The incident occurred on June 8, 1998, at one of the world’s largest grain elevator storage facilities in the United States in rural Sedgwick County, Kansas, near Wichita. The lecture and slide show is presented by Gary E. Curmode, fire chief, Sedgwick County Fire District No. 1. (2 hours, 50 minutes)Video II – Tactical Considerations at Grain Elevator Fires
Grain elevator employees and first responders need to do careful pre-planning that includes creation of standard operating procedures/guidelines and familiarization tours of the facility. When an emergency occurs, the incident commander and the grain elevator manager must make multiple decisions in a very short time. Every emergency is unique, and your response must be too. It is critical to understand what a plant manager, supervisor, or emergency responder should do in an emergency of any magnitude at a grain elevator or grain facility. This may be a fire or an explosion. This training video shows tactical considerations and guidelines for these specific situations. The decision-making is yours alone.
