This publication does not alter or determine compliance responsibilities which are set forth in OSHA standards and the Occupational Safety and Health Act.

  • TR-151 the Danvers Butchery Meat Market and Cold Storage
    U.S. Fire Administration/Technical Report Series The Danvers Butchery Meat Market and Cold Storage Danvers, Massachusetts USFA-TR-151/January 2004 U.S. Fire Administration Fire Investigations Program he U.S. Fire Administration develops reports on selected major fires throughout the country. The fires usually involve multiple deaths or a large loss of property. But the primary criterion T for deciding to do a report is whether it will result in significant “lessons learned.” In some cases these lessons bring to light new knowledge about fire--the effect of building construction or contents, human behavior in fire, etc. In other cases, the lessons are not new but are serious enough to highlight once again, with yet another fire tragedy report. In some cases, special reports are devel- oped to discuss events, drills, or new technologies which are of interest to the fire service. The reports are sent to fire magazines and are distributed at National and Regional fire meetings. The International Association of Fire Chiefs assists the USFA in disseminating the findings throughout the fire service. On a continuing basis the reports are available on request from the USFA; announce- ments of their availability are published widely in fire journals and newsletters. This body of work provides detailed information on the nature of the fire problem for policymakers who must decide on allocations of resources between fire and other pressing problems, and within the fire service to improve codes and code enforcement, training, public fire education, building technology, and other related areas. The Fire Administration, which has no regulatory authority, sends an experienced fire investigator into a community after a major incident only after having conferred with the local fire authorities to insure that the assistance and presence of the USFA would be supportive and would in no way interfere with any review of the incident they are themselves conducting.

  • Global Response R5: Wildfire Protection and Evacuation Overview the Fire Protection Plan (FPP) Discloses That the Project Site
    Response to Comments – 2019 Recirculated Draft EIR Global Response R5: Wildfire Protection and Evacuation Overview The Fire Protection Plan (FPP) discloses that the project site is located within a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (VHFHSZ). Specifically, page 2 states that “code compliance is an important component of the requirements of this FPP, given the project site’s wildland/urban interface (WUI) location that is within an area statutorily designated as a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone by CAL FIRE (FRAP 2015).” Due to its location in a VHFHSZ, the Proposed Project is required to provide for a specified level of planning, ignition resistant construction, access, water availability, fuel modification, and construction materials and methods that have been developed specifically to allow safe development within these areas. Due to the Project Area’s location within a VHFHSZ, a Fire Protection Plan (Draft EIR, Appendix C-21), The Otay Ranch Resort Village Fire Protection Plan (Recirculated EIR, Appendix D-21), and The Fire Protection Plan Supplemental Analysis Otay Ranch Resort Village 13 – Alternative H have been prepared for the Proposed Project. The San Diego County Fire Authority (SDCFA) has reviewed the Proposed Project’s Fire Protection Plan and accepted it on October 2, 2018. The Conceptual Wildland Fire Evacuation Plan was reviewed and input was provided in September 2018 by SDCFA. SDCFA does not “accept” evacuation plans. Collectively, the Fire Protection Plan and Wildland Fire Evacuation Plan address several important aspects, including fire history, fire behavior modeling based on site vegetation and climate, project design, compliance with applicable fire codes, and emergency evacuation.

  • Fresno Fire Department (FFD Or Department) Members a Standard Operating Procedure for Quint Fire Apparatus (Quints)
    STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES MANUAL APPARATUS AND EQUIPMENT 207.003 QUINT PROCEDURES EFFECTIVE: OCTOBER 2007 Current Revision Date: 2/20/19 Next Revision Date: 2/20/24 Robert J. Garcia, Author’s Name/Rank: Firefighter Specialist Review Level: 1 Christina L. Johnson, Administrative Support: Senior Administrative Clerk PURPOSE The purpose of this policy is to provide Fresno Fire Department (FFD or Department) members a standard operating procedure for quint fire apparatus (quints). APPLICATION This standard operating procedure is developed to assist members in the use of quint multi-function specialty fire apparatus OPERATIONAL POLICY Due to the individual complexity of every incident the Department responds to, and to the many features of a quint fire apparatus, not all emergency and routine situations can be addressed in this standard operating procedure. Therefore, it is incumbent upon all company officers and incident commanders to be prudent in their judgment with the use of these multi-purpose vehicles. Quints shall not compete with engine companies for the purpose of initiating fire attack operations OPERATIONAL GUIDELINE The quints’ primary responsibilities are to perform truck company operations. They are not intended to replace engine companies. They are to be used as truck companies with enhanced capabilities. Quints should not be dispatched to vegetation fires as fire suppression units due to their limited mobility. Quints may be requested by an engine company for additional staffing, if necessary. Section 207.003 Page 1 of 3 PROCESS This section intentionally left blank. INFORMATION Quint means five. In the fire service this means a triple combination pumper equipped with the NFPA 1901: Standard for Automotive Fire Apparatus (NFPA 1901), Chapter 9, Quint Fire Apparatus recommended complement of ground ladders and an aerial ladder.
