    Nick,

    Need some mutual aid on CAFS. Do you guys have a minimum CAFS flow for hand lines? We did some tests today and could not meet our minimum flow (150 GPM) with a "wet" CAFS line that the crews were comfortable with. We did get a good stream and manageable line at 130 GPM. This is probably adequate under most conditions, but the confined, pre-flashover fire might be another story.

    I know you guys have done a lot of work on this so I'm wondering if you ever wrote it down in policy form?

    Any help is appreciated!
