Mutual Aide can consist of one truck of full department response depending on the request of the fire dept requesting mutual aide. If there is a structure fire, FDL Co. established something called automatic mutual aide where the predetermined fire dept. gets called at the same time if there is a structure fire for full mutual aide. In August of 2010 Fond du Lac County started using MABAS which is Mutual Aide Box Alarm System. This allows departments to predetermine which apparatus they want from a department, for each geographical area on a "card". MABAS is set up to make the scene easier flowing during an emergency as well as not take too many resources from one single department.
