Assistance to Firefighters Grant's Program �`_ �� Project Narrative Applicant: Category: City Of Saint Paul 1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Department of Fire and Safety Services Please egplain why this program would be beneficial to your community and/or to your department. Self Contained Breathing Apparatus Face Pieces: A. The depaztment will need to replace our current SCBA face pieces soon due to the manufacturers notice of replacement part unavailability within a short period of time. B. By issuing individual firefighter face pieces for the SCBA's we will be providing our firefighters the latest standazd in firefighter health, wellness, and safety related to communicable disease and infection control guidelines. The individualized face piece distribution will limit the risk of air and vapor borne communicabl}� transmitted diseases, viruses, and infections. Respiratory, skin, and eye infections along with influenza can lx easily transmitted if a face piece is not properly sanitized after each use. C. Clear communication is essential to the safety of firefighting personnel on the fire ground. Our department has experienced severe problems with communication via portable radios when used in conjunction with the current face pieces. The proposed new face pieces contain the latest in voice diaphragm technology and w-ould greafl}� improve fire ground communication while wearing the SCBA face piece. D. Repetitive cleaning and sanitation reduces the life of SCBA face pieces. Individual SCBA face piece issuance will reduce the amount of times the face pieces will have to be cleaned and sanitized thereby extending the lifz of each face piece with a long term cost benefit to the department and the City. 2 Assistance to Firefighters GrauYs Program Project Narrative Applicant: City Of Saint Paul Department of Fire and Safety Services Category: 1. Firefighting Equipment (FFE) �J\-4�� Please explain why this program would be beneficial to your community and/or to yo¢r department. Thermal Image Cameras A. Thermal imagers benefit both the heatth and safety of firef ghters and the health and safery of the community. By allowing fuefighters to see through blinding smoka, a thermai ima�e camera helps to restore vision to firef ghters, enabling them to locate unconscious victims in smoke-f tled rooms. The cameras also aid personnei in detecting structural dangers before they can cause injury and/or death to those inside the structure. Tn overhaul, thermat imagers a11ow quick and effective pinpointing of hot spots, a process which can require hours of time without the technology. B. With the transmitting capability of a thermal image camera, an Incident Commander can see the scope of the fire from outside the structure, allowing direction and deployment of resources where they are best utilized. Incident command is made even more effective with wireless transmission, as it allows firefighters to transmit an image from inside the fize, enabling the commander to assist in monitoring fire conditions that could endanger personnel fighting the fire. C. Thermal imagers can be used for many applications outside of structural firefighiing. During hazardous materials incidents, firefighters can identify sources of vapors and gases, and determine liquid levels in containers, helping to manage hazardoas materials spills and other conditions more effectively. Because thermal imagers allow thzm to monitor environments from a distance, they are less likely to be in danger in these situations.

Assistance to Firefighters Grant's Program �`_ �� Project Narrative Applicant: Category: City Of Saint Paul 1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Department of Fire and Safety Services Please egplain why this program would be beneficial to your community and/or to your department. Self Contained Breathing Apparatus Face Pieces: A. The depaztment will need to replace our current SCBA face pieces soon due to the manufacturers notice of replacement part unavailability within a short period of time. B. By issuing individual firefighter face pieces for the SCBA's we will be providing our firefighters the latest standazd in firefighter health, wellness, and safety related to communicable disease and infection control guidelines. The individualized face piece distribution will limit the risk of air and vapor borne communicabl}� transmitted diseases, viruses, and infections. Respiratory, skin, and eye infections along with influenza can lx easily transmitted if a face piece is not properly sanitized after each use. C. Clear communication is essential to the safety of firefighting personnel on the fire ground. Our department has experienced severe problems with communication via portable radios when used in conjunction with the current face pieces. The proposed new face pieces contain the latest in voice diaphragm technology and w-ould greafl}� improve fire ground communication while wearing the SCBA face piece. D. Repetitive cleaning and sanitation reduces the life of SCBA face pieces. Individual SCBA face piece issuance will reduce the amount of times the face pieces will have to be cleaned and sanitized thereby extending the lifz of each face piece with a long term cost benefit to the department and the City. 2 Assistance to Firefighters