Richmond, RI - Members of the Richmond–Carolina Fire District conducted a hands-on training session focused on flowing water operations. Crews deployed multiple handlines and practiced a variety of attack techniques, emphasizing control, coordination, and effective nozzle operation.
Drivers and engineers simultaneously trained on pump operations, managing pressures across multiple hose diameters and conducting relay pumping evolutions. The session reinforced teamwork, operational efficiency, and the skills necessary to deliver a reliable water supply during emergency incidents.
