more info on TN wildfire
from https://www.knoxnews.com/story/news/environment/2022/03/31/wears-valley-fire-firefighters-continue-battle-wildfire/7225148001/
A Thursday morning press conference provided updates on the fire,
which is only 5% contained. Sevier County Mayor Larry Waters told
reporters officials have no reports of deaths or missing people.
The Hatcher Mountain Fire has impacted 100 structures and 3,700 acres,
not including spot fires across the county. Five firefighting vehicles
have been damaged.
Although the fire approached Pigeon Forge, Waters said, it did not
reach city limits.
Around 8 a.m., the first two Blackhawk helicopters departed from
McGhee Tyson Air National Guard Base with Bambi Buckets used to
provide hundreds of gallons of water to fight wildfires. Each aircraft
will make multiple trips. The Blackhawks will pick up water from
nearby water sources and transport it directly to the needed area. Two
more Blackhawks crews left at 10 a.m. and two more crews were to
deploy at noon.
At approximately 11:30 a.m., one of the helicopters experienced engine
failure, resulting in an emergency landing southwest of Wears Valley.
All four crew members were safe, and no injuries were reported. The
aircraft incurred minor damage upon landing.

bad hydrant at Forestville MD fire
https://youtu.be/uRkhYytV2ds
if they knew the private hydrants were no good ... why was there a 7
minute delay?
seems like it would be a good idea to have the first engine start fire
attack with tank water and then have the 2nd engine reverse lay to the
good hydrant ... or ,,, have the first engine drop their feeder and
have the 2nd engine 'pick it up' ... which they were doing back in
1982 ... maye they dont do that anymore ... oh well

2022 Boston Marathon Participant Guide / runners guide
https://www.baa.org/sites/default/files/2022-03/2022%20Participant%20Guide.pdf
MEDICAL
The B.A.A. and the Boston Marathon Medical Team urge all participants
to consult their personal
physicians prior to training and participating in the marathon.
Traditionally, distance running is
a safe and healthy form of exercise, but there are inherent risks
associated with running extreme
distances, especially if you have certain pre-existing medical
conditions. Only a physician
familiar with your personal medical history, current health status,
medications, and your
pre-existing risk factors can advise you as to whether you are fit to
run the Boston Marathon.
Taking these simple steps and heeding the advice of your personal
physician will give you the
ability to make the right decisions and enjoy a healthy race.
SERVICES
Medical Services - The Start in Hopkinton
The Athletes' Village in Hopkinton will include a medical tent and
roving medical teams that can
help with most last-minute medical needs. Band-Aids, Vaseline, a
pre-race stretch, or just a word
of encouragement can be offered by our medical team.
Please complete two very important tasks before leaving Hopkinton: 1.)
Write your current or
pre-event weight on the back of your bib. This figure may help us
determine if you've been
over-drinking during the event. 2.) It is also very important that you
complete the emergency
contact information on the back of your bib. Information such as
allergies, medical conditions,
and two emergency telephone numbers should be included. If possible,
one of the emergency
contact numbers should be someone waiting for you near the finish.
This year, the Boston Ath-
letic Association is partnering with Race Safe, who in turn will allow
runners to electronically enter
pertinent medical histories for this program.
Medical Services - On-course
The Boston Athletic Association provides 26 medical stations
strategically located along the
course. Each tent is staffed with a variety of medical professionals,
offering basic first aid to those
in need. Course medical coverage is supported with ambulances and EMS
bike teams provided by
Transformative Ambulance, Brewster Ambulance, and the Cataldo Ambulance Company.

Re: boston marathon will be on monday april 18 2022
lets think about public safety comms for the marathon
1. each city and town controls public safety ops in their town ...
except maybe for a dozen state police motorcycles that escort the
elite runners ... and the state police helos and maybe some specialty
teams
2. most of the city and town race radio traffic can be handled on
existing main and 2ndary radio channels ... except that Boston only
has 1.5 2ndary police radio channels (Ch 1 and maybe Ch 7] ... we
suspect they do lots of comms on cell phones now .. which works fine
till SHTF
3. mutual aid radio channels are available for police and fire ..
