CMF contacted me about the squad transmission leak this morning. The DOT for the unit dies on 3/1 so as the leak is not significant they have asked that we continue to monitor closely and it will wait for DOT/PM which they are working to move up slightly as well since there are not currently any reserves available. I have asked for them to provide a hard date update since there are on-going driver training initiatives. I will pass the date update along when I have it.

Watch Desk Area



PROJECT UPDATE:  In October we launched an effort to enhance the appearance of the watch desk.  A-Shift Personnel and BVFD Clean-up Day Personnel made a huge start.  Our thanks to FF Fields for taking the lead on that day, and everyone who worked so hard to truly upgrade the appearance.

Today, we moved a temporary work surface into place, to the right of the watch desk.  The electrical box blocks it from sliding back entirely, but it is only a temporary solution.

FF DeVries spoke with me today about working on new options which we are eager to pursue in concert with A-Shift or other FS15 personnel.  We hope to have various options/costs by the February Board Meeting.
