Procedure details
Description
Reimbursement of costs can be claimed
- for fire-fighting and technical assistance operations in which the danger or damage was caused by the operation of motor vehicles, aircraft, rail vehicles or watercraft or a trailer intended to be carried by a motor vehicle, with the exception of operations or activities directly serving the rescue or recovery of people and animals,
- for other operations in the technical assistance service, with the exception of operations or activities that directly serve the rescue or recovery of people and animals,
- for special extinguishing agents used for fires in commercial and industrial operations,
- for operations caused by a deliberate or grossly negligent hazard,
- in the event of deliberate or grossly negligent false alarms by the fire department or false alarms triggered by a private fire alarm system,
- if a security service has forwarded an emergency call despite there being no indication that a fire department operation was necessary and no action was required for the immediate rescue or recovery of people,
- for the deployment of an alarmed fire department to an operation for which the municipalities of the deployed fire departments can demand reimbursement of expenses, but whose own action was not required,
- for security guards.
In principle, the party responsible for the hazard or the party otherwise obliged to eliminate the hazard is liable for the costs, as well as, for example, anyone who has made use of the fire department's security guards or deliberately or grossly negligently triggered a false alarm.
