| Summary/abstract: | - The Brea Fire Department needed a new policy that would determine the process of conducting fire investigations. Research questions asked: (1) What are the desired qualifications for investigators? (2) Who should be assigned investigation responsibilities? (3) How is law enforcement involved? (4) How can Brea investigate fires more effectively? Action research methods were used to develop the new policy. A literature review was conducted and a survey was developed and used to answer the research questions. Department personnel were used in a collaborative approach developing the policy. Results were acquired and addressed by question. A discussion of the policy development was done. Recommendations of implementation and future improvements were made as well as offer suggestions for future researchers.