MetroFire and Fire District 14 ... BApern 3 and 4 and W and Central
... most of these channels are held in reserve it seems
4. maybe the best plan is to make sure that the state police helo
responds immediately to any incident and starts to do a running
commentary on Bapern 3 or 4 or west or central
5. typically the UHF and 800/700 channels are patched together ...
this is mainly needed because Mass State police uses 800/700 and
everyone else uses UHF
6. the Interops channels should be alive ... 158.73 + Vcall + Ucall +
Icall ... maybe they are also held in reserve ... maybe 470.0125 also
7. ambulance mutual aid can maybe be done on Med 4 or BAMA ... maybe
8. the feds must be using their own channels and doing their own
things ... fbi ... fema .. dea ... cia ... dia ... starwars etc

NICC, National Resources will be dispatched by the dispatch center
hosting the resource at the time of request.
• When ordering helicopters specifically for their rappel capability,
these resources will be ordered as IA Load, Rappellers, in IROC.
• Helicopters ordered specifically for short haul capability, will be
ordered as either Type 2 Standard, Helicopter, or Type 3 Standard,
Helicopter, with the Short-Haul capability feature in IROC. The
capability should also be defined in the "Special Needs" block of the
Resource Order as short haul capability.
• Periodically, Forest Service Type 1 and Type 2 Exclusive Use
Helicopters not within their Mandatory Availability Period (MAP) are
hired under their Exclusive Use Contract for optional use periods for
incidents or projects. A modification to the Exclusive Use Contract is
required for the duration of the incident assignment. The Exclusive
Use Contract designates the COR.
• If a Forest Service Exclusive Use Helicopter Manager is not
immediately available, the requestion Geographic Area will assign a
Helicopter Manager. The designated Helicopter Manager will then manage
the helicopter thereafter. The COR will be notified that the Exclusive
Use Helicopter is being dispatched.
Forest Service Type 1 and Type 2 Helicopters
All Forest Service CWN and EU T1/T2 Helicopters & modules
(helitack/rappellers), are National Resources, prepositioned and
allocated by the NICC/National Aircraft Coordinator, in alignment with
the NMAC and
Agency prioritization and direction.
Forest Service EU helicopter utilization is closely monitored. In some
cases, underutilized resources will be reallocated nationally, to
higher priority incidents or geographic areas. When requested by the
NICC, GACCs will make these aircraft available to the NICC.
As such, if a GACC has a need to backfill behind a Forest Service EU
helicopter, that GACC will show the need by placing a request to the
NICC. In no situation, will a GACC remove a Forest Service EU
helicopter from another geographic area, without coordination with the
NICC and /or the National Aircraft
Coordinator. The standard 14-day assignment applies to the crew and
not the helicopter platform. Module leaders are expected to rotate
their crew in order to maintain helicopter availability. Extenuating
circumstances will be honored and coordinated with the Forest Service
National Aircraft Coordinator. For
additional direction please reference the NWCG Standard for Helicopter
Operations and the FSM 5700.
BLM Type 1 Helicopter
The BLM Type 1 Helicopter's primary mission is initial attack. While
most effective at providing rapid initial response, the crew is well
equipped to respond to extended attack incidents and critical need
missions on large fires. In order to retain this helicopter and crew
beyond initial attack for extended attack incidents, a request will be
made to the GACC. Extended attack incidents that utilize the crew to
fill critical positions, should immediately order replacement
personnel for those positions in case the aircraft and crew are
reassigned.
R9 EXCLUSIVE USE CONTRACT HELICOPTERS
Prioritization for FS Eastern Region exclusive use helicopters will be
accomplished by the EACC through the Region 9 Fire Operations,
Regional Aviation Officer, and the EACC Center Manager.
Type 3 Exclusive use Helicopters
● The Forest Service (FS) Eastern Region has established a Type 3
Exclusive Use Helicopter Program for the 2022 operating period. The
program provides regional guidelines for this shared resource between
all Eastern Region National Forests. The Exclusive Use Type 3
helicopters are contracted for initial attack, support of wildland
fire suppression, and prescribed fire activities. The helicopters are
hosted by the National Forests listed below. These units provide
administrative management support for the four helicopter contracts.

immediately available, the requestion Geographic Area will assign a
Helicopter Manager. The designated Helicopter Manager will then manage
the helicopter thereafter. The COR will be notified that the Exclusive
Use Helicopter is being dispatched.
Forest Service Type 1 and Type 2 Helicopters
All Forest Service CWN and EU T1/T2 Helicopters & modules
(helitack/rappellers), are National Resources, prepositioned and
allocated by the NICC/National Aircraft Coordinator, in alignment with
the NMAC and
Agency prioritization and direction.
