I haven't had a ton of contact with the committee, but given the information that has been relayed to me.... Paint that rig red and you've got the new Ladder 52.

I'd prefer to see it labeled as an Engine not a Ladder, but that is a different discussion for a different time.

We are looking to get the same exact rig. We are in the very early stages of specing this out. What are you guys looking to do with the rig? Will it serve as a Ladder, Quint or Engine? Also, how much hose, water and ladders are you looking to put on it? We are looking at other departments to see how they have set up this type of rig.

Last thing. Have you demoed the SL75 at your station and who did you go through?

Winona Lake, T/Newburgh, will be receiving their refurbished 87 Pierce Engine 322. It went OOS in July(?) and went back to Pierce for refurb. Tank was upped from 500 to 1000. Seats, lighting, etc brought up to current NFPA. Engine was supposed to be back in mid-November, but was delayed. We should have it sometime between Christmas and New Years.

New Hamburg Fire District just ordered a Sutphen SPH100 Tower. This will replace the 1987 Tower that is housed at Station 1. We should get this Tower late 2008.

Again, I'm not part of the committee and have been inactive since moving to Florida 3 years ago, BUT from what I understand it will be Ladder 52.

It will run as a Quint out of headquarters first due to all structure fires and general alarms within the district.

E-247 and/or MA-10 will continue to handle first due vehicle, brush, and second due engine responsibilities from HQ for the east side and E-248 and Tanker 15 will handle the first/second due general alarm and structure responsibilities (depending on arrival order with L-52) as well as first due vehicle and brush responsibilities on the west end.

I'm not sure what they did as far as demoing a unit. When I was on the committee to build E-248 in 2002-2003 I drove just about everything that Sutphen made. The guys might have just gone over Chappaqua's tower which is nearly identical to what MFC has on order minus the bucket. Mike Myers of Sutphen East was the rep for E-248 and I'd assume the same for the new ladder.
