Incorrect assumption

The IMT Planning Vehicle has been relocated to Fort Totten.

The Mobile Operations Center is a smaller version of the Mobile Command Units, is housed at the Brooklyn Borough Command (E-207/L-110), and is used for planning, communications, as a command post, or for community events. It is staffed by the Borough Command personnel when activated.

Mobile Command Center locations: MCC-1 at E-233; MCC-2 at E-93. One MCC is normally dispatched only on 10-60 Code 1 signals and is otherwise "special called." MCC-1 covers Bkn, Qns, and SI; MCC-2 is assigned for Man and Bnx.

Yes, but...... It was conceived and designed by Hazmat Operations and purchased as a high-volume "Industrial Pumper," and in spite of the "Super Pumper" name later added, is in service as planned -- as a high-volume foam unit with good access to large-scale petroleum tank locations.

Incorrect - only one engine above the All Hands;. Everything else requires a 2-2.

The revised 10-75 signal will get 5 & 3 plus the FAST truck. The Incident Commander will be able to get 1 extra engine (and nothing else) before striking the 2nd alarm if the incident is “Doubtful Will Hold.”

The FDNY 7-5 "All Hands" response is to be upgraded in the near future by adding one engine and one ladder to the current assignment. The total 7-5 response will be 5 engines, 3 ladders + the FAST ladder, two BC, DC, Rescue, Squad, and RAC.
