Scope. In a cooperative effort between the City of Goldsboro Fire Department and Seymour Johnson Fire Emergency Services, this Standard Operating Guide (SOG) shall serve as a Best Management Practice (BMP). It is required by the State of North Carolina Division of Water Quality as a condition of the City of Goldsboro's Reclaimed Water Permit. 1.2, Purpose. In an effort to conserve limited quantities of drinking water, and to be better stewards of the community in which we live and operate; all structural and airfield firefighting vehicles will be filled and routinely re -serviced with non -potable water. 1.3. Application. This indefinite process will in no way impinge on the mission of Seymour Johnson Air Force Base (SJAFB), or on the ability of the Fire Emergency Service (FES) to meet the needs of the community.

Shall. Indicates a mandatory requirement. 3.2,6. Should. Indicates a recommendation or that which is advised but not required. 3.2.7. Training Center Burn Building. A structure specifically designed for conducting live fire training evolutions on a repetitive basis. Chapter 4 — Reclaimed Water Supply Logistics 4.1. Marking of firefighting vehicles. 4.1.1. All structural and airfield firefighting vehicles will be clearly marked with a label on the dash board conspicuously located so that the driver/operator will recognize that the vehicle is filled with "Non -Potable Water". 4.1.2. Each pump operator panel (inside and or outside the vehicle) will be marked with a label conspicuously located near the pump engagement device (switch, lever, etc), so that the pump operator understands the tank is filled with "Non - Potable Reuse Water". 4.1.3. As the vehicles are designed to be used by trained operators only, no warning signs are necessary for the public at large. 4.1.4. Signs will only be removed when the vehicles are adequately cleaned IAW standard set in "Tank Disinfection", 4.2, Obtaining Water, A Mobile Water Supply Apparatus (MWSA) will be utilized to obtain non -potable reuse water from the City of Goldsboro Reclaimed Water Facility (RWF) on Dixie Trail. (Attachment 1) 4.3. Crew. Two personnel shall be assigned to the MWSA when obtaining water from the RWF. This is necessary as the MWSA must be backed into the driveway of the RWF in order to fill with water. 4.4. Fill Hose. The only hose authorized to fill the MWSA with reclaimed water will be the 3" water supply hose at the RWF fill site. Water supply hoses on the MWSA will not be used to fill the vehicle with reclaimed water at anytime. 4.5. Drafting Tank. The SJAFB FES Flight has a 10,000 gallon underground fiberglass water storage/drafting tank used for fire vehicle testing and driver/operator training. This is commonly referred to as the "Drafting Tank". 4.5.1, The Drafting Tank will be filled with non -potable reuse water from the MWSA and will be kept as full . as practical to maintain a supply of water to top off SJAFB firefighting vehicles after routine operations checks and training. As the Drafting Tank runs low, it will be refilled by the MWSA shuttling water between the RWF and SJAFB. 4.5.2. The Drafting Tank will be clearly marked with signage indicating to the public at large that the tank is filled with "Non -Potable Reuse Water". Signs will only be removed when the Drafting Tank is adequately cleaned IAW standards set in "Tank Disinfection". Chapter 5 — Reclaimed Water Supply Usage 5.1. Routine Operations. 5.1.1. Every effort will be made to ensure that non -potable water is not allowed to enter into storm water drains that feed directly into the area water streams such as the Neuse River. Reclaimed water is allowed to enter into the sanitary sewer system. 5.1.2. Vehicle Operational Checks will be made onto natural cover areas such as grass or on the gravel surface of the FES Aircraft Live Fire Training Area. When non -live fire training is conducted, such as hose evolutions, turret and/or master stream operations, FES personnel will ensure that the water runs off into natural cover areas such as grass or on the gravel surface of the FES Aircraft Live Fire Training Area. 5.1.3. Both the Aircraft and the Structural Live Fire Training Areas (including the abandoned taxiway) drain into natural cover areas. As such, all firefighting training using reclaimed water in these areas is permitted. 5.2. Firefighting Operations, 5.3. No firefighting operation will be limited, curtailed, or restricted due to the presence of non -potable reuse water in firefighting vehicles. However, just as in any actual fire, the Senior Fire Officer should take note of water runoff into storm drains. 5.3.1. While a water run-off event may not be preventable, the City of Goldsboro Public Utilities Department should be advised of estimated quantities of non -potable reuse water that was allowed to run off into storm drains feeding into area water streams. Understandably, it is more likely that water from actual firefighting operations will run off into natural cover areas such as lawns and gardens, rather than into storm drains feeding area water streams. 5.3.2. When non -potable reuse water is contained in the tank of a firefighting vehicle, it is necessary to avoid any potential cross -connection between non -potable reuse water and potable water at a fire hydrant. To meet this objective, no valve to a fire hydrant will be turned on until the non -potable reuse water has been valved off or has been exhausted from the truck. Chapter 6 -- Tank Disinfection 6.1. In order to return to conditions for normal use with fresh water, all water tanks must be disinfected. This procedure is only necessary if all vehicles in the fleet are to be converted to use with fresh water. 6.2. Should such time occur that it is not in the best interest of the City of Goldsboro or the U.S. Air Force to continue to utilize reclaimed water for the purposes outlined here within, and/or as directed by the Fire Chief, all tanks will be disinfected lAW procedures established by the SJAFB Bioenvironmental Engineer, and/or the City of Goldsboro Department of Public Utilities. 6.3. When all water tanks have been disinfected, all "Non -Potable Reuse Water" labels, signs, and placards shall be removed and the FES will continue to use only fresh water. THOMAS E.
