These designated officers are spe- cially trained to resolve critical incidents that are too hazardous, complex, or unusual for first responding officers to safely han- dle. The Tehama Inter Agency- SWAT team is utilized for a variety of situations including hostage situ- ations, barricaded suspects, and the service of high risk warrants. The Tehama Inter-Agency SWAT team is comprised of several different components. For instance, the Entry Team is comprised of 11 SWAT Operators, which are direct- ly supervised by a Team Leader. The Team Leader is responsible for the operation of the team when car- rying out mission objectives. Another component of the team is comprised of Snipers/Observers and the team's Tactical Dispatch Unit. The Snipers/Observers and Tactical Dispatchers play a crucial role in indentifying potentially dan- gerous situations and then commu- nicating that information to the Entry Team. Another important component of the team is the Crisis Negotiation Team. In many cases the Crisis Negoti- ation Team is the first line of com- munication with suspects in hostage situations or barricaded suspects. The Crisis Negotiation team is staffed by specially trained Nego- tiators who communicate with sus- pects in tense, rapidly evolving sit- uations. Negotiators play a key role on SWAT teams and often have suc- cess in negotiating peaceful surren- ders. The final component of the team is the Command Staff who are ultimately responsible for the deployment of the SWAT team and the approval of tactical plans. The Tacti- cal Command staff deploys personnel as they closely monitor crit- ical incidents the SWAT Team is utilized to han- dle. The Command staff is comprised of Admin- istrators from the Tehama County Sheriff's Office and the Red Bluff Police Department. The Tactical Commanders monitor critical incidents from the command post and monitor the team's radio communications. The Tehama Inter-Agency SWAT Entry Team and Snipers train regularly and are required to complete a rigorous battery of physical fitness testing that is con- ducted bi-annually. For example, one of the requirements Entry and Sniper Team Members have to per- form is two pull-ups while wearing over 35-pounds of their issued tacti- cal equipment. In 1997 the first SWAT team was formed by the Red Bluff Police Department. At that time, Chief Nanfito was a Patrol Sergeant and acted as the SWAT Team's first Team Leader. After serving several years on the Entry Team, Chief Nanfito continued his involvement as one of the SWAT Team's Tactical Commanders. Although Chief Nanfito's current duties keep him busy and his hair is a "tad" greyer than it was in 1997, he is still pas- sionate about our SWAT Team, which he demonstrated by participating and passing the last physical agility fit- ness test in October of 2009. SWAT is an acronym for Special Weapons and Tac- tics. The members of the Tehama Inter Agency SWAT team receive spe- cialized training, which is not available to patrol per- sonnel. In the 10 plus years I have been involved in law enforcement, SWAT has been the most challenging, exciting, and rewarding collateral assignment I have held. We have dedi- cated personnel who are voluntarily on call for critical inci- dents 24-hours a day, seven days a week. Officer Gene Randall started his law enforcement career with the Plumas County Sheriff's office in 1999 as Deputy Sheriff. He has been with the Red Bluff Police Department since 2003 and has held a variety of collateral assignments such as: Police Detective, Field Training Officer and the Assistant Special Events Coordinator. He is a member of the Tehama Inter Agency S.W.A.T. Team. Anyone having questions or topics for this column can contact him by emailing him at grandall@rbpd.org or by phone at 527-3131.
