  23. Cooperation (Fitch) (Continued) ‘The majority of the first response agencies made positive comments about their organization’s relationship with AMR. Individuals cited several specific examples of how AMR works with them on programs, supports them when needed and responds to their requests. Specific AMR employees were cited as being supportive. AMR managers also reported good working relationships with the majority of many fire departments.’
