Primary function of FDNY is water supply at aircraft incidents. They are also responsible for all structural incidents on property.
Once life safety priorities and extinguishment are accomplished by PAPD, the incident then becomes structural until the NTSB commences with the investigation.
ref: 10th ed. FDNY operational reference
Not so sure how the new ARFF guys fit into this plan as of yet.
Stay safe.

F.D.N.Y. Thread is 3.030 x 8 TPI
NYC (New York Corp Thread) is 3.00 x 8 TPI
**Threads Per Inch**
These threads because they are so close in size are constantly getting mixed up.
Eastchester, Mt. Vernon and Pelham Manor are listed as New York Corp
New Rochelle and Pelham are FDNY
In addition: You can put a FDNY Female on a NYC male coupling but you can not put a NYC Female on a FDNY male.
BE CAREFUL, this could create a bad situation on the fire ground.
Stay safe...

x635 liked a post in a topic by msm232 in Keeping The Water Can From Freezing
The correct term for "Freeze Protecting" a 2.5" gallon Water Fire Extinguisher is "Loaded Stream"
Any local fire extinguisher company should be able to provide. It comes in powered form and can be mixed in a 5 gallon bucket to get your desired result.
Meaning: The more you mix, the better the freeze protection, ie: 0, -10, -20 degree's.
Hope this helps.
Stay Safe.

x635 liked a post in a topic by msm232 in Made in the USA: Important When Purchasing?
This should sum it up:
According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), “Made in USA” means that “all or virtually all” the product was, indeed, made in America.
The agency enforces the standard to ensure commercial compliance and confirm consumer confidence.
For a “Made in USA” claim to be accurate, all significant parts, processing and labor that go into the product must be of U.S. origin.
Products should not contain any – or only negligible – foreign content.

x635 liked a post in a topic by msm232 in FDNY Testing Tracking Firefighters With Military-Developed Radio Tags
OK, I respect your opinion, Here is what I can tell you about how the Pak Tracker made it to FDNY. This project was in the works before 9/11 by some very well respected members of your department and not R&D. The idea was to put the PT into the PASS electronics and they had requested Scott to do it because it seemed like a logical choice. After 9/11, the program became a priority by your staff chief's because the department had very few options for tracking a downed member. I was at that meeting, and I can tell you, They were not asking Scott to do it... They were demanding it or they would find another manufacturer that would. Is it perfect, NO, but it adds NO WEIGHT to the members SCBA because of its integration to the PASS electronics. If a member gets jammed up and cant hit the mayday button, it will send the signal ie. L30-Chau to the receiver letting someone know there is a problem and that the member may need help. You are never going to please everyone but to say that this did not come at the request of FDNY is just untrue.
