Executive Summary with Rationale and Impact:
Detailed description of the item and why we are doing it. This can be a separate attachment.
The Denver Fire Department of the City and County of Denver is donating expired extrication and fire protective equipment to Bomberos Voluntarios de San Pedro, Coahuila, Mexico. The list of expired equipment includes:
Extrication Equipment
• 12- Spreaders
• 12- Power Unit
• 8- Cutters
• 13- Rams
Personal Protective Equipment
• 31- NXG2 Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) Packs
• 5- Sets of Bunking Jackets, Pants and Helmets Personal Protective Gear
The Denver Fire Department adheres to a replacement cycle for capital equipment based on safety requirements for operational and personal protective equipment. The listed items were primarily inherited from mergers with other fire departments and have vastly exceeded their expiration dates. Although the listed items no longer meet the required National Fire Protection Administration (NFPA) guidelines followed by DFD, they are still functional and would be of great value to the Bomberos Voluntarios de San Pedro, Coahuila, Mexico.
The estimated surplus value of the equipment proposed to be donated is $1,170.
