When there are no hydrants nearby, how do we get water to the fire? Tanker (or water shuttle) operations are a vital part of our response strategy in rural areas, where water access can be limited or nonexistent. This training scenario shows our crews running a full water shuttle drill — from setup to execution — while Battalion Chief Drew explains why this training is so important for our department and the community we serve. 👨‍🚒 Real training. 🚒 Real teamwork. 💧 Real solutions when every

Using the alternative water source as a supplement to the tanker shuttle. This creek was only about 4” deep but was able to provide 500 gpm constantly. Our tanker shuttle was a 4 mile round trip to Astral to get water. It was easier to pump two trucks on this creek for a while than it was to have them shuttle water. Once we moved to less water usage both Firovac trucks were used to supply the fire after all other tankers were released from the scene. | Lynn, Indiana Fire Department

Much of our fire district covers rural areas where hydrants are not readily available. As part of the NAFA 16 Post Academy, our new firefighters got hands-on experience with tender operations, learning how to shuttle and supply water efficiently to fire scenes in non-hydranted areas. These skills are vital to ensuring we can protect every corner of our district, no matter how rural. #BrightonFireRescue | Brighton Fire Rescue

03/08/21- Tonights bi-monthly drill focused on tanker shuttles and drafting. This type of water supply operation is not something we commonly use but it is a critical skill that we drill on to stay proficient. Twenty-one BFD firefighters were split into groups to rotate between tanker shuttles, pumping from a drop tank, and aerial ops. Thanks to BFD Photo Unit John Wilcher for his work capturing and producing this video. | Bedford Fire Department
