This is a group that is avaiable for Officers to gripe, fuss, and complain. Too often Officers have no place to take their frustrations to and just vent. There is no judgement passed here, only understanding and encouragement.

Hi Scott,

I'm new to this site, but I read your comments on the SOP's. Would you be willing to send any info you have to us? We are a small island in the Gulf Islands of British Columbia. We have a 1400 gal pumper truck, but we are just getting started. We are first response until the Forestry service shows up, if they do. Thanks in advance

Scott..

I want to thank you for the kind words in your invitation. I just try to share what I have learned over the past 45 years. Sometimes it is good and sometimes it is just experience. Take care and stay safe,

Scott,

The skill sheets are working out great. We have done some of them already. If you are willing to send out the new D.O. ones that would be great.

Stay Safe, Brother,

Joe

Hey Chief, welcome to the Kitchen. Post any recipes you might have.

On another note, your expertise would be welcome in any of our Hazmat forums.

Hey Scott, read your response to the SOP blog and was wondering if you could send me the info as well. My dept is under new leadership and in desperate need of SOP's, the new Chief is wanting to start the process and has asked me to help, now I am seeking the help of others. Will you be at FDIC? If so, we could meet there to talk more about this, if not, could you send info to indiana_firechick@yahoo.com or you can reach me by phone at 260-703-0021 Thanks!
