Reference no: EM133290327

Question: Water shuttle operations and relay pump operations each play an important role in many fire departments due to lack of municipal water sources or longer distances to a municipal water source.

Consider the following two scenarios:

a water shuttle operation to a hydrant that is 3,000 feet away from an incident using 3 tanker/tenders to maintain water supply, and

a relay pump operation to a hydrant that is 3,000 feet away from an incident using 3 additional engines to maintain a water supply.

Which of the two scenarios would you prefer to implement as an incident commander? Why? Make sure to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of your choice compared to the alternative option.
