http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Emergency_service
where the discussion page notes that we can't "just change" existing
amenity tags.
emergency_service=technical has no usage in Australia
and checking the unreferenced wikipedia page
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_service
technical doesn't fit SES duties
nothing on that page fits normal storm/tempest/flood work which is always
SES, and it dumps rescue in with fire, which is a major unresolved
discussion in Australia, where rescue can be police, fire, ambulance, ses,
vra (maybe more) for various historical and political reasons.
