, Used on all multiple-company emergency responses. The first arriving
vehicles of each type proceed directly to the scene, and the others stand by
a block or two from the scene and await orders. Units usually stage at the last
intersection on their route of travel before reaching the reported incident
location.
Around-the-pump Proportioner

Apparatus mounted foam Proportioner in which a small quantity of water is
diverted from the apparatus pump through an inline Proportioner.
