SOG #211 - Refilling Tankers

GENERAL

When it becomes necessary to refill Tankers as a result of a fire or other incident, the nearest most reliable source of water is to be used.  DO NOT DRIVE OR HAUL WATER FROM LONG DISTANCES.  This reduces our efficiency and capability of quickly containing the situation.

Use hydrants in the Commercial District only if they are the reliable source of water.

Westlake has a dry hydrant located on Smith Road in the area of the boat ramp.

Clean Harbors (formally Safety Klean) 6125 N. Pecatonica Road has hydrants for refilling tankers.

Seward Screw Products 16377 3rd St. (east of this address)

Communications from the Tankers going to the fill site and when returning to the fireground is not required nor desired.  This only ties up the radio channel and impedes fireground communications.  If Incident Command or the Water Officer needs to know your status, they will communicate directly with you, otherwise go fill and return as quickly as possible.
