Title: Implementing Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting Training at Fresno Yosemite International Airport
Accession Number: 01686660
Record Type: Monograph
Record URL: Abstract: This issue examines how Fresno Yosemite International Airport officials used ACRP Report 103: A Guidebook for Integrating NIMS for Personnel and Resources at Airports. The report guided the creation of a training program for Fresno Fire Department firefighters contracted to serve at the on-airport aircraft rescue and firefighting (ARFF) station 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Airport officials used the report’s customizable, Excel-based matrix of suggested training for airport staff to identify specific gaps in training and new areas to address. The training program developed using the report helps the airport reinforce the differences between ARFF and traditional firefighting to municipal firefighters and provides fire department leadership and firefighters a better understanding of airport procedures in general.
