received at the fire
station, the fire station's alert system sounds an alarm tone, opens the
Attachment I (Page 2 of 3)
overhead doors, and turns on the lights of the fire station. The fire station
system sends an acknowledgement via radio back to the Alarm office to
indicate that the message has been received. When the first message is
confirmed by the fire station system as received, the second message is sent.
The second message is printed out by the fire station system for the fire
station personnel to take with them on the call. The printout contains the
destination, map coordinates, and any special information about the site, such
as hazardous materials storage.
9. If the first message is not acknowledged within 6 seconds by the fire
station system, the wallboard micro sends it again. If the second message is
not acknowledged, then the message"DISPATCH FAILED" appears on the
Alarm officer's console. The Alarm of5cer will then immediately call the fire
station on the telephone to dispatch the call.
10. The fire station personnel push a button on the fire station system that
sends manual confirmation to the Alarm Office that the fire company is
responding to the call. Additionally, the responding unit radios to the Alarm
Office that it is responding as it leaves the station.
