A) The execution of a reverse stairway stretch must be approved by the Incident Commander and communicated to all units.

B) The engine officer will communicate with the Incident Commander and the ECC to identify the stairway to be used for the stretch.

C) On the ground, the ECC (assisted by additional engine companies) will begin stretching 2 ½” hose up the designated stairway. Members should ensure the male end of the hose is being stretched downwards towards the street.

D) Once the stretch is complete, the engine officer in command of the nozzle team must be notified. Only the officer in command of the nozzle team can call for the hoseline to be charged.

Question 22

16) Proper corrective action for a “short stretch” is indicated in each choice below except? (Eng Ch 10 4.3.7-4.3.10)

A) If conditions prevent the new length from being added to the front of the stretch, it should be added as close to the front of the stretch as possible

C) Members are reminded that only a maximum of six lengths of 1 ¾” hose may be stretched. If an additional length is required in this instance, an increaser and 2 ½” hose shall be connected to the front of the line.

Question 23

17) Additional problems faced by engine company members at structural fires can be found below. Which choice contains incorrect information?
(Eng Ch 10 4.4.4, 4.5.2 - 4.5.4)

A) In the case of a hose strap failure, the problem can be solved through a coordinated effort of members lifting the hose back to the fire area and properly securing it with another hose strap.

B) A common obstruction causing blocked access to a fire area can be the door to the fire area itself. If the door opens inward into the fire area, it can often block access for the hoseline when the door is chocked in the open position

C) To resolve the problem of a door blocking access to the fire area, the engine needs to advance a sufficient amount of the charged lead length into the apartment and stage it in an area opposite the door. Once in position, the door needs to be closed (at least partially) to allow the engine to advance the hoseline and access the fire.

D) In the case of a more significant obstruction that cannot be removed and hoseline access will be impossible or severely delayed, the engine officer must notify the IC and consideration should be given to finding alternative access with a 2nd hoseline. The 1st hoseline should be withdrawn outside of the building while the 2nd hoseline positions at an alternative point.

Answer 23

Answer: D*

Question 24

2) There are many types of decontamination. Which type below is incorrectly described? (ERP HM 4.3.9 B, C, D)

C) The only way to conduct Gross Decontamination is through the use of handlines, fixed site emergency showers or the Mass Decontamination procedure. Dry Decontamination is considered a Technical Decontamination procedure.

D) Technical Decontamination is a more thorough decontamination process and follows Gross Decontamination. It may involve the use of special solutions or equipment and is conducted to prevent secondary contamination by people or equipment leaving the incident scene.
