  1. Sedgwick County Fire Chief’s Association Regional Training Exercise-Viola, Ks. May 3rd, 2008 Rural Water Supply “Working Together” to maximize coordination between multi-agencies.

  2. Apparatus What’s available?

  3. Communication How effective are we?

  4. Equipment How adaptable?

  5. Familiar Do we know our own resources and capabilities?

  6. Familiar Do we know our mutual aid departments resources and capabilities?

  7. Locations & Distances Where is the nearest water supply and how long does it take to get there? Dry Hydrant (263rd & 103rd South) 1.65 miles  Garden Plain                         4.75 miles Conway Springs                     6.54 miles Clearwater                              9.14 miles Dry Hydrant at Lake Afton      10.09 miles  Station #35                             13.98 miles Goddard                                  16.64 miles Station #34                              16.72 miles Cheney                                    17.81 miles Station #17 20.73 miles Station #31                               21.99 miles

  8. Water Shuttle Operations Tender Cycle Time = 10 minutes the first mile + 2 minutes each additional mile (Calculated one way and not for a round trip) Example #1: Viola to Conway Springs: 6.5 miles travel distance (round up) 10 minutes the first mile + 12 minutes for six miles Tender Cycle Time = 22 minutes Example #2: Viola to Clearwater: 9.4 miles travel distance 10 minutes the first mile + 18 minutes for nine miles Tender Cycle Time = 28 minutes Example #3: Viola to 103rd S. & 263rd West: 2 miles travel distance 10 minutes the first mile + 2 minutes for the last mile Tender Cycle Time = 12 minutes

  9. Water Shuttle Operations Tenders Required = Tender Cycle Time X GPM Flow Tender Capacity Example #1: 28 minutes X 1000 GPM = 11.2 Tenders 2500 Gallons (Round Up) 28 minutes X 650 GPM = 7.2 Tenders 2500 Gallons Example #2: 22 minutes X 1000 GPM = 8.8 Tenders 2500 Gallons 22 minutes X 650 GPM = 5.7 Tenders 2500 Gallons Example #3: 12 minutes X 1000 GPM = 4.8 Tenders 2500 Gallons 12 minutes X 650 GPM = 3.1 Tenders 2500 Gallons (Consider one additional tender for safety margin!) = # of Tenders Required
