Roundtable Talk: Understanding the Risks – Big-Box Fires and Non-Fire Emergencies

In small towns, where land is less expensive and highway/interstate access is convenient, distribution centers, warehouses, and industrial spaces continue to absorb land. Volunteer fire departments in these small communities protect a large portion of the millions of square feet that will require intervention with limited fire resources. In order to respond efficiently and safely, it is important to prepare for the challenges ahead. While sprinklers contain the fire, firefighters still have search, rescue, extinguishment, salvage, and overhaul. Join the NVFC and a panel of experts for this Roundtable Talk to explore big-box fires and, among other topics, firefighter air. During a firefight, air management plays a critical role in the life and health of a firefighter. This webinar is sponsored by Firefighter Air Coalition. Register.
