"OCFA staff and I made every effort possible to <br />ensure our 2026 QRF agreement with SCE was renewed before the January 1, 2026 <br />deadline." <br />These actions raise serious concerns about transparency and integrity in the <br />decision -making process. Any board member or representatives from Local 3631, <br />including Chris Hamm, are welcome to publicly respond." <br />https://www.cbsnews.com/losanaeles/news/oranae-countv-fire-authority-socal- <br />edison-quick-reaction-force-contract-expire/ <br />OCFA UNION BEHIND SHUTTERING THE QRF PROGRAM <br />https://x.com/i/status/2008222645834105003 <br />
