  1. Ardsley operates a Quint

    It is the first due to all strutce fire and automantic alarms

    Yes we are because we have a another truck that has water on it and can do more we can operate a land hind with out be hooked up to a hyrdant which helps if there are only 3 or 4 people on hte truck

    Truck company

    400 gallons and 1500 gpm and no it has not pushed the limts of the safe GVW

    Yes we can cause now if their are only enough guys to get a line in then we don't have to worry about getting hooked up to a hyrdant right away we have tank water also the pump operator can do more besides just moiving the ladder around.


  2. i don't know of any in Westchester, except for Yonkers EMS/Empress, which is a Haz-Tac unit , but i can tell you that in Rhode Island there are several different stations that are part of the state wide Haz-Mat team. For example one station is a de-con, another one is a entry team, and so on. That would be a great idea for Westchester to do.

  4. i think that their should be a county wide fire system with one central dispatching system and each department should be # like the way that they do i rockland, Prince George County MD, or like the way they do it in Delaware County PA. this makes it a lot easier when giving out # for rigs and could also be linked to the county ems system suggested by 801 and RWC130
