DESCRIPTIVE ANNOTATION: FIRELINE - Trench Rescue
Louisville, KY. A year ago the Jefferson County (KY) Trench Rescue Team
responding to a similar incident dug by the same contractor! A sheer
collapse buried a worker nearly completely. The first-in unit used air
bags to generate some space around the patient. An air injection device
was used to loosen soil and a DPW vacuum truck was brought in to suck up
dirt as it was removed. Normal shoring material panels couldn't be used
in this incident so 2 x 12s with spreaders were employed. A good
incident involving improvising of strategy. Moore's Landing Apartment
Fire Carney's Point, NJ - Firefighters had responded to this apartment
complex a number of times before so they knew what to expect -
especially because of a common attic. The first-arriving units began to
create fire breaks. Because of the fire load and amount of fire, a
second alarm was called early which included a tanker task force. This
complex has aluminum wiring and was the cause of the fire in the attic.
Departments should be aware and keep an eye on structures in their
jurisdiction which may not be in compliance of current building codes.
HANDS-ON: U.S. Fire Administration Grant Program - The Emergency
Services Education and Consulting Group, a division of VFIS insurance in
York, PA, presents information about the 2002 Fire Act Grant Awards and
new changes affecting grant submissions for 2002 - submissions which are
due by March 31st. Grant requests may be made in the areas of fire
operations, fire prevention, EMS, and vehicle acquisition. The big news
is that grand funding has been quadrupled this year - in excess of $300
million. The other main change is that grants are being accepted over
the Internet and, in fact, these submissions will be given priority over
written submissions. ESECG can assist departments in preparing grants
for submission. Tool Talk - The City of Portland (OR) Fire Bureau
provides another training segment on tool basics. This month we present
a detailed description and usage guidelines for chainsaws and "the
Irons": the ax and the halligan tool. A hard-core, fact-based refresher
on important firefighting tools. FIRE MEDICS: 9/11 Truck-Ambulance Crash
- On September 11, 2001, the New Jersey State Police called up the
Gloucester County EMS Task Force from southern New Jersey for possible
deployment at Ground Zero in New York City. On the way to New York, one
of the ambulances collided with a large truck. An involved extrication
ensued. One obstacle was the overloaded rescue truck that had been
heading for New York but then was pressed into service at this incident.
This segment covers the crash and extrication and the task force
mobilization. EVOLUTIONS 2000: Kramer vs. Kramer - EMS vs. Fire
Suppression: Working Fire and Professor/Chief Bill Kramer present out
Continuing Education segment that's worth one credit from the University
of Cincinnati. Recognizing that the fire service is changing, various
components have taken on greater or lesser importance. Which is now more
important: EMS or fire suppression?

DESCRIPTIVE ANNOTATION: FIRELINE - Residence Fire - San Francisco, CA.
A second alarm was dispatched almost immediately as firefighters arrived
at this residence in the Richmond district of San Francisco. Roofers,
working with a membrane which has to be heated prior to being affixed to
the roof, started a fire in the attic. Homes in this district are so
close together that their roofs touch, allowing the fire to travel
through the attic to the home next door. A second truck crew also worked
inside the exposure home. Otherwise, the dormers and roof on the main
home were vented as firefighters searched for remains of fire. Featured
in this incident are the salvage efforts of the S.F.F.D. which makes a
conscious effort to protect homeowners possessions from fire and water
damage. Ammonia Tanker Leak - Houston, TX. A motorist alerted
authorities to this ammonia tanker that was leaking product through its
safety relief valve. An interior tanker baffle had broken loose and
struck the valve control mechanism, allowing the product escape. The
Houston Haz-Mat Response Team describes its response and reviews
strategies for handling such a situation. Excellent training information
value! HANDS ON: Vehicle Extrication Techniques - Part II. Hands-On
features the second in a series of vehicle extrication scenarios using
the High-Lift jack produced by Jacksonville, (FL) Fire Rescue. This
month, we present a method for lifting the steering wheel to release a

Fire continues with training aimed at the company officer / incident
commander at the management level with the second of a multi-part series
called Waterloo 2000, presented by Chief John Kriska of the Rock Hill
(MO) Fire Department. This month, the Chief talks about the importance
of ventilation and pre-incident planning. FIRE MEDICS: Violent Patient
Management. This month features the first in a multi-part series on how
to handle and control patients who are uncooperative or downright
combative. Hundreds of EMS personnel are injured each year in
confrontations with these kinds of patients. Instructors Thomas Venegoni
and Mike McClanahan from Professional Safety Consultants present their
program designed for the paramedic and EMT. This month we begin in the
classroom and then present hands-on techniques. EVOLUTIONS 2000- Kramer
vs. Kramer: Flammability / Hazard Notification Working Fire and
Professor / Chief Bill Kramer present out Continuing Education segment
that's worth one credit from the University of Cincinnati. Looking at
this month's San Francisco Fire and our Waterloo 2000 Hands-On segment,
Bill debates whether or not local departments should be alerted in
advance when contractors are using flammable or dangerous procedures in
their jurisdictions.
