Tulare County Local 151.19 is also used to dispatch Tulare Indian FD maybe
------------------
sometimes I have not been super specific when using the term "local FDs" vs "county FD" - maybe we can sort that out later - this can be determined by looking at the dispatch agreements that are signed with CalFire - these agreements basically supply the local FDs (either a VFD or a County FD or a City FD) with dispatch service and with radio channels
