The Joint CAD Incident Tracking system is a partnership between [http://www.wccca.com Washington County Consolidated Communications Agency] and [http://www.clackamas911.org/ Clackamas County Communications] in the State of Oregon, providing up-to-date information regarding fire and medical-related incidents in both counties.
 
 
 
A link to the Washington County Fire & EMS feed from the [http://www.radioreference.com/apps/audio/?stid=41 RadioRefernce.com Live Audio Feeds] is located on the front page, allowing anyone with an internet connection to both hear and see calls as they are dispatched.

===Other Units Not Listed===
 
Throughout both counties, there are several units that have not been included in this list. For example, in Washington County, a fire investigator can have a three or four digit unit ID (TVF&R: 2514, Hillsboro: 115, Forest Grove: 4911), but they are not included here. While every attempt is made to identify common unit IDs, this is not a complete database or reference. The best way to know what unit is responding is by keeping an ear on your scanner.
