SLABÁ, Miroslava
A lot of emergency situations, when emergency interventions of certain components of the Emergency Response System (ERS) are necessary, occur daily in our country. Fire prevention units belong to the basic components of the ERS. After the transformation of the army system and the disestablishment of emergency corps, the number of interventions when the fire prevention units will be called up will increase. The thesis which deals with the issue {\clq}qDoes the equipment of volunteer firemen comply with requirements of their mission?`` examines if the equipment necessary for firemen interventions meets the needs. In the Jindřichův Hradec area there are 18 fire prevention units of categories FPU II and FPU III (FPU {--} Fire Prevention Unit) which belong to those units that cover the requirements of the area. The equipment of individual volunteer fire units and the equipment of fire prevention units is not the same. The main differencies are due to different missions of the two kinds of units (interventions in vehicle accidents, in fires, or technological interventions). All volunteer fire units are equipped with a cistern fire engine of different age which is used to transport water. The transport vehicle is used also by the fire units to transport the fire squad to the site of intervention. Besides the main equipment such as cistern containers and fire fighting trucks the fire units use auxiliary equipment. In two volunteer fire units a survey of the development of the equipment in the course of its existence is given. It reflects the development of the equipment - at first only the equipment for fire interventions was used. Nowadays, the volunteer fireunits take part in a range of emergency interventions (fires, vehicle accidents, natural disasters, calamities {--} floods, winter storms).
