These searchers were not just volunteers but experienced fire personnel and LE. It was coordinated by LE till midnight and continued after midnight unofficially I understand.
I am pretty sure for those searchers that were employees there are likely laws that regulate how long they can officially work. I doubt an area like that has enough LEO and fire employees to just replace them all with a different bunch for each shift for something that is ongoing and no one at the time knew for how long. Officially ending the search yet many continued to search anyway so that was likely to get around laws about total hours worked/overtime,things like that.
