Total estimated annual cost of replacement:
Based on the replacement time frame, expected pricing, current estimates for vehicle fleet replacement are
$5,179,625 a year as of 2025. The large increase in total cost from last year’s document is due to addition
of EMS, Ocean Safety, and support services vehicle replacement tracking. Documentation of all
calculations are included within.
HFD Standard Complement: What is our deployment model?
Exempting specialty vehicles not covered by this document, in general the Hawaii Fire Department has
three models of deployment. One is for Career Fire Stations, one is for Specialty Career Stations, and the
last is for Volunteer Fire Stations.
Model C: Three Frontline Fire Vehicles maintained at less than 15 years in age
• (1) Engine (or Aerial Ladder) (Type 1, 4+ daily staff ideally)
• (1) Brush Truck (Type 6+, normally unstaffed)
• (1) Light Duty Vehicle (4x4 truck, unstaffed)
• (1) Tanker (not all stations, placed in districts without water supply, staffed with 1)
Model C Special: Three Frontline Fire Vehicles maintained at less than 15 years in age
• (1) Engine (or Aerial Ladder) (Type 1, unstaffed, Specialty Vehicle placed O/C if used)
• (1) Specialty Vehicle (Hazmat Truck, Heavy Rescue + Light Rescue, 5+ daily staff ideally)
• (1) Light Duty Vehicle (usually 4x4 Truck)
Model V: Two Frontline Fire Vehicles maintained at less than 25 years in age
• (1) Tanker (Type 2 Tactical Tanker)
• (1) Brush Truck (Type 6+)
Plus Vehicles: Stations may also be equipped with the following:
• (1) BC Command Vehicle (used by Battalion Chief)
• (1) Fuel Truck (unstaffed)
• (1) Boat (unstaffed) (not covered in this document)
• (1) Helicopter (staffed by pilot) (not covered in this document)
• Trailers (Hazmat, Mass Casualty, Incident Command, Boat, Flatbed, SCBA) (not covered)
Scheduled Replacement Time: 15 Year or 25 Years.
Fire Department vehicles should not be considered similarly to most other Departmental or private
vehicles. The public depends on their emergency responders, when called, to arrive on the scene in a
timely manner with the appropriate resources and equipment.
The applicable standards used by the fire service relating to fire apparatus are the National Fire Protection
association (NFPA) 1901. According to the NFPA 1901 Standard (2016 Ed.) It is highly recommended to
replace frontline fire apparatus at the 15 year point. Each apparatus faces different conditions, some will
be in poor condition after 8-10 years of heavy use, and others may serve dependably up to 20 years. On
average a replacement plan for fire apparatus vehicles at 15 years will allow fire departments to best serve
the communities that rely on them.
It is understood that there are fiscal constraints affecting Hawaii County’s ability to purchase equipment
and vehicles. As such the Hawaii Fire Department’s vehicle replacement plan is based off of a 15 year
replacement plan for career stations vehicles, and a 25 year replacement plan for volunteer stations
vehicles. This allows us to shift well maintained frontline apparatus past their 15 year NFPA
recommended life span into our volunteer fleet to supplement our response.

Fire Engine and Specialty Vehicles:
Currently the Hawaii Fire Department maintains Twenty-five (25) Frontline Engines or Specialty
Vehicles. Sixteen (16) of these trucks meet our current replacement standards for years of service. Nine
(9) trucks are beyond the current standards for expected life. The current expected cost of replacement is
between $1,200,000 and $2,000,000 dependent on vehicle. Fire Engines are currently running around 1.2
million and the specialty vehicles have been seen to run closer to two million. The current lead time from
factories is about four years from order to delivery.
Currently it is our recommendation to order two to three vehicles a year for the next six years. This will
allow us to achieve a 15-year replacement with a four-year lead time by the year 2031. This plan is
subject to change based on market conditions and changes in delivery times from major manufacturers.
Expected costs in new vehicle acquisition per year average out to 2.32 million based on expected costs.
