[QUOTE="oldslowandugly, post: 1051613, member: 659"] Here is an interesting video made by a firefighter about using saltwater on the wildfires. San Fransisco has a dual water system that dedicated one system just to fire hydrants. That way when structures burn down, and the domestic water free-flows, they still have good water pressure for fire hydrants. They learned this after the big earthquake when most damage was from fires. They use dedicated reservoirs to supply them. They even have fireboats that can pump salt water ashore to fight fires. Even here in Shitty City the fire department lobbied for, and got, sidewalk gas line shut-offs so when they arrive to a fire they can shut off the gas immediately. I think the LA area is in for some big changes and upgrading after this hell is over. [MEDIA=youtube]Y1N2BwcAT-s[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
