Report
Summary
The SCBA equipment needed by the Police Department requires a modified mask faceplate to allow operation of rifles/scopes in high-risk incidents. The Police Department's Special Assignments Unit (SAU) is responsible for resolution of barricaded subjects, high-risk search warrants, arrest of subjects with a high violence potential and is a part of Phoenix's Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) Regional Response Team. An additional facet of SAU's response is operating in a contaminated environment such as chemical, biological, explosives and fire situations. The SCBA system provides additional safety in preventing any dangerous chemical exposure to Police personnel.
