There is still a lot of work in progress at the
national level, as well as reviews for possible revisions of existing documents.
(The NRP is currently under review.) Typing for SAR has been recommended
for review at the national level. Some of this is being driven by the
Credentialing task groups also in progress at the
national level for SAR, so there will be consistency for job titles and related
expectations. I've been asked for input regarding SAR Credentialing, and tried
to also consider how that may impact MSAR going forward.
Mounted SAR isn't on the radar yet at the national
level, essentially waiting for the standards to be completed through ASTM before
addressing MSAR credentialing and Typing. There are also standards for SAR as a
disaster responder in progress. For disaster response purposes, CERT - or
equivalent - is considered a good basic foundation.
There are only a few states that even address SAR -
much less MSAR - at the statewide level for consistency for mutual aid. While
the statewide document needs revisions in CA for MSAR, you might get some ideas
for state level mutual aid minimum expectations. In CA we have a State SAR
Coordinator (many states do not) in our Office of Emergency
Services
and the documents are on the CA OES web site:
