Today, NBVFD hosted the Maryland Water Supply Committee’s annual water supply drill. Departments were from all over the state including Anne Arundel County, Calvert County, Talbot County, and Baltimore County.

The evolution included 6 Engines, 5 Tankers, 1 Tower, and 1 Fire Boat. Units were able to maintain a 600GPM fire ground flow rate for an extended period of time. We were very proud to of hosted this annual water supply drill and were able to have a meal together afterwards while discussing some key points from the evolution.

Training never stops here at the “Beach House”. Having over half of our first due response area non-hydranted, rural water supply operations are an important skill.
