Which of the following statements is FALSE? A. The assisting party in a mutual aid agreement can withdraw deployed resources due
to unforeseen emergencies. B. A resource may be reassigned prior to completion of a mission. C. Self-dispatch is encouraged in mutual aid systems. D. The Incident Commander is responsible for requesting additional resources if needed
The correct answer is option C. "Self-dispatch is encouraged in mutual aid systems".
Explanation:
It is false to affirm that self-dispatch is encouraged in mutual aid systems. Mutual aid systems are agreements that let resources assistance across jurisdictional boundaries under emergency situations. Therefore, self-dispatch is not encouraged in mutual aid systems. On the contrary, it is encouraged that the resources request for assistance of other jurisdictions under an emergency situation.