Forest Service EU helicopter utilization is closely monitored. In some
cases, underutilized resources will be reallocated nationally, to
higher priority incidents or geographic areas. When requested by the
NICC, GACCs will make these aircraft available to the NICC.
As such, if a GACC has a need to backfill behind a Forest Service EU
helicopter, that GACC will show the need by placing a request to the
NICC. In no situation, will a GACC remove a Forest Service EU
helicopter from another geographic area, without coordination with the
NICC and /or the National Aircraft
Coordinator. The standard 14-day assignment applies to the crew and
not the helicopter platform. Module leaders are expected to rotate
their crew in order to maintain helicopter availability. Extenuating
circumstances will be honored and coordinated with the Forest Service
National Aircraft Coordinator. For
additional direction please reference the NWCG Standard for Helicopter
Operations and the FSM 5700.
BLM Type 1 Helicopter
The BLM Type 1 Helicopter's primary mission is initial attack. While
most effective at providing rapid initial response, the crew is well
equipped to respond to extended attack incidents and critical need
missions on large fires. In order to retain this helicopter and crew
beyond initial attack for extended attack incidents, a request will be
made to the GACC. Extended attack incidents that utilize the crew to
fill critical positions, should immediately order replacement
personnel for those positions in case the aircraft and crew are
reassigned.
R9 EXCLUSIVE USE CONTRACT HELICOPTERS
Prioritization for FS Eastern Region exclusive use helicopters will be
accomplished by the EACC through the Region 9 Fire Operations,
Regional Aviation Officer, and the EACC Center Manager.
Type 3 Exclusive use Helicopters
● The Forest Service (FS) Eastern Region has established a Type 3
Exclusive Use Helicopter Program for the 2022 operating period. The
program provides regional guidelines for this shared resource between
all Eastern Region National Forests. The Exclusive Use Type 3
helicopters are contracted for initial attack, support of wildland
fire suppression, and prescribed fire activities. The helicopters are
hosted by the National Forests listed below. These units provide
administrative management support for the four helicopter contracts.

This story is from the Boston Globe archives. It was originally
published on June 3, 1967
A silent "sit-in" protest against City of Boston welfare practices
escalated into a five-block-wide 11-hour riot in the Grove Hall
section of Roxbury Friday night and early this morning.
Efforts by police to clear the building and free the Welfare Dept.
workers trapped inside at 515 Blue Hill av. triggered a series of
rock-throwing incidents. The crowd swelled to what police estimated to
be from 500 to 700.
Civil rights leader Thomas Atkins was arrested at 2:15 this morning
Atkins, vice chairman of Boston Branch, National Assn. for the
Advancement of Colored People, was arrested as he stood on the steps
of Operation Exodus headquarters on Blue Hill av., according to
Kenneth Guscott, branch chairman.
At 3:30 a.m. no charges had been lodged against Atkins.
Shortly after the trouble broke out 200 Boston police were at the
scene or standing at the ready, armed with riot guns, shotguns and
bayonets.
Police set up a huge detention center at nearby White Stadium for the
processing and medical treatment of those arrested.
The Boston Fire Department, plagued by a rash of alarms within the
riot area, went on its emergency plan. Boston City Hospital also
instituted its disaster plan.
Police Comr. Edmund L. McNamara and Supt. Herbert F. Mullaney directed
operations from police headquarters.
Arrested with Atkins was Byron Rushing, field director of the
Massachusetts Council of Churches commission on church and race. He
was charged with disturbing the peace. Guscott claimed Atkins was
"clubbed" by police during the arrest.
The arrest followed by 15 minutes the outbreak of gunfire at Intervale
st. and Blue Hill av.
Police fired 60 rounds over the heads of 200 demonstrators. No
injuries were reported.
Police fired into darkened Intervale st. after they had been fired
upon by at least one sniper.
Violence began shortly before 5 p.m. when 50 protesting women from the
predominantly Negro Roxbury section locked themselves into the welfare
office building
Tension mounted in the crowd outside when police tried to remove
protesting women from a city-owned building. A woman screamed. Glass
shattered. Physical contact followed. In a flash of spontaneity
disorder broke out.
Thirty persons were arrested and another 30 - many requiring
hospitalization - were injured.
Widespread vandalism, ranging from the breaking of windows to the
looting and burning of stores and buildings was reported.
Mayor Collins, who returned Thursday night from a vacation in Ireland
deplored the "unfortunate conduct."
