Hauling Water - Wayne County, NY Style!

By President Mark Davis

On Sunday afternoon October 8th, folks from the Clyde Fire Department and several other surrounding fire departments put their rural water supply skills to the test as they practiced hauling water for 2-hours using tankers. The drill culminated our 16-hr Rural Water Supply Operations Seminar that was sponsored by the Clyde-Galen Fire District and hosted by the Clyde Fire Department. Eight tankers, three pumpers, and two fill sites were used to support the 2-hour drill where a peak flow of 1000 gpm was attained during the latter part of the event. The folks worked hard and had to overcome a couple of issues that arose but in the end everyone did a really great job keeping that water flowing - even after losing two tankers to a nearby structure fire. Many thanks to the Clyde Fire Department and its members for the excellent logistical support and food! Instructors for the weekend were Mark Davis and Alan Butsch.

Units: Clyde Engine 44, Clyde Engine 48, Clyde Engine 49, Clyde Quint 3, Oaks Corners Engine 3231, Savannah Engine 51, Savannah Tanker 27, Fayette Tanker 421, Junius Tanker 722, Waterloo Tanker 1621, Wolcott Tanker 31, and Fairville Tanker 15.
