Water Handling Equipment Guide This Interagency Water Handling Equipment Guide has been developed and published by the NWCG Fire Equipment Working Team (FEWT). A subcommittee was formed in 1980 and development of this Guide was accomplished in 1981 and 1982 with the first, second, third, and the fourth editions being published in June of 1983, 1985, 1988, and 1994 respectively. The NWCG FEWT subcommittee for the fifth edition consisted of: Ralph Taylor – USDA Forest Service Robert Stroud, Jr. – USDI Bureau of Land Management Tom Hutchison – USDA Forest Service Steve Maurer – New Jersey Forest Fire Service Mark Crow – Florida Division of Forestry Mark Zavala – USDA Forest Service Kate Dargan – California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection John Craney – California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection Dan McKenzie – USDA Forest Service Dale Dague – USDA Forest Service (Chairperson) ii
Water Handling Equipment Guide Fifth Edition Introduction Through a survey of Federal and State wildland fire fighting agencies, a need was expressed to identify government owned and operated interagency water handling equipment and to disseminate this information to field users. The pictures, performance, and equipment descriptions found within this Guide represent the various types of pumps, equipment, and other components found in the fire community and offered by manufacturers. It is not meant to indicate sponsorship or validation of any particular manufacturer or product. The primary objective of the Guide is to provide field users in wildland firefighting agencies with a basic information document on water handling equipment. Within the wildland fire community, every imaginable type of water handling equipment is in use. This Guide does not contain all water handling equipment in use, but does contain equipment components that are (1) commercially available or economically reproducible, (2) interagency in scope or application, and (3) currently in use. To qualify for being reproducible, there normally has to be the availability of specifications and drawings that have been tested. The information contained in this latest edition has been completely updated to incorporate recently developed concepts in wildland fire organization, changes in equipment, and deletion of no longer used or available items. Appendixes have been expanded to provide a ready source of technical data and conversion factors required by the practitioner. Agency-developed systems or components portrayed, but not available from a vendor or manufacturer as a unit, are included to promote standardization among agencies, resulting in reduced equipment costs and increased efficiency and safety. Users are encouraged to submit new equipment ideas at any time. See appendix J for Mobile Equipment Input Data Sheet. Information submitted will be reviewed for inclusion in the next revision of the Guide. (See inside front cover for the address.) iii
