I have asked before and been told that the snorkel is at a station and is picked up and brought to the scene as needed. My next question is who operates it when it gets on the scene ? Are there multiple companies throughout the city who are qualified to operate it and when it arrives they are assigned to it? I think it is awesome the CFD still uses the snorkel like that and just curious about the ops. Thanks in advance