GrauYs Program Project Narrative Applicant: City Of Saint Paul Department of Fire and Safety Services Category: 1. Firefighting Equipment (FFE) �J\-4�� Please explain why this program would be beneficial to your community and/or to yo¢r department. Thermal Image Cameras A. Thermal imagers benefit both the heatth and safety of firef ghters and the health and safery of the community. By allowing fuefighters to see through blinding smoka, a thermai ima�e camera helps to restore vision to firef ghters, enabling them to locate unconscious victims in smoke-f tled rooms. The cameras also aid personnei in detecting structural dangers before they can cause injury and/or death to those inside the structure. Tn overhaul, thermat imagers a11ow quick and effective pinpointing of hot spots, a process which can require hours of time without the technology. B. With the transmitting capability of a thermal image camera, an Incident Commander can see the scope of the fire from outside the structure, allowing direction and deployment of resources where they are best utilized. Incident command is made even more effective with wireless transmission, as it allows firefighters to transmit an image from inside the fize, enabling the commander to assist in monitoring fire conditions that could endanger personnel fighting the fire. C. Thermal imagers can be used for many applications outside of structural firefighiing. During hazardous materials incidents, firefighters can identify sources of vapors and gases, and determine liquid levels in containers, helping to manage hazardoas materials spills and other conditions more effectively. Because thermal imagers allow thzm to monitor environments from a distance, they are less likely to be in danger in these situations.

Assistance to Firefighters Grant's Program �`_ �� Project Narrative Applicant: Category: City Of Saint Paul 1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Department of Fire and Safety Services Please egplain why this program would be beneficial to your community and/or to your department. Self Contained Breathing Apparatus Face Pieces: A. The depaztment will need to replace our current SCBA face pieces soon due to the manufacturers notice of replacement part unavailability within a short period of time. B. By issuing individual firefighter face pieces for the SCBA's we will be providing our firefighters the latest standazd in firefighter health, wellness, and safety related to communicable disease and infection control guidelines. The individualized face piece distribution will limit the risk of air and vapor borne communicabl}� transmitted diseases, viruses, and infections. Respiratory, skin, and eye infections along with influenza can lx easily transmitted if a face piece is not properly sanitized after each use. C. Clear communication is essential to the safety of firefighting personnel on the fire ground. Our department has experienced severe problems with communication via portable radios when used in conjunction with the current face pieces. The proposed new face pieces contain the latest in voice diaphragm technology and w-ould greafl}� improve fire ground communication while wearing the SCBA face piece. D. Repetitive cleaning and sanitation reduces the life of SCBA face pieces. Individual SCBA face piece issuance will reduce the amount of times the face pieces will have to be cleaned and sanitized thereby extending the lifz of each face piece with a long term cost benefit to the department and the City. 2 Assistance to Firefighters GrauYs Program Project Narrative Applicant: City Of Saint Paul Department of Fire and Safety Services Category: 1. Firefighting Equipment (FFE) �J\-4�� Please explain why this program would be beneficial to your community and/or to yo¢r department. Thermal Image Cameras A. Thermal imagers benefit both the heatth and safety of firef ghters and the health and safery of the community. By allowing fuefighters to see through blinding smoka, a thermai ima�e camera helps to restore vision to firef ghters, enabling them to locate unconscious victims in smoke-f tled rooms. The cameras also aid personnei in detecting structural dangers before they can cause injury and/or death to those inside the structure. Tn overhaul, thermat imagers a11ow quick and effective pinpointing of hot spots, a process which can require hours of time without the technology. B. With the transmitting capability of a thermal image camera, an Incident Commander can see the scope of the fire from outside the structure, allowing direction and deployment of resources where they are best utilized. Incident command is made even more effective with wireless transmission, as it allows firefighters to transmit an image from inside the fize, enabling the commander to assist in monitoring fire conditions that could endanger personnel fighting the fire. C. Thermal imagers can be used for many applications outside of structural firefighiing. During hazardous materials incidents, firefighters can identify sources of vapors and gases, and determine liquid levels in containers, helping to manage hazardoas materials spills and other conditions more effectively. Because thermal imagers allow thzm to monitor environments from a distance, they are less likely to be in danger in these situations.
