Water Shuttle Operations 101

When does a fire department need to establish a water shuttle operation?

• Needed Fire Flow (NFF) for a structure cannot be met by water carried on the first due apparatus (engines and water tanker/tenders)
• The fire incident is outside the hydrant coverage area or there is a need to supplement a weak or damaged hydrant system
• Fire pumper apparatus relay operation would not be feasible due to distance, time or resource limitations
