    Pump Operations with hydrants on 48 inch water mains

    ISO and NFPA actually give you a choice. In most cases, the verbage is identical for most specs or requirements. Last time I looked it read either 2 10 foot lengths of hard suction or 1 20 foot length of soft supply line on engines. My dept did away with the hard suction years ago, since we...

    Sterling (Loudon County), VA - House Fire w/ Multiple Maydays

    The tank was in a crawlspace below the house. Apparently it had been abandoned with some fuel left in it, and from what the investigators told us later, it had been capped on all of its orifices and abandoned, so when it heated up there was no where for the pressure to go.

    New Seagraves

    I used the term stick on our aerial all the time. Used it interchangeably with aerial or ladder but mostly stick. I think and don't quote me on this the name goes back to when the aerials were made of wood. Seagrave makes a ladder called a Meanstick.
