Tanker 10 Part of Tanker Task Force for Bedford Mansion Fire
By CFD News Team
December 15, 2021
At about 12:30 AM on Wednesday, December 15th, our Tanker 10 was requested to relocate to the Bedford Hills FD as multiple departments were operating at a large structure fire in the Bedford Fire District. While making the move to "The Hills," the dispatchers at 60 Control alerted T10 to go to the scene as part of a Tanker Task Force that consisted of over a dozen Tankers from northern Westchester County.
Upon arrival, T10 was part of a shuttle operation delivering water from one of three fill sites to the scene. Members of the CFD operated on scene assisting with extinguishing and overhauling at the devastating fire. After about 4 hours, Croton Fire units returned to Croton.
An estimated 100,000 plus gallons of water was delivered to the scene to aid in the extinguishment of this blaze.
