A fire-fighting pumper vehicle that includes a cab configured to transport a crew of firefighters, a water tank disposed to the rear of the cab, and a chassis configured to support the cab, the water tank, and one or more fire pump systems disposed on the chassis proximate to, and forward of, the rear wheels. In some embodiments, the fire pump system includes a power take-off pump, which is configured to operate a water only system or a compressed-air foam system from a gear case of the fire pump. The fire pump system includes nested components and is located and configured to occupy less space than conventional fire pump systems.

Integrated pumper apparatus

A zero ground disturbance dike apparatus and method for the secondary containment of harmful chemicals that are stored in primary storage vessels, wherein the dike apparatus does not require the drilling of postholes or the setting of support posts in concrete. Sections of dike walls are attached to bracing assemblies, each bracing assembly being comprised of a brace and a base plate. Braces are configured to support the assembled wall sections and to provide resistance against the outwardly force exerted by material that is released from the primary storage vessel. Base plates attached to the braces assist in resisting bending moments that may be created about the base of the dike apparatus. The brace assembly also preferably includes at least one base support channel for additional base plate stiffness and support cables to further resist the outwardly forces exerted against the dike apparatus by said released materials.
