Codes

Fire/EMS departments in Licking County have moved almost entirely to plain language, although some remnants of BSSA codes and signals remain, such as 16 (death) and 44 (responder down). Also "10-22", the former Newark Fire Department code for PD, is occassionaly used to discretely request law enforcement response. "Priority 1" is used for lights and sirens response. "Priority 2" is used for non-emergency response. "Signal O" (possibly from Columbus Division of Fire) is sometimes used to indicate all units have cleared a scene.
