Does FDNY and EMS have plans for multi-day operations such as are occurring in Los Angeles right now ? A plan might include FF relief, rotation, meals, rest, fuel for apparatus, mutual aid, communications etc.

The following is a picture of a California fire fighter, presumably from the LAFD, but maybe from a mutual aid jurisdicction. Am I wrong or does it seem that the turnout gear, particularly the jacket, he is wearing is very lightweight compared to the turnout gear typically seen in the East ? I...
