Tanker 4 |
|
|
|
The department has purchased a new Hale portable pump for Tanker 4, and now has it install along with a new dump tank. Also we have installed a ladder rank so we can carry a 12' extension ladder on the tanker. This will be the first time in the history of this truck that it has a pump on it. |
