I hope going forward the City of Newark and the State of New Jersey do the right thing in the wake of this. DFS can intervene when it’s a matter of certifications/ qualifications, task force issues etc. There is a state fire coordinator that oversees the IASI counties and their respective assets.

When was the last time a Manhattan Company caught a first due fire in SI?

I would think for 2:1 drags and maybe for a ladder high point down firefighter removal among other things.
