After just having a meeting with our safety officer and chiefs, it was decided that MASKS and REGULATORS will not be provided at the conference due to two issues:
1) Extreme Rate of transmission for sickness/covid due to sharing masks and regulators
2) Fit Testing was not completed on these masks and presents a massive liability in case of injury per NFPA and OSHA.
Sorry for the inconvenience. IF YOUR DEPARTMENT USES MSA'S, PLEASE BRING PACKS AS WELL, OUR AIR TRAILERS HAVE ADAPTERS TO FILL MSA BOTTLES.
We will have SCBA packs for SCOTTS on hand for everyone to use, but cannot provide masks and regulators.
If your department still will not let you bring your masks and regulators then you have until Feb 10th to get a full refund from Firenuggets or you can switch classes to a class that does not require a mask (Elkhart, Ladders).
For a refund contact Jeff Bryant at jbryant@firenuggets.com
ONCE AGAIN SORRY FOR THE INCONVIENCE.
Sincerely,
Gino Galli