• 1,200,000 x 19 vehicles = 22,800,000
• 2,000,000 x 6 vehicles = 12,000,000
• Total Cost of Acquisition of Fleet = 34,800,000 / 15-year replacement cycle =
• 2.32 million annual expected replacement cost
These vehicles are currently funded through a revolving lease system in 010.221.6221.02.115. See the
following page for a ten (10) year lease breakdown.

Tankers
Currently the Hawaii Fire Department maintains Twenty-three (23) Frontline Tankers. Eight (8) of these
trucks meet our current replacement standards for years of service. Fifteen (15) trucks are beyond the
current standards for expected life. The current expected cost of a replacement is around $600,000. The
current lead time from factories is about two to three years from order to delivery.
Currently it is our recommendation to order one vehicle a year for the foreseeable future. Expected costs
in new vehicle acquisition per year average at $690,000 a year based on current expected costs.
• 600,000 x 23 vehicles = 13,800,000
• Total Cost of Acquisition of Fleet = 34,800,000 / 20 average year replacement cycle =
• $690,000 annual expected replacement cost
*The Hawaii Fire Department is expecting four donated tankers through the Sayre Foundation within the
next year or so. As such no tankers are queued for FY25/26 for replacement.

Brush Trucks:
Currently the Hawaii Fire Department maintains 26 Frontline Brush Trucks. Eight (8) of these trucks
meet 1901 standards. Eighteen (18) trucks are beyond the current standards for expected life. The current
expected cost of replacement is between $210,000 and $370,000 dependent on the level of customization.
Currently it is our recommendation to order one vehicle a year through County general fund expenditures
and to seek out grants or donations for a second unit each year for the foreseeable future. Expected costs
in new vehicle acquisition per year average out to $370,000 a year for budgeting of County funding.
$370,000 annual expected replacement cost (County Funds)
It should be noted that the current Fire Administration has been very successful in achieving alternate
sources of funding to supply brush trucks.

Appendix 3: Vehicle Replacement Guidelines:
VEHICLE REPLACEMENT GUIDELINES
VEHICLE CONDITION SCORE / VEHICLE REPLACEMENT GUIDELINES
PURPOSE The following is a recommended comprehensive assessment of the Hawaii Fire Department’s fleet with data that guides and justifies the Department's vehicle replacement requirements. This vehicle condition scoring matrix assesses various data streams to determine current vehicle condition and will assign a
numerical "condition score" to each vehicle in the fleet. Thereafter, each vehicle will be assessed, and its condition score updated for as long as the vehicle is maintained by Hawaii Fire and Ocean Safety. Score "thresholds" for retiring each vehicle type will ensure that relevant vehicles are replaced at the right time
and sequence. RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Review and approve the plan to annually evaluate and "score" the overall condition of all Department vehicles using a customized vehicle scoring application called a Vehicle Condition Report. 2. Guides the Department with vehicle acquisition and replacement decisions based on vehicle condition scores to ensure the vehicles are replaced within an identified time frame.
FISCAL IMPACT Full implementation of these recommendations should have minimal direct fiscal impact on Department expenditures for the following reasons: 1. Vehicle condition scores will be developed from existing data. 2. Vehicle assessments will occur in conjunction with already scheduled annual preventive
maintenance inspections. 3. Data will be extracted from the Department's existing Records Management System. 4. Vehicle condition reports will be developed by existing staff.
Because this plan is designed to guide the Department in fleet replacement decisions, the Vehicle Condition Report will compel the Department to either replace or not replace vehicles depending on
overall vehicle condition. Actual fleet acquisition and disposal, however, is subject to budgetary limitations and operational needs. Direct cost savings to the Department will be realized by streamlining fleet replacement planning and budget preparation through the use of vehicle condition scores that will guide the Department's fleet replacement strategy and decision making. DISCUSSION Our HFD (excluding Ocean Safety) fleet consists of 97 light and heavy apparatus of various types. Each type of vehicle has an expected life span which, subject to operational needs and budget restrictions, forms the basis for the Department's fleet replacement schedule. No State or federal rules exists that mandate when fire apparatus must be retired. Nevertheless, National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 1901 recommendation, industry best practices, progressive fire agencies, and HFD's own Fire Mechanics, all assert that fire department vehicles have a useful life expectancy and sooner or later, they must be replaced.