"This lawlessness cannot and will not be tolerated," Collins said.
The city's chief executive expressed his "willingness to meet with any
group" and offers to meet with community leaders in the morning.
Shortly after midnight, Mulloney ordered all first - half men - those
scheduled to work until 12:30 a.m. today - to remain on duty pending
further orders.
A two-alarm fire at a furniture store on the 300-block of Blue Hill
av. - in the middle of the riot area - was described by Dist. Fire
Chief Joseph Kilduff as "definitely arson."
Kilduff said when he arrived flames were licking out of the broken
windows of Cohen's Furniture Mart, Inc., at No. 347 and "20 to 30
teenagers and adults were running through, smashing looting and
torching."
Directly across the street, looters smashed out windows of a shoe
store, a hardware and a variety store, scattering debris all over the
street.
Looting also was reported at Warren's Furniture Co., at a package
store and a cleaning establishment. Police in the looting area,
carrying .30 caliber carbines, looked up frequently as if fearing
sniper activity.
All off-duty police were called in, bringing the force on duty to
between 1600 and 1700 men.
The disturbance took on the nature of a series of grass fires-as soon
as one eruption was quelled, another broke out nearby. There was some
looting in the area.
Police and civilian vehicles were battered and smashed by the rocks,
bottles, bricks and sticks thrown by the crowd. A fire engine
windshield was smashed by a rock when it responded to a building fire
in the area.
At 9:25, police ordered all cars stopped at Dudley and Warren sts.,
blocked passage on Blue Hill av. and detoured traffic from the Grove
Hall section.
Fire Chief john E. Cloughtery, in a special radio message to all
department personnel at 12:30 a.m. , told all companies they would be
protected by police in answering all alarms within the riot area.
He was followed by Fire Comr. William Fitzgerald, who said the special
riot plan was in effect - the department will respond to all alarms
and all companies will be protected by armed police.
When the protesters and the men guarding them in the building were
brought out forcibly, police were pelted by bricks and bottles.
Small engagements broke out all around the welfare building.
More police were sent in. Riot guns were issued.
After the original group of nine men and four women were taken off in
patrol waggons - the men to the Dudley st. station, the women to the
women's detention section of the City prison on Somerset st. - quiet
returned.
But it was short-lived.
A band of six adolescents brandishing bottles engaged police. Two were
arrested and hauled off.
The crowd answered with a shower of missiles.
At 7:35 Mrs. Ellen Jackson, director of Operation Exodus; Rev. Virgil
Wood, director of the Opportunities Industrialization Center and
social worker Noel Day arrived and tried to help police quiet the
crowd.
But, as the trio attempted to talk with police, the unruly crowd
resumed hissing, jeering and throwing rocks and bottles.
Police tried to clear the street. One fight after another broke out.
The civil rights leaders met with police officials, represented by
Dep. Supt. Edward W. Mannix at Exodus offices, 378 Blue Hill av., to
find ways to halt the disorder.
Meanwhile, 58 workers at the welfare office - social workers,
supervisors and clerical workers - were held in protective custody on
the second floor of the building.
Shortly after 8:30 police formed a flying wedge and burst out of the
building, walking the workers to seaver st. where cruisers took them
to public transportation.
Those arrested were booked on a variety of complaints participating in
an affray to assault and battery.
Attorney Archie Williams, on the scene in the event the women were
arrested, and himself arrested in the melee, charged police brutality.
"When the police arrived they joked with the people at first and then
all hell broke loose."
Sam Bell, 22 of Greenheys st. Dorchester, another of those booked at
the Dudley st. station, claimed he had been "worked over" by police.
Bell, with a cut over his right eye, charged he was "pushed into the
corner of the booking room by four cops who when over me with their
fists and nightsticks."
Mrs. Lilly Landrum of Intervale st., one of the sit-ins, charged she
heard police officials order that demonstrators be "beaten up, not
just taken out of the building."
Collins, in his statement, said the tradition of "peaceful relations
and dialogue, which has kept this city free of difficulty and racial
unrest, is too precious to be destroyed by ranging from trespassing
and troublemakers."
Meeting early today with police Comr. Edmund L. McNamara and Supt.
John T. Howland were:
Kenneth Guscott, president of the Boston Chapter, N.A.A.C.P.; Thomas
Atkins, another N.A.A.C.P. official; Guido St. Laurent, director of
NEGRO, a civil rights organization; James Bishop, secretary of the
governor's committee on interracial relations; and atty. Sanford
Kowal.
