If your department responds in an area with storage facilities for grains or other flowing materials ask yourself these questions:
Are my members aware of the unique dangers that are associated with grain storage facilities?
Are my members trained to effect a grain entrapment rescue in compliance with NFPA and OSHA standards?
Rescue operations in a grain storage facility present a unique set of hazards that many Fire Departments are not trained or equipped to handle. They require specialized training and equipment in the following areas:
- Confined space entry
- High angle rescue
- Rope rescue
- Use of ResQue tubes
- Knowledge of the hazards of flowing grains
- Knowledge of grain bin construction
Does my department have the equipment necessary to perform a rescue in the event of a grain entrapment?
Is your department prepared to respond?
