Question 17:
Choose the incorrect tactic for extinguishing a cellar fire at an Old Law Tenement.

If the first hoseline is stretched to the interior and cannot be advanced down to the cellar due to the intensity of the fire, it shall be used to protect the public hall, interior stairs, and the first floor.

B: When an exterior entrance exists, especially in the front of the building, that entrance should be utilized if it provides the quickest access to the cellar to extinguish the fire. The use of an exterior cellar entrance at an advanced cellar fire is frequently safer and more efficient to initially attack the fire.

C :Initial vertical ventilation shall be coordinated and controlled by the IC. All horizontal ventilation shall be coordinated and controlled by the Ladder Company Officer operating in the area to be vented (fire floor, floor above, etc.).

D: When the first hoseline advances down the interior stairs, the second hoseline will be stretched to back-up the first hoseline and will be positioned at the top of the interior stairs. If the first hoseline does not advance down the interior stairs, the second hoseline will be stretched into the cellar via an exterior cellar entrance to extinguish the fire.

E: Ventilation must be provided at the roof over the stairway, at the top of the dumbwaiter shaft and other shafts and vertical openings. Ventilation shall also be provided via the cellar windows, doors, trap doors, and by intermittently opening and closing the door at the top of the interior cellar stairs after all of the occupants have been evacuated.