WORKING FIRE MAY 2002 VOL 02 #5
OCFSL
(V-652)- 106:76 Minutes.
DESCRIPTIVE ANNOTATION: FIRELINE: Car-Truck Crash -
Newark, DE - Responders found what appeared to be a near-head-on
collision with a pickup truck positioned on top of a car: one driver
was found dead; the other driver was pinned in her vehicle under the
truck. As EMS attempted to evaluate her, rescuers stabilized the truck
on top of the car by chaining it to a command vehicle making the scene
more secure. Her legs were pinned by the dash; ultimately, she became
paralyzed from the waist down. The dash was finally lifted enough to
extricate the woman. Car Wash Entrapment - Mt Ephraim, NJ - A car wash
attendant's foot slipped into the pulley track and he was unable to
remove it. Mt. Ephraim responders fully sized-up the apparatus and the
patient's condition before deciding on a course of action. Disassembly
was not possible so Saws-Alls were used to cut some of the metal
apparatus. It was then decided to bring in an exothermic "Slice Pack"
torch which the department had but hadn't yet put in service. To avoid
heat transfer to the man's foot, a hose line kept water on the foot
(such a torch can cut under water if necessary). For training on using
an exothermic torch, see Working Fire Volume 00-05 (May 2000).
HANDS-ON: Cold Water Rescue, Part I - As the recreational season
approaches, Working Fire presents the first of a two-part series on cold
water rescue with the Washington Township (NJ) Fire Department; many of
the techniques can be applied in ice rescues as well. In this segment we
review the necessary equipment and how to use it, scene management, and
contact with the rescue patient. Next month we feature a surprise
nighttime water rescue scenario. Tic Tracer Demonstration - Always on
the lookout for equipment that can help firefighters and responders do
their work more safely and efficiently, Working Fire features a training
piece produced by Jacksonville (FL) Fire-Rescue. It's a device called
the Tic Tracer which will identify whether or not exterior power lines
are "live" or not. This would be extremely useful in the event of a
natural disaster or an incident involving downed power lines. Additional
information is also included regarding the relative safety of different
styles of pike poles and their suitability to be used with live power
lines - important information for your department! FIRE MEDICS: Asthma
Education ,Part II - Following up on out introductory segment last month
covering basic information about asthma and its treatment, this month an
asthma specialist covers disease modalities and specific treatments that
EMS can use in the field. Be sure to not the EMS section later in these
Training Materials covering the various generic and brand-name
medications that are available for asthma treatment. EVOLUTIONS 2000:

1 Hours 44 Minutes. DESCRIPTIVE ANNOTATION: FIRELINE
- RESCUE CASE STUDIES: Working Fire continues its Case Study approach,
this month studying vehicle extrication. We have selected some unique
extrication, many of which also demonstrate the importance of concurrent
EMS response, an element to be factored into every extrication
response. Case Study #1: Head-On Vehicle Crash - Bartlett, TN: A
vehicle which ran a stop sign forced a sports utility vehicle filled
with teenagers out of its lane and into an oncoming vehicle. One of the
teenagers was propelled from the back seat through the windshield to
land on the hood of the vehicle. (The teenager in the front passenger
seat was saving by being forced to the floor by the ejecting teenager.)
Only one of the teens was restrained in the vehicle and there were no
air bags. The teenager driver eventually died from compression injuries.
