Question 35:
During company drill in Brooklyn, a newly trained ECC made the following comments. Which comment was incorrect?
A: Whenever a hose line is supplied with the booster tank, the ECC must communicate to the Engine Officer that they are on booster water. The Engine Officer should also be notified when the water level in the booster tank is half empty.
B: If the Fire Department Connection (FDC) is found to be inoperable, or if the position of the FDC in relation to the hydrant makes connection to the FDC impractical, the standpipe system can be supplied by way of the first-floor standpipe outlet instead.
C: At most operations in buildings with a standpipe that are of newer, modern construction, the ECC should generally supply the standpipe system with a pressure of 100 psi, plus an additional 5 psi per floor of elevation
