SOC Island Update

Rescue battalion, Tactical support unit 1, Command Tactical unit 1, SOC Logistics, SOC compressor, and maybe the dewatering unit? Can’t remember, plus a bunch of other stuff like spares I think.
 
Last Time I was there last year
Rescue Battalion
Tac 1
CTU-1,2
Logistics & Compressor
Rescue Battalion Spare
Spare Squad
Rescue 4s Spare
E521
Soc Dewatering
Swift Water 4
Swift Water Support
2 Gator's
SOC Van
MCI Roll Offs
 
That’s an awful amount of rigs that are parked/ stored outdoor exposed to the weather. SOC truly needs a large warehouse to store all their specialized equipment , central located in the city easily accessible to major roads and highways in the western Queens area.…Astoria , LIC, or Maspeth.
SOC isn’t going anywhere and is only getting bigger. Could even move SOC tools in there too.

They just paved the lot the large tent is coming soon like TAC 2 is in….

It’s for Reserve 521, Rescue Logistics, Compressor, Dewatering
 
Out of curiosity, does anybody know what the staffing is at SOC Island? Off the top of my head:
- RB (2)
- CTU (4)
- TAC1 (1)
- SOC Compressor (1)

Is there more? Do SOC Logistics and the Dewatering Unit have dedicated staff?

Im pretty sure they also just have a couple of people that just sit there, probably on light duty
 
SOC Compressor, Logistic , Dewatering , all maned 27/7 with light duty FF. Also light duty FF in the SOC tool room doing repairs , picking up & delivering tools. Nobody is “just sitting there “.

The rolloff truck ,hook truck and spider truck also at SOC Island ,NOT manned 24/7.
Skid steer & collapse PODS too.

Are they light duty SOC FF or gen-pop FF?
 
Roll Off ...I know
Hook Lift ....I know
Spider Truck ???? I don't know

Also are there plans to build a bigger building or add an additional one....seems like a lot more then I imagined sitting outside and not on shore power

Could the MCI Poss (5-poss 1 for each borough), Skid steer Pod and Collapse Pods be put somewhere else considering that's about maybe 8 or more pods and they aren't stacked

It just doesn't seem like everything would fit there......
 
Rescue Battalion - 1BC 1FF
Command Tac 1 - 1LT 2-3FF
Tactical Support 1 - 1FF
Dewatering Unit - 1LT or Capt 1FF
SOC Compressor - 1FF
Rescue Logistics - 1FF
2-3 Light Duty Firefighters depending usually in the Vans but can staff Hook Lift, Roll Off, Light Towers and EMS MCI POD and other PODs at the rock.

RDC has a minimum of 1FF but 3 are assigned M-F The Spider truck is the flatbed with the forklift, they have SQ800, R6, Rescue Logistics 2 & Pick up there.