Extrication and EMS on-scene are featured. Case Study #2: Car/Guy Wire
Rescue - Deptford, NJ: A suspected drunken motorist miscalculated a
turn and drove his car off the road and up a utility pole guy wire where
it hung suspended in a nearly vertical position. Rescuers fashioned a
sling using cables and an aerial ladder apparatus to stabilize the car
from above and used chocks and cribbing underneath. Using a flat-bed
wrecker truck, rescuers were then able to remove the driver. EMS had
worked with the motorist throughout and C-Spined him in the vehicle
before removal. Case Study #3: Garbage Truck Highway Crash - San
Mateo, CA: A garbage truck came up upon a stalled line of traffic and
couldn't stop. It struck three vehicles at the rear of the line and then
went off the highway and struck a tree. Extricators had to work over the
engine and through the windshield to effect the rescue. This incident
centered around an extensive extrication effort coupled with a
simultaneous EMS response. The driver's leg was pinned and had an open
fracture of an arm. The arm was attended to while rams and spreaders
were used to release the leg. Case Study #4: Mustang/Bridge Rescue -
Spring, TX: This bridge has been the site of numerous similar
accidents. A Mustang ended up with a bridge pier penetrating its driver
compartment, pinning the driver in his seat, as the car hung off the
overpass. EMS arrived first, setting up a medical command and performing
an initial patient assessment. The vehicle was stabilized using a
wrecker; extrication and medical treatment were begun simultaneously.
The department has developed contingency plans for incidents on this
bridge. Applying training to different and unusual situations was the
key to handling this incident. Case Study #5: Interstate Emergency
Vehicle Accidents - Nashville, TN: While returning from a call, a
Nashville Fire Department unit stopped along Interstate 440 to check on
a minor traffic accident. While slowing down, the unit was struck from
behind by a small compact car with three occupants. The compact was then
rear-ended by a truck with a small trailer. The three car occupants were
severely injured; the fire fighters involved were only shaken up. While
this was unfolding, another Nashville rescue vehicle on the opposite
side of the Interstate was pulling off the highway to assist when it too
was struck by a civilian car. Case Study #6: Accidental Air Bag
Deployment - Dayton, OH: This segment is important for any crew that is
involved with any aspect of vehicle extrication. Dayton, OH firefighters
were working on vehicle extrication when one firefighter inadvertently
activated the air bag. The thrust of the bag's deployment ejected the
firefighter from the car, causing injuries to his neck and back. This
segment shows the actual deployment of the bag and touches on the
controversy surrounding air bag safety.

the MAST device. The MAST is a lifting-rated harness that can be put on
a downed firefighter or civilian in approximately 15 - 20 seconds;
Sub-Level Rescues Handcuff Knots/Hoseline - This is a series of
techniques for lifting a firefighter who has fallen through a floor to
the level beneath. These include variations using the handcuff know for
both conscious and unconscious victims, with and without air pack
change-out, and a technique using a charged hoseline. Denver Drill - In
Denver, Colorado in 1992, an unusual scenario occurred where a
firefighter went down just inside a window in a commercial
establishment. Firefighters developed the Denver technique performed by
two firefighters on the inside. This technique is demonstrated along
with the Columbus variation and a third option with two variations which
can be performed by a single firefighter, providing the downed victim is
not too large

LINE - RESCUE CASE STUDIES.
Case Study #1:
High-Angle Water Tower Rescue - Beaumont, Texas: A maintenance worker
fell while working inside a large water tower. Rescuers with high-angle
experience were brought in along with EMS personnel who also made the
climb to the top to assess the victim's injuries. Access in and out of
the tower was through a hatch that was too small for a stokes basket so
the victim was removed through the opening on a backboard and then
transferred to the stokes. Anchor points were rigged from the top of the
tower to a heavy piece of machinery at the bottom. Extreme heat
conditions demanded a thorough rehab operation.
Case Study #2: Riverside Trench
Rescue - Mira Linda, CA: Soft ground gave way, spilling a construction
worker into a ten-foot trench. A joint response by the Riverside County
and Ontario (CA) Fire Departments involved participation by members of
Ontario's heavy rescue team. Issues in the rescue include safety to the
rescuers, victim, and onlookers; strategy for removing the victim; and
dealing with the victim's state of mind. Case Study #3: Auger Rescue -
Jacksonville, FL: Jacksonville, firefighters arrived to find a worker's
legs trapped in a cement auger. In a two hours rescue effort,
firefighters, paramedics, and welders worked to free the victim the
victim. They used torches to cut bolts and plates to remove the auger.
But, the heat from the welds was burning the victim so they brought in a
booster line to cool him. Remarkably, he suffered no major nerve, tendon
or blood vessel damage and is expected to make a full recovery.
Case Study #4: Aerial Collapse
- Kansas City, MO: Responding to a routine apartment building fire,
firefighters had attempted an interior attack but decided to go
defensive. They set up two aerial apparatus and began a master stream
application. But, the 100 ft. Seagrave lightweight aerial was not
designed to be fully extended fully at the angle that it was and,
firefighters had not been trained on this reserve piece of apparatus.
