Is ths IC required to request an extra alarm in order to get his assignment for relief purposes after going Under Control? If so, that might reach 10 alarms soon...

No. They just ask for what they want.

Thanks. I was under the same impression too, this made me wonder why a 6th alarm was transmitted @09:00. (as per @FDNY on Twitter this fire went U/C @07:10)
