Firefighting Operations - Areas Without Fire Hydrants
Firefighting in areas without fire hydrants involve the use of multiple tanker trucks to shuttle water from fire hydrants to the fire scene. Tankers discharge the water into portable folding tanks allowing them to quickly dump the water and head back to the fill site to refill. This process is continued until the fire is out.
