This week the Tactical Fire Problem involves an older downtown area.

1.) What is your B I R (Brief Initial Report) in C A N format?

2.) What additional resources will you need? (Figure this out with apparatus and manpower and then figure out how long it will take for those resources to arrive)

3.) What does the age of the building have to do with potential for fire spread?

4.) What obstructions to ladder work are present? What does that mean for the tactics?

5.0 What size line and how long to make the stretch to the fire room? How about to the floor above?

If you need further training on your downtown area on fire, please contact Captain Joe Pronesti from Elyria Ohio Fire at efd33@gmail.com. Captain Pronesti has extensive training on this very topic.
