Abstract

The objective is to determine the best re-allocations of the stations to easily reach the accident location with both the least cost and time possible, with the best firefighting effective required facilities. This objective required dividing the six governorates into 133 areas served in 6 minutes efficient response time. The final findings of this study were 30 reallocated stations, which managed effectively to cover all 133 required areas. This has been shown on included maps of the six governorates. The goal linear programming model idea was not discussed in the emergency field research of the “State of Kuwait,” specifically in the firefighting emergency service. Moreover, this modeling can be expanded to cover all other types of emergency service topics such as health, paramedics, and police stations.
