A reconciliation balance sheet will be developed and billed as one consolidated amount.

A final division of cost responsibilities based on jurisdiction, minimum thresholds and cost share agreements will be negotiated by December of each year. Minimum Billing Threshold is not applicable and applies to all fires included in this process. It does not apply to out-of-state responses. The minimum threshold does not apply to costs for cooperating fire departments under a separate agreement with the state when working outside their jurisdictional boundary or requested by a resource order for extended attack.
