No, its not. Some companies choose to preconnect it. But a heads up chauffeur knowing hes going to be suppling master streams should be trying to get the largest volume possible, and part of that is using the 35’ to the side. Take time to make time. -

And also a pic after the fire may show an unobstructed hydrant, ive had numerous times a car leave after the lines have been charged, making it seem like the chauffeur screwed up. Maybe dont be so critical from a snapshot of a fire you werent at. -

You can hook the 35 to the side too. The volume of water is significantly more with the 35’. The issue is it creates laziness. The 20’ will be a disaster, i havent seen a hydrant without a car parked on it in months. -

Yes. Like i said, other companies became available and some were turned around. That was the ticket at 1308ish hrs. At 1324ish 46 and 49 were the all hands 1 and 1, sounds like 49 didn't make it to the box though. Only heard bits and pieces of audio and from talking to guys from a few companies. -

Definitely cant determine the hydrant in advance right now. Good ECCs will have an idea of the hydrants they wanna take, but between cars, hydrants tampered with, sidewalk construction to restrict intersections even more…its impossible to know what hydrants will even work or be accessible. Later... -
