That was one of two theories. The other is that he got his

info from 2018 san diego county hazmit plan - grouping of hazards

It was also determined that the coastal storm, erosion, and tsunami
hazards should be profiled together because the same communities in
the County have the potential to be affected by all three hazards. In
the development of the initial plan, the HMWG indicated that based on
the fact that the majority of the development in San Diego is
relatively recent (within the last 60 years), an urban type of fire
that destroys multiple city blocks is not likely to occur alone,
without a wildfire in the urban/wild-land interface occurring first.
Therefore, it was determined that house/building fire and wildfire
should be addressed as one hazard category in the plan. This current
revised plan continues to discuss structure fire and wildfire
together. Similarly, the original plan and first revision addressed
earthquake and liquefaction as one category because liquefaction does
not occur unless an adequate level of ground shaking from an
earthquake occurs first. With the decommissioning of the San Onofre
Nuclear Generating Station it was decided to incorporate nuclear
materials release (resulting from an accident) under hazardous
materials release.

from county hazmit plan

2017 info or 2011 info

most of district is SRA - eastern 1/3 is in Cleveland National Forest
- which means that the state and the feds have primary responsibility
for wildfire control - but zero responsibility to handle any other
fires - and sorta zero capability also - unless the usfs engines have
scba - which they very well might - all calfire engines have scba -
not sure if they have bunker gear or not - they dont have AED

in fact - why not send a medevac helo also - if not to scene, then to

San Diego County FPD - new name Jan 2021

https://www.countynewscenter.com/county-fire-starts-new-year-with-new-name/

new name for 2021 is San Diego County Fire Protection District

35 stations and 500 sworn personnel

basically what they did is replace all the VFD with paid stations

how they can afford to do that - I have no idea

but thats what Kern County and Santa Barbara County and Ventura County
did - maybe also San Bernardino County - not sure about Riverside
County - they still might have lots of POC

it will be kinda funny when San Diego County has the next big brush
fire and everyone calls to go back to the 1970s Cal Fire contract

keep in mind - the San Diego County FPD just serves the unincorporated
areas of San Diego County - with alot of help from USFS and Cal Fire

1. maybe they should have put snorkels at opposite corners with access to all 4 sides of bld

2. looks like water pressure was low on 1 snorkel at some point

3. why are there bricks in wall at 20th floor? stupid question - I have bricks on my exterior wall also - but there must be a better way to build a building envelope

4. we have no idea when the snorkels were sent nor when they arrived nor how many others are in the area

On August 29, around 7 am, a spectacular fire broke out in the Ámbar Tower in the Hortaleza district. A fire in a high-rise building that affects the last three floors and that presented a serious risk of spreading through the facade.

This type of fire requires the use of a large amount of media; approximately 23 vehicles with their crews traveled to the site, but above all the participation of the two articulated arms that the Service has (70 m and 50 m) were essential to cut the propagation along the façade.

On the other hand, comment as an important fact that the building's fire protection facilities (BIE, Dry Column, compartmentalization doors, etc.) worked correctly, facilitating both evacuation and extinguishing tasks at all times.

$92B on beauty products - USA - 2019

Americans have long spent more in aggregate on beauty and personal
care than any country in the world, about $92.8 billion in 2019,
according to Euromonitor, a consumer-research company. Though revenues
dipped during quarantine, over all, global consumers have close to
doubled their spending in the past 15 years, as prices of products
have risen and beauty has entered a phase of total pop-culture
domination, on par with hip-hop and gaming.

quint plus tanker concept - usa

just thinking out loud

usa - lets start a new quint plus tanker concept

many big city fire stations have 1 pumper plus 1 ladder - with 4 people on each

lets change things up - lets go with 1 quint and 1 tanker in each
station - quint has 500 gallons of water and tanker has 3000 gallons
of water - this works best in a flat city

3500 gallons of water allows 14 minutes of fire attack at 250 GPM -
before connecting to any hydrants

quint could have crew of 5 and tanker could have crew of 1 - we just
cut crew requirements from 8 to 6 - thats a 25% cut in costs

this is close to the Mexico City / Beijing fire ops concept I think -
probably goes for everywhere in the world except USA + Canada + Hong
Kong + Russia

03/18/2021 In the evening, a message was received about a fire in the
Mamayka microdistrict on the street. 73 km, 9. The road to the fire
site is narrow with steep slopes. Upon arrival, the log building was
already completely engulfed in fire. Therefore, all forces were thrown
into the defense of nearby residential buildings, which we
successfully coped with. Putting out the fire was complicated by
strong winds, a waterless area and broken power lines under voltage.
According to the neighbor, the fire started from within and spread
quickly. The hostess of the house said that only air conditioners for
heat were working in the room. Fortunately, no one was at home at the
time of the fire and no one was injured.

