Just noticed this. Is Commander Equipment Supply the new dealer for E-One for the area? Wasn't it Nichols?

What happens in a combination department, that has career leadership for the career guys, and volunteer leadership for the volunteers? Who is ultimately responsible in the eyes of PESH?

I disagree. I'm sure, in situations like Port Chester, they'd rather see it here first then when they showed up at work with an action that came out of nowhere? I know I'd sure want a heads up no matter how the information came about so action can be taken ASAP.

Hearing 60 Control dispatching Yonkers? What's going on there?

SPRING VALLEY — Rockland’s water company has partially walked back from its refusal to provide the volunteer fire department with what one official called critical information about the village's water supply. Suez has agreed to give the village’s fire department previously classified data about where all fire hydrants are located, and their recent pressure readings and flow rates, said Bill Madden, director of external affairs with Suez New York. http://www.lohud.com/story/news/local/rockland/2016/05/24/suez-spring-valley-fire-hydrants/84859892/

According to MSA it's not available yet. It's also not hands free, or silica free.

MSA wishes. The gauge mounted technology they showcased was basically a pedometer and they claimed that it was going to that base for a lot of other technologies..in the future. It's basically the same as looking down at a TIC so I don't see the point. When they told me the gauge was kept dry by a silica pack that you have to change every month and I couldn't bang the demo against the display I laughed and walked away.
