The Warehouse Point Fire District Responder
Established 1910 Commission Chairman - Victor DeCapua Fire Chief - James Barton Fire Marshal - Christy Delvey 860-623-5596 The Warehouse Point Fire District Responder Vol. 2 No. 1 Warehouse Point Fire District Views New Squad 238 The long awaited replacement for Engine 238, assuring the District maintains its favorable ISO rating, will be commissioned into the fire department shortly. An engine inspection team from WPFD inspected the vehicle, prior to its shipping, to ensure that the apparatus had been built to specification and that nothing had been added or deleted from the original prints. A “wet down” (traditionally, when new equipment arrived, local and neighboring town firefighters ceremoniously pushed the vehicle into the fire station. Today with the size and weight of the fire engines, the apparatus is driven into its new home as firefighters place their hands on the bumper) will take place within the next few weeks. The fire commissioners of the District want to thank all who supported this endeavor. Firefighting News The Fire Department responded to 102 alarms from July 1 through September 30, this year. Of the 102 alarms, 30 were fire alarms; 25 motor vehicle accidents; 16 mutual aid calls; 9 outside burning; 6 smoke in building investigations; 5 vehicle fires; 5 medical aid calls; 5 assist public non-emergency; 4 hazard materials spills; 3 CO calls; 2 utility wires on ground; and 3 assist police. Most notable were the recovery of a drowning victim from the Connecticut River, which took nearly 3 hours. A young boy on a bicycle equipped with training wheels had to be extricated from this bike when his foot became stuck in the frame.

Proposal for Next Generation Fire Attack Hose: Phase I
Proposal for Next Generation Fire Attack Hose: Phase I Summary Our motivation is to prevent injury and/or death of firefighters from the catastrophic failure of fire attack hose during fire-fighting operations. The goal of this initial project is to lay the groundwork for the future production and widespread adaption by the fire service of a fire proof attack hose. This initial study is funded by the Last Call Foundation and conducted in memory of fire- fighter Michael Kennedy, who was killed in the line-of-duty and was carrying a fire attack hose that burnt through during firefighting operations. This project analyzes, synthesizes, and documents the current state-of-the-art in fire hose manufacturing, materials currently used, applicable codes, standards, and approvals processes in the US, and most importantly the functionality requirements of the fire service. Photo credit: Boston Globe This in-depth research will be conducted in Start Date: collaboration with all major stakeholders November 1, 2014 including; representatives of various fire fighter End Date: groups, NFPA, NIOSH, the fire hose July 31, 2015 manufacturers, material scientists, and a combination of chemical, civil, mechanical, and fire protection engineers. Lead Organizational Unit: WPI Fire Protection Engineering Research by two distinct WPI teams will be followed with a stakeholder’s workshop to be held Source of Extramural Funding: at and facilitated by WPI. The result of this phase of the research is finalization of a small group of Last Call Foundation in Honor of Firefighter new materials and/or combinations of materials to Michael Kennedy be evaluated for their potential use in the construction of a fire attack hose.

Commonly Used Fire Terminology.Pdf
- Commonly Used Fire Department Terminology - Air Attack: Fixed-wing aircraft that directs air tanker drops on a wildland fire. The air attack orbits above all air tankers and copters and serves as an “eye in the sky” over the incident. The air attack includes the pilot and the air attack supervisor and communicates directly with the ground Incident Commander and other aircraft assigned to the incident; including media helicopters. Air Tanker: Fire retardant-dropping, fixed-wing aircraft. Air tankers are “typed” similar to engines, based upon the needs of the incident and capability. Backfire: A fire set along the inner edge of a fire line to consume the fuel in the path of a wildfire or change the direction of force of the fire's convection column Battalion: A geographic area consisting of one or more stations supervised by a Battalion Chief. Brush Engine: A mobile piece of fire equipment which carries hose, water and a pump, and is specially designed for off road wildland firefighting. CAD: Computer Aided Dispatch System. Used by Public Safety Communications Officers in the Emergency Command Center. This automated system verifies address information, recommends units to respond based upon the “closest resource concept”, time-stamps all activities tied to the incident (report time, response and on-scene time and other timekeeping functions). Contained: The status of a wildfire suppression action signifying that a control line has been completed around the fire, and any associated spot fires, which can reasonably be expected to stop the fire’s spread. Controlled: The completion of control line around a fire, any spot fires therefrom, and any interior islands to be saved; burned out any unburned area adjacent to the fire side of the control lines; and cool down all hot spots that are immediate threats to the control line, until the lines can reasonably be expected to hold under the foreseeable conditions.
