Fort Lee has a tanker? Is this because of the extensive highways that run through it? Or the many difficult to access hydrant areas?

On FLFD's Website, FL-3 (located at CO. 3) was a Simon-Duplex tanker / foam unit ( http://fortleefire.org/FL-3.jpg ) and the old FL-3 before the Duplex ( http://fortleefire.org/Old_FL3.jpg). I would assume like Seth said, this was set up for the highways.

yup for the highway's routes 80 95 4 & 46 and 9w all heavy truck traffic areas I am sure it will see use on brushfires too Edited by vodoly

i was told Fort lee FL 3 was part of a tanker task force to jersey city during a water emergency a few years back so it will see that type of work too :D
