Special Units and Teams
Special units and teams are coordinated by the Operations Division Commander and fulfill
special operational needs that are external yet juxtaposed to the standard patrol functions.
Some of these teams, such as the Dive Team and Swift Water Rescue Team, also include highly
qualified and trained Sheriff Department members that are outside of the Patrol Section.
Each of these special units and teams are ready on the call to take action when
needed to deal with those circumstances that require a specialized and skilled response.