Re: Acadia Parish Louisiana is interesting

http://www.appj.org/service-districts/

FPD 1, 2, 3, and 4 all have 5 commissioners chosen by the county commissioners

so it looks like all fpd in acadia parish have 5 commissioners chosen
by the county commissioners - except for Iota FPD + Acadia Evangeline
FPD + FPD 9

I have not checked FPD 5,6,7,8,10,11 explicitly yet

to figure out this county you need to first get list of FDs from state
fire marshal site - then check the fpd list - then check the county
assessor land records - and it would be great to see what the county
budget shows

in the end you would hopefully find out which fire trucks are at which
fire stations - who pays for them - who controls them - who staffs
them - who sets the budget for them

I suspect that the FPDs contract with the VFDs for service and
manpower - the FPDs probably pay for the stations and equipment to
serve the unincorporated areas - the mayors and city councils pay for
the fire service in the cities

there might be just 2 or 3 FPD that are not based on a city vfd - FPD
11 comes to mind as 1 of them - maybe fpd 3 also

church city fd is not associated with a fpd apparently - they are a city

eunice fd might share one of its stations with fpd 4

fpd 5 might contract with 2 vfd - estherwood fd + mermenteau fd

I think the bottom bottom line might be - the citys are responsible
for fire service in the citys - the county is responsible for fire
service outside of the citys (rural areas) - the county set up FPDs to
govern the FDs in the rural areas

the county assessor probably publishes a different fire mileage (fire
tax rate) for each fpd - this would reflect the will of the various
fire commisioners

they had been served by an adjacent FD

now they will be served by their own 90 person FD

Clive Iowa FD is interesting

Clive Iowa FD has -

Sta 32 - staffed by 38 Clive FD staff

Sta 22 - Clive shares 12 fulltime firefighter/medics at West Des
Moines Sta 22 - possibly another way to say this is - Clive pays for
50% of personnel costs at West Des Moines Sta 22

Sta 43 - Clive pays 40% of personnel costs at this new Urbandale FD station

I dont have exact info on which vehicles are in which stations and who
owns which stations - I suspect that Clive just owns Sta 32 and the
rigs therein - and possibly Clive staff only work from Sta 32 - so
basically they have 1 station, and half shares in 2 other stations

Baltimore FD - Rescue Alarm

https://youtu.be/TjQUYw9Iy_E?t=4023

at 10728 you will hear Eng 58 request a rescue assignment

at 10824 the call is announced - Rescue Alarm 58-31 on FG4 - MVC with
entrapment, Eng 58, Medic 9 on scene, (adding) Truck 21, Squad 26,
Rescue 1, BC6, BC EMS, EMS 6

Squad 26 is a Engine/Rescue

somehow a 2nd amb was at scene

2 transported

ambulance crew has turnouts in back of ambulance

looks like a car hit a parked pickup truck somehow headon

possible weak initial dispatch - weak initial alarm - insufficient
dispatch - deficient first alarm - deficient initial dispatch

surely the 911 call reported 2 injured people - maybe the 911 call did
not mention entrapment since damage was not major to car - maybe no
one went outside to see how many people were hurt

Only 2 FD in MI have MICU ambulances

Did you know that Detroit Metro Airport Fire Department is one of only
two fire departments in the State of Michigan to staff a fully
equipped M.I.C.U. (Mobile Intensive Care Unit)? Our MICU team has the
advanced tools and training to provide the highest level of ground
transport available. The MICU team is ready and available 24/7 to
transport critically ill and injured patients to the proper facilities
needed for definitive care. In addition to routine BLS/ALS ambulance
equipment, our MICU ambulance is outfitted with advanced airway
management devices, a cardiac monitor with temperature and invasive
pressure monitoring capabilities, a ventilator, and IV pumps. This is
just one more way DMAFD proudly serves DTW and our surrounding cities.

