Lake Country (CA) Fire Department Adds Fire Apparatus to Fleet

The Lake Country Fire Department has received a new tactical tender truck to its fleet, reports Vernon Morning Star.

The new tender apparatus carries 2,000 imperial gallons of water. The tanker is able to fill port-a-tanks in areas lacking water supply with two portable pumps to draft out of a static water source if the truck cannot get close.

Fire Chief Steve Windsor said the truck can pump 840 gallons per minute and has a remote control monitor so it can pump and roll – operated by the officer in the cab.

The truck is fully stocked with fire hose, appliances, chain saws, and even an electric cooler to keep drinking water cold. The truck has enough room for storage of gear and tents for when the truck is deployed to assist on wildfires in other areas of need.
