Make your voice heard: Fire Engineering's July Roundtable

Middle

July Question: Much has been written about the toxins contained in smoke. We have been aware of the effects of carbon monoxide for a long time. Other chemicals such as hydrogen cyanide are being given more weight as contributing causes to firefighter deaths and injuries. Most departments have a mandatory mask policy that provides guidelines for wearing SCBA at fires. Does your department have a written policy on the use of SCBA at fires? Who is responsible for compliance?

Deadline for Responses: April 22, 2007.
