OTHER INFORMATION
|
This truck was the result of 15 years of effort to replace a 1972 Dodge
Oil Tanker that was the front line tanker for GVFD. Granville is a rural
community with no public water supply. Therefore, all firefighting efforts
are dependent on water shuttled by tankers. This truck has been a
tremendous asset in improving department efficiency and safety.
