Dear Commissioner:
19374.E
DIVISION OF
FIRE PREVENTION
Howard J. Scannell, Chief
In review of our conversation of the other day,
I would appreciate your permission to utilize the hydraulic
"Hi- Ranger" trucks used by your Lighting Maintenance crews.
I believe that the units would be of definite value to us in
a number of emergency situations.
Of course, I realize that a unit could be at our
disposal only if one happened to be available at your garage.
If this arrangement can be worked out, I should like to train
a number of my men in their operation at our drill tower, with
an assist from one of your crewmen.
I am
FEO:em
Thanking you for your consideration of this matter,
Sincerely yours,

Dear Commissioners
Re Fire Chief Oberg•s request for use of our "bucket" trucks,
we do not object to this use for training purposes. May we
suggest that they contact our foreman at CA 2 -7133 the day
befoie they propose to use them so the truck or trucks will
be made available? We use these two more than any others.
Chief Oberg mentions the use of this equipment in emergency
situations. I think we should warn him that the probabilities
are not good that these trucks will be on hand when needed.
Yours )(ery truly,
HOW RD LOWE
