This town of 70, 000 population has 83 firefighters, including 55 paid personnel and 28 unpaid volunteers. The fleet includes 4X4 brush pumpers to address vegetation fires in the outskirts, as well as this high capacity tanker. In addition to often being deployed to supply the brush trucks, it is used in several areas of the town which have limited capacity hydrants to support the structural appliances. I understand it has around 13,000 litres on board.
