If all it takes is 2000 posts and 100 pages, why hasn't a Westchester consolidation topic been started. Bet we could hit those numbers fast.

I am curious as to what happens to the local courts and the fines. Does the county take over the courts, and does the town lose the revenue from fines ?

Personally I like it the way it is.. I do not look at every IA for say New England but when one pops up with that is out of the ordinary I will check it out( same goes for the other regions). As far as posting links to news articles sometimes a incident is missed, so the link provides the best info available at the time.. Maybe add a additional category for just news links. I look at IA posts the same as all other posts if it does not interest me I don't read it, if you don't care about upstate don't read about upstate.

For over a century, researchers have debated whether or not wood exposed to long-term, low-temperature heat sources can exhibit spontaneous combustion. Vytenis Babrauskas, author of Ignition Handbook, argues that ignition is possible for wood building members exposed to temperatures as low as 77oC (170oF) for long time periods (months to years). Due to internal heating (self-heating), a reactive char forms under oxygen-deficient conditions and eventually ignites as oxygen enters newly-formed cracks. Examples that we may encounter in the field include wood floor/ceiling assemblies penetrated by steam/hot water supply pipes or ducts. For the sake of comparison, external heating applies to the ignition of wood exposed to higher temperatures of around 250oC (482oF) for periods no longer than a few hours. Most causes of fire probably fall under this category.
For the fire investigators and chief officers out there, have any of you determined that a fire was caused by self-heating or pyrophoric carbon? Conversely, does anybody think that long-term, low-temperature ignition of wood isn't possible? My knowledge is limited, but I understand that this topic is controversial in the fire investigation community. For more information, click the link below.

The pickup is used by the public works to carry their confined space equipment. All of the public works confined space equipment is stored in the truck 24/7. They(public works) have certain employees trained in confined space. This truck and equipment is totally separate from the FD. Currently it is set up that the FD is notified of any confined space entry by DPW, if it is expected to be a extended entry the FD will be asked to standby on scene. Ladder 25 carries a complete confined space rescue set up. The career staff is trained in confined space rescue, with the volunteers trained in confined space awareness. Public Works and the FD started joint training in 2001 or 2002. In that time training has taken place annually with public works and other neighboring depts. The most recent confined space rescue training was completed in January with a public works foreman and three police officers attending(below is a link to a article in the local rag).

Technically as long as the county is still using it, it would be in service right
Considering that it was quite a stretch to say E 193 was " In service" and ISO counted that as the 3rd engine to reach 3500 gpm, How hard would it be to say nothing has changed.

Good thing the ISO review was done before we got rid of it. Now we have almost 10 years before they come back to look again. Maybe we will get a new 2000 gpm engine before that.

I don't understand what you are trying to ask would you please elucidate for me. thanks