The aerial failed completely with Firefighter Mark Ashley strapped in.
The ladder landed on the roof's edge leaving Ashley stranded in heavy
heat and smoke. Firefighters taking a break grabbed a 35 ft. ground
ladder and came to Ashley's rescue. Major issues covered in this segment
include the use of personal protective gear, not getting complacent, and
getting appropriate training, even on reserve apparatus.
Case Study #5: Swift-water Rescue - Golden, CO: With spring
rains and melting snowcaps, the weekend warriors have taken to the
rivers in Colorado. While on a training evolution, water rescue team
members were called to effect the rescue of two victims whose raft had
punctured in the raging Clear Creek. Communications, safety, and basic
rescue techniques are shown in this segment. Case Study #6: Ultralight
Plane Crash - Pittsfield, MA: On Father's Day, a 77 year-old pilot was
attempting to land his homemade ultralight plane. He came up short on
the runway and landed 60 feet in the air among pine trees. Firefighters
faced access problems getting into the woods and up to him. He was alert
and conscious. But, as the technical rescue team found anchor points and
began climbing to get to him, he took a turn for the worse. The victim
was suffering from crush syndrome and there was little, if anything,
responders could do for him. The man died while still in the plane. This
segment chronicles the two-hour rescue effort and follows up with a
discussion about crush syndrome and the proper field treatment for EMTs
and paramedics

DESCRIPTIVE ANNOTATION: FIRE SUPPRESSION CASE STUDIES:
commercial/Industrial Fires - Working Fire continues its study of the
basics of fire suppression using the Case Study method. This month we
focus on commercial/industrial fires. These hold great challenges for
both fire ground commanders and firefighters as they have the potential
to contain many factors which may not be present at a typical
residential fire: mutual aid, communications, hazardous materials etc.
This month, we reexamine some of the most instructive - and tragic -
commercial/industrial fires from the Working Fire archives as we go back
to the basics with a retrospective analysis. Case Study #1:
International Harvester Complex Fire: Canton, IL - Seventeen buildings
of the largest industrial complex in the area caught on fire. As the
fire spread rapidly, it became clear that the strategy was "surround and
drown" with extensive mutual aid assistance. In all, 24 departments and
14 agencies participated. Complicating the incident was the fact that
Canton's hydrants did not support national threads used by surrounding
departments. Tanker shuttling was set up which worked successfully. In
addition, being able to use only one radio frequency was also a burden
on communications. Case Study #2: Farmers Market Tire Fire:
Jacksonville, FL - Firefighters tried an initial interior fire attack
but the fire's rapid advance thwarted that effort. Responders fell back
and went defensive with aerials, deck guns, and monitors. Exposure
protection was successful as other adjacent buildings were spared. For a
time, buildings on fire were electrified by fallen power lines and some
firefighters received shocks. Long hose lays also were faced with low
water pressure; relay pumping at the hydrants were necessary as well as
the water company raising water pressure. Case Study #3:
Petroleum Tank Fire: Devers, TX - A maintenance crew preparing to
service a crude oil pipeline was injecting nitrogen into a C4-grade
light crude oil line to purge it when an apparent loose seal allowed the
environment to become flammable. When one of the workers started his
pickup truck, the area exploded and a flash-fire occurred, severely
burning one of the workers, neither of whom wore protective clothing or
were using a vapor monitor. Pipeline valve components were consumed,
making complete shut-off of the pipelines impossible. As firefighters
attempted to fill pipeline "frac tanks" with foam, a secondary
flash-fire occurred, catching the local environment (grass and woods) on
fire and igniting a secondary isobutane line that had been cooling via a
stationary monitor. After the remaining petroleum product has been
exhausted from the lines, responders made a second successful assault
the following day using foam and dry chemical in combination. Case
Study #4: Auto Parts Store Fire: Tomball, TX - The structure was
nearly three-quarters involved when responders arrived. An initial
aggressive fire attack nearly got ahead of the blaze but the danger of a
roof collapse and exploding containers forced firefighters to withdraw.
A defensive strategy was adopted with the help of mutual aid. Hazardous
materials were an issue but the environment authorities suggested that
the building be allowed to burn rather than incur additional
contaminated runoff. The strategy switched to containment. Case
Study #5: Fatal Chemical Plant Explosion: West Helena, AR - When
the West Helena (AR) fire department tool the call from the BPS chemical
packaging plant, management said they had a smoldering bag of product.