USA - info about industrial fire departments

general info

there seems to be 2 levels of industrial fire departments - incipient
fire brigades and full blown fire brigades

incipient fire brigades might use portable fire extinguishers only -
and maybe fixed monitors

possibly the incipient fire brigades do not have SCBA - but they might
have fire coats, pants, helmets, gloves, etc

industrial hazmat units seem to be of 2 or 3 types - many sites have
scba and patch kits too handle small ammonia leaks - some sites have
full blown hazmat teams with mobile units (haz mat trucks) and spill
control equipment

many sites have Emergency Response Teams - they can be a mixture of
fire, rescue, ems, hazmat, spill control functions

maybe EPA + OSHA + NFPA + industrial + insurance regulations determine
the level of protection at any given site

there are Emergency Action Plans (for smaller sites) and Emergency
Response Plans (for larger sites) - maybe required by EPA regs

1 minute video - 9/11 - first plane hits

https://youtu.be/miA8Td4oNcY

apparently this is the ONLY video of the actual hit

hard to believe - and the cameraman could have easily missed it

just noticed that he shot the towers before the plane hit - so he knew
he had the camera angle (maybe way back in his mind)

just yesterday I heard a small plane nearby - immediately I started to
scan the sky outside the window - we dont have too many small planes
around here usually so it was somewhat unusual - maybe we get 1 small
plane per week around here - the jetliners are more common - but they
are higher and quieter - at least they used to be - they have been
quiet for the last year

bryan young2 months ago
I dont understand why firefighters won't stop risking there life when
it comes to power lines down call the power company and have them
check to make sure the line is denergized before getting near the
lines. Just because its on the ground doesn't mean its dead. I work
with this stuff everyday day and people take too many chance when It
comes to down power lines dont get near them.

Wytheville VA - 4 minute response time

https://www.wdbj7.com/2021/03/13/one-year-after-fire-and-ems-services-merge-wytheville-sees-faster-response-times/

50% better since fire and ems merged

ems is quicker because they dont have to gear up

which poses an interesting question - what if rigs were set up to have 1 driver in front - with no gear on - and everyone else in back putting on gear as they travel to scene - saves 30 seconds to 60 seconds gearing up in station - pants - boots - jacket - hood - helmet - gloves - scba

I suspect that usually in the usa - for paid agencies going to fire calls - they put on all gear before stepping on truck - except for maybe hood and helmet and gloves and scba

my immediate thought is - nypd has 40K cops - why is there just 1 cop there?

some radio traffic heard

boston brush task force comms

If Boston Mass had to send a bunch of fire trucks out of state today - what radio channels would they use?

1. whatever direct channels they have in their portable radios would probably be OK - especially any BFD channels - they are at 483 and 486 mhz - no one else in the world uses those channels - except maybe 1 FD on Long Island or in NJ

2. dispatcher to convoy comms would be more difficult - there is no vehicle tracking system - there is no nationwide radio system - unless they have a satellite phone or a working cellphone - even then, there can be significant dead spots - iirc 151.145R is the official fire convoy channel in Massachusetts - but I have no idea if all of those repeaters are operational - there are approx 10 across Massachusetts - they can give some coverage out of state

going to Maine - 154.31 or 154.695? would be the channels to have

going to New Hampshire - probably 156.09 or 154.28 or 151.445 might work statewide - maybe - possibly - 154.19 or 159.90 and 154.355 and 154.43 would cover a huge part of the state - but those are very busy channels - and the right PLs are needed

going to RI - 154.28 would be great

going to Connecticut - maybe 154.265 or 154.295 could work statewide if the right PLs are used

There is the possibility that the Interops channels might be operational across New England - not sure how reliable they are - 151.1375 - 155.7675? - 453.2125? - 851.0125 - etc

The Mass EMA VHF Net is very complicated - but it does cover the entire state

ham radio channels could be used - but a  million channels and PLs are needed - and there are legal issues I AM SURE