HFD FRONTLINE FIRE RESPONSE, FLEET REPLACEMENT PLAN FY25-26
17 | Page
Following are comments and recommendations from subject matter experts regarding fire apparatus replacement:
• The Commission of Fire Accreditation International (CFAI) states that apparatus replacement intervals should be based on the effects of variables such as age, use, and
maintenance costs on the useful life span of fire apparatus (Commission on Fire Accreditation International, 1997).
• NFPA 1901 states recommends the removal of apparatus from front-line service after 15
years and from all emergency service after 25 years
• NFPA 1912 states "...Apparatus not manufactured to applicable NFPA fire apparatus
standards or that are over 25 years old should be replaced."
• Various authors suggest that the useful life of fire apparatus varies among fire departments
and is affected largely by apparatus utilization, local environment, local operating conditions, routine workload, and scope of preventive maintenance program. Currently, the Department's fleet replacement practice is that heavy apparatus (Ladders, Engines, and
Specialty Apparatus) are due for replacement after 15 years in front line service and 5 years of relief service. However, age and mileage alone do not take into consideration overall vehicle condition which provides information and compelling fleet replacement guidance. A more strategic and compelling vehicle replacement policy is needed to guide and validate fleet replacement actions. To this end, vehicle condition must be considered when making fleet replacement decisions and vehicle condition thresholds must be implemented so the appropriate vehicles are replaced at the appropriate time.
Establishing replacement cycles for different vehicle types is both an art and a science. It involves judgment, predictions, forecasts, and assumptions on one hand and analysis of available data on the other. Therefore, the following approach will be utilized to identify, prioritize, select, justify, and replace vehicles that have exceeded their useful and economic life span:
The Department approach is based on an economic truism which states that as a vehicle ages, the cost of capital diminishes and its operating costs increase. The combination of these two cost factors produce a cost curve that shows the optimum time to replace vehicles is when the operating costs
begin to exceed the capital costs. Deferring replacement of vehicles beyond this optimum financial threshold results in increased fleet costs that are essentially transferred from capital budgets to operating budgets.
The Department has established predetermined condition thresholds based on age, mileage, and other condition criteria. A criteria based replacement strategy dictates the timing of replacement discussions, provides guidance on specific vehicle replacement considerations, and establishes fact-based justification for specific vehicle replacement decisions. Fundamental to this type of vehicle replacement plan is the intent and objective to produce a condition score that only indicates which vehicle(s) of a particular type are due for replacement and which ones should be replaced first. This approach is especially useful in determining when to replace custom vehicles such as fire apparatus. Please note, however, vehicle condition scores are NOT used to indicate fitness for duty or vehicle safety because the overriding criterion for all apparatus in the Fire Department fleet is that every vehicle is safe, reliable, and fully functional.
The intent will be to replace vehicles when the cost to maintain and repair them exceeds a preset threshold dollar amount. This threshold dollar amount is generally the wholesale value of the vehicle
at the time the vehicle is being assessed. Whereas the first approach focuses on costs already sustained up to the time of the condition assessment, this last approach takes into consideration expected future operating and maintenance costs that will be incurred in the year or years following the condition
HFD FRONTLINE FIRE RESPONSE, FLEET REPLACEMENT PLAN FY25-26
18 | Page
assessment. The intent of knowing when a vehicle's operating costs exceed this threshold amount is to replace the vehicle before a major breakdown occurs. Analysis of historical repair trends and costs
can reveal the point at which vehicle repairs start to increase significantly. This is an effective replacement strategy for any vehicle for which a "blue book" value can be established and for which future repair costs can be estimated. Under this schema, fleets can avoid performing repairs that cost more than a vehicle is worth. Custom fire apparatus - like all vehicles - have a useful life expectancy. Vehicles that are kept beyond their optimum replacement timeline subject the Department to higher vehicle operating costs, reduced vehicle salvage revenue, and longer vehicle out-of-service times due to reduced parts availability, more extensive repairs, expired warranties, and reduced overall suitability to the Department due to obsolescence and new technology and standards. Vehicle condition scores will enable the Department to identify, validate, communicate, and justify which, when, and by how much,
vehicles have exceeded their expected life cycle. After vehicle condition results are obtained, appropriate acquisition and disposal action will be taken.