Following the half-hour meeting, Guscott said, "we have offered our
services as good citizens. We are trying to assist the police to bring
law and order.
"We will continue to assist them as long as we are needed."
He said a complaint bureau will be opened today at N.A.A.C.P.
headquarters at 451 Mass. av. to process complaints received from
citizens.
Guscott added, however, that police have always cooperated in
investigating previous complaints.
Comr. McNamara said the group meeting with him was "very helpful in
it's attitude."
"It is very helpful if any group aids the community." he added. "We
are soliciting the aid of any person or group willing to assist in
maintaining peace in the community."
Asked how long he intended to keep extra police on duty, the commissioner said"
"We intend to keep the men on duty until the various supervisors feel
the tense situation has been relieved and the threats and the threats
of violence have been averted."
The dismissal of City Welfare Director Cronin was demanded at a
meeting of the M.A.W., held after the riot at Operation Exodus
headquarters on Blue Hill av.
Mrs. Doris Bland, group president, also insisted that Cronin be
replaced by someone of the organization's choice.
The mothers further demanded:
-A work training program for mothers on welfare.
-Stipulation that mothers on welfare receive $85 per month in
benefits, plus 70 percent of what they earn over $85, all non-taxable.
-Representation of mothers on all welfare boards with decision-making powers.

The NRF is organized into three parts: the base document, Emergency
Support Function
(ESF) Annexes, and Support Annexes. The NRF organizes resources and
capabilities into 14
ESFs. Additional information on ESFs and the Coast Guard's roles and
responsibilities with
regard to them is located in Chapter 6. The Support Annexes include
supporting processes
and considerations for incident response.
1. Response - Federal Interagency Operational Plan (FIOP). The NRF
features the basis for
an integrated approach to synchronize planning efforts and clarify
agency roles and
responsibilities while serving as a foundation for more detailed
federal agency-specific
plans and operating procedures. The Response FIOP expands upon the
NRF, detailing
how the federal government delivers core capabilities for the mission
areas outlined in
the NPG and built upon NIMS concepts and principles reflecting the
whole community
concept.
The Response FIOP includes Incident-Specific Annexes. These annexes expand the
concepts within the Response FIOP to describe the missions, policies,
responsibilities,
and coordination processes across incident management and emergency response
operations for a wide spectrum of potential notice or no-notice
incidents, which require
specialized or unique responses such as chemical and oil response.
2. Stafford Act versus Non-Stafford Act and PPD-44. The NRF addresses
all domestic
response incidents in an all-hazards approach. Various federal
departments and agencies
hold statutory authority and jurisdiction to lead government response
activities for
specific incidents. For example, the Robert T. Stafford Disaster and
Emergency Relief
Act (Stafford Act) with FEMA acting as the lead federal agency guides
natural disasters.
Likewise, the Coast Guard and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) hold similar
authorities to respond to environmental contamination , with the USCG
as the lead for
coastal response and the EPA as the lead for inland response, under
the National Oil and
Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (National Contingency
Plan, NCP).
Recent incidents, to include the Flint Michigan water crisis and the
Southern Border
response, illustrated the need for more robust planning and
coordination across the
federal government for those incidents that do not fall under the
purview of the Stafford
Act. As a result, the release of Domestic Incident Response,
Presidential Policy Directive
44 (PPD-44) builds upon the guidance for Non-Stafford Act response
outlined in the
NRF and recognize the Lead Federal Agency (LFA) for given incident
types. The timely
identification of a LFA enhances the government's ability to form
effective coordinating
structures to manage a response and delineate lead roles.

arlington mass ... first annual report from electrical inspector 1900
the new electrical inspector was put in charge of the fire alarm system in 1900
A new pole was set for Box No. 13, on the corner of
Henderson and Sawin streets. The gong on Hose No. 4 House
was taken off that building and placed on the top of this
pole in a wood case, with wire netting in front and on the
sides of same. The sound of this gong can be heard more
distinctly over this district than ever before, as the old
location was between buildings and a considerable distance
back from the street
========
The tower bell striker on the Park Avenue Church at Arlington
Heights was also rewired. A new foundation was put under the
striker for this bell', also the frame of the bell was
braced to prevent shifting of the same, which has caused
considerable trouble in the past.
===========
some of the fire boxes had keys at homes ... some had keys under glass
... the new one at town hall had no key
