What is in your departments hydrant bag?

I am looking for more information on standard operating guidelines for those departments that assist ems on a regular basis. More importantly if it is really beneficial and worth starting such a system in departments that dont do it. I am particularly interested in local volunteer departments that do it.

I saw it in Syracuse... It's a monster!!!

From what I have been told, the mini-bus you are talking about is going to be designated Utility 66. I'm not sure what is going to be used for exactly.
