Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-001832
A designated location where firefighters can draw water from a static source, such as a pond, lake, or swimming pool, for fire suppression operations. This site typically includes a clear access point for fire apparatus and a stable area for setting up pumps and hoses.
