    1/30/26 Staten Island 3rd Alarm Box 3275

    I see hydrants in front of active and retired member's houses not dug out by me on SI. If firefighters don’t dig them out, why would civilians? Nobody thinks there is going to be a fire on my street

    12/12/24 Staten Island 10-75 Box 720

    Water pressure on SI is good. There is still an issue with smaller mains in older neighborhoods. Plenty of 6" & 8" mains and they are also fed from only one direction. Inital water is not an issue, but when multiple lines operating, water can start becoming an issue.

    Still No Info on How FDNY will fight fires in Lithium Ion Battery Storage Sites if they occur

    Response guidelines have been in place for over 3 years. Sites have sprinklers and have remote monitoring. Response guidelines based on conditions. Response similar to the numerous Con Ed facilities located throughout NYC. Water usually not an issue in NYC

    Not taking Anything away from the members of the 43! The officers and firefighters take great pride in knowing those buildings and taking the time to let covering chiefs, abc’s and officers know how tough the buildings are. As a Chief that didn’t get a chance to get into all these buildings...

    I'm not sure who started it, but Glynn updated it. It's still in the rig. Nice security blanket for covering chiefs.