The following chart represents a vehicle condition scoring matrix and would include some or all of the criteria listed in this report.
FACTOR POINTS
AGE 1 point for each year of chronological age from date in
service.
MILES OR HOURS 1 point for each 10,000 miles or 1,000 engine hours of use.
TYPE OF SERVICE
1, 3, or 5 points are assigned based on the type of service the unit
is exposed to. For instance, fire pumpers would be given a five because it is classified as severe duty service. In contrast, an
administrative sedan would be given a one
MAINTENANCE
REPAIR RELIABILITY
1 to 5 points are assigned based on total life Maintenance,
Repair costs, and depending on the frequency that a vehicle is in the shop for repair. A five would be assigned to a vehicle in the shop two or more times per month on
average, while a one would be assigned to a vehicle in the
shop an average of once every three months or less.
CONDITION This category takes into consideration body condition, rust, interior condition, accident history, anticipated repairs, and so on. A scale of 1 to 5 points is used with 5 being poor condition.
Scores for each factor would be tallied and thresholds set that would rate vehicles as good, mission
capable, qualifies for replacement, and/or needs immediate consideration. POINT RANGES
POINTS CONDITION CATEGORY
Fewer than 18 points Condition 1 Good
18 to 22 points Condition 2 Mission capable
HFD FRONTLINE FIRE RESPONSE, FLEET REPLACEMENT PLAN FY25-26
19 | Page
23 to 27 points Condition 3 Qualifies for replacement
28 points and above Condition 4 Needs immediate
consideration
EXAMPLE:
Applying the chart above, use a 9-year-old fire pumper planned for replacement in two to three years. The unit has 80,000 miles; is in poor condition; and includes massive amounts of downtime, poor reliability, and repair costs that exceed more than 80 percent of its original purchase price.
The points would be assigned as follows:
Age = 9 points Miles or engine hours = 8 points Type of service is severe = 5 points Maintenance, Repair, Reliability = 3 points Condition = 2 points
Total = 27 points and needs immediate consideration
CONCLUSION Current vehicle ages are appropriately stated in Department's current replacement policy and the Department endeavors to replace a sufficient number of vehicles each fiscal year so that no vehicles in the fleet exceed established limits and criteria.
New apparatus replacement guidelines based on age, mileage, condition, maintenance cost, and obsolescence should be utilized. The budget will also be a part of the decision-making process, but will not be specifically addressed by this guideline. The intent is that vehicle replacement guidelines
will impact the fleet replacement budget, rather than the budget impacting vehicle replacement guidelines.

Appendix 4: Vehicle Disposal Guidelines:
VEHICLE DISPOSAL GUIDELINES
The Hawaii Fire Department vehicle disposal process typically involves a few steps to ensure compliance with other sections in the County. Here are the general steps involved: 1. Vehicle Assessment a. The Chief Mechanic assesses the condition of the vehicles in the fleet to determine if it is still serviceable or no longer needed. Utilizing the data acquired from the HFD Apparatus
Replacement Plan will play a factor to this decision also. 2. Approval Process
a. The Chief Mechanic will consult with Fire Auxiliary Services Office to confirm all vehicles identified to be removed from inventory. b. HFD will then inform County Property Management of all vehicles identified for
disposal/auction and request approval. 3. Auction or Disposal a. The Fire Maintenance Shop will prep the vehicles by removing all emergency lighting, sirens and radios. Any Fire Department in signifying badging or letting will be removed also.
b. If the vehicle has resale value, County Property Management will schedule a public auction. All funds from sale currently will go back to the County’s general fund. c. If the vehicle cannot be resold, County Property Management will contract a certified disposal company to ensure proper handling of the hazardous substances. 4. Documentation and Record Keeping
a. Throughout the process, all steps, including the sale or disposal, will be properly documented. This ensures the transparency of, accountability and compliance of the County’s budget and legal requirements.
