Res-Q-Jack Stops Tanker From Leaking Print E-mail
October 28th, 2006
Trout Creek & Walton Fire Department District, NY


It was a Mirabito fuel tanker that went into the woods & down a bank. Driver was pinned. Tanker had over 8000 gallons of #2 fuel, it lost over 1/2. They used the jack to secure the hatchcover so it did not leak anymore. The MVA was in Trout Creek FD's district with mutual aid fro Walton FD and some others. TCFD & WFD are both RQJ customers. There are more pictures that were taken, however the chief has not gotten them from the NYC DEP. The body of water in the background is one of their reservoirs.
