Question 1 of 30👑 VIP
Read the following passage carefully, then answer the question below. "When a fire is reported in a high-rise building, the FDNY's high-rise protocol requires the first engine company to proceed to the floor BELOW the reported fire floor and connect to the standpipe system. The ladder company ascends via the interior stairwell — never the elevator during active fire conditions. A primary command post is established in the building lobby; a secondary command post may be set up several floors below the fire. All radio traffic is coordinated through the incident commander. Firefighters are directed to conserve SCBA air by minimizing unnecessary exertion while climbing stairs." According to the passage, where should the first engine company connect to the standpipe system?