Normal S.O.P. called for a full response, but Chief Pat Sensat held
firefighters back in favored of further investigation. As firefighters
approached the front door, the plant exploded, killing three of the
responders. This segment suggests additional precautions to be taken and
covers the aftermath of the explosion.

56:73 Minutes. DESCRIPTIVE ANNOTATION:
FIRELINE - Home Chef Store Fire, Palo Alto, CA - Firefighters responded
to a night fire at a retail store in downtown Palo Alto. An interior
team in fast-attack mode encountered dense smoke as they tried to enter.
Temperatures were high and zero visibility prevented crews from reaching
the seat of the fire. Crews were also hampered by the store's
merchandise encountered in the smoke. The engineer reduced hose pressure
to make maneuvering the hose easier, until water was needed. Responders
finally backed out and the strategy went defensive in a
surround-and-drown scenario. I-495 tractor-trailer crash, Claymont, DE
- During a driving rainstorm a tractor-trailer carrying plants and
shrubs ran off an interstate and crashed into a switching station of an
electrified railroad adjacent to the highway. The driver was trapped by
the dash but rescuers had to wait for an hour until assured that all
power to the catenary wires was shut off. Complicating the rescue was
the trailer which was leaning to one side and slowly sinking in soft
ground. Air bags and shoring eventually stabilized the vehicle as
extrication crews worked on both sides of the cab to free the driver.
The Incident Commander recounts the rescue team's thinking and solutions
to problems encountered. HANDS-ON: School Bus Extrication - Expanded
Training - Jacksonville, Florida Fire-Rescue conducted an extensive
training session on school bus entry and extrication techniques. These
techniques can be used on any large conveyance that transports
passengers: school busses, commuter or tour buses, light rail cars, or
other similar vehicles. These techniques include coverage of structural
features, window enlargements, and door, windshield, and roof removals.
FIRE MEDICS: Tour Bus/Tractor-Trailer Crash - Following up on our
extended Hands-On segment on school bus extrication, Fire Medics covers
a tractor-trailer that had rammed a tour bus carrying senior citizens.
Sectors were set up to cover a diesel fuel spill and the medical
response. Approximately 12 patients were finally transported with a
larger number of walking wounded who were assessed. An advance hospital
census was taken for determining distribution of patients to be
transported. Coordination of transporting patients between states and
the handling of the walking wounded were also issues. EVOLUTIONS 2000:
KRAMER VS. KRAMER -Dedicated vs. General Rescue Training - Working fire
and Professor/Chief Bill Kramer present our Continuing Education segment
that's worth one credit from the University of Cincinnati. This month,
Bill tackles and oft-debated issue: the role of women in the fire
service and is firefighting primarily physical or mental?
AMERICAN HEAT APRIL 2003
OCFSL
(V-713)
DESCRIPTIVE ANNOTATION:
SYNOPSIS: In this episode of American Heat, we discuss the dangers of
combating fires at marinas or boat yards. These incidents can be very
dangerous to firefighters. Firefighters should understand the dangers
involved and develop strategy and tactics that will minimize the
hazards. Not all fire departments are situated on the water or have a
coastline, but many departments have water recreation areas nearby. If
there is water, then there is pleasure craft as well. These boats need
to be sold, stored and maintained. These types of occupancies can lead
to high property losses due to the cost of each boat and the number of
boats that my be damaged. OBJECTIVES- Upon completion of the lesson,
the firefighter shall: Describe boating statistics; List and describe
different NFPA standards that address marina fire protection; Describe
marina characteristics; Describe different marina hazards.; Describe
different types of watercraft; Describe tactics that can be used at
marina fires; Describe fire prevention practices at marinas. Back to
Basics: Dover vs. Dover, Part 2. SYNOPSIS: This lesson is a
continuation of the Back to Basics: Dover vs. Dover, Part 1. The
philosophy of this educational methodology is to "test" firefighter
abilities in a fun and enjoyable environment. This lesson will check
firefighters' abilities and knowledge in hose, SCBA donning, changing a
SCBA cylinder, and a variety of tasks in a firefighting obstacle course.
Instructors should use this lesson as a review of basic firefighting
skills. OBJECTIVE: Given a task that may need to be completed on the
fireground, the firefighter (individually or as a member of a company)
will demonstrate the correct completion of the task according to the
Essentials of Firefighting 4th edition.
