Fire Attack Technical Panel Selected

February 27, 2015

We would like to thank the 300 firefighters that submitted an application to serve on the technical panel for the Study of the Impact of Fire Attack Utilizing Interior and Exterior Streams on Firefighter Safety and Occupant Survival. Everyone that applied was highly qualified and very passionate which made the selection process very difficult. Members were selected based on fire service experience, geography, department size, department type and experience with fire attack. The individuals on the list below were selected and will be notified with additional information next week. Additional input and guidance for this project will also be provided by the FSRI Advisory Board. Those that applied and were not selected are encouraged to provide input to those selected from their region and will be given priority to witness any testing that is opened to the fire service.
