Civil Emergency. Employees summoned to control a forest fire, flood, or other civil emergency will be retained on the payroll of the Employer and will receive the regular rate of pay for their working day position for a normal working day. If an employee is required to control a civil emergency beyond their normal working day they may be paid for the extra hours by the authority involved, such as the Forest Service, at regular rates. If an employee is on vacation with pay at the time of the summons to control a forest fire, flood, or other civil emergency, the number of days fighting such an emergency shall not be credited to their vacation leave provided that any remuneration other than overtime is turned over to the Employer and their vacation days shall be rescheduled to a mutually convenient time.
