Lake Mead NRA Fire Boat Brown Statement of Work
Background: On June 9th, 2024, Fireboat Brown was used to suppress a large marina fire on
Lake Mead. During suppression operations the engine powering the water pump caught fire.
Smoke and heat from the fire entered the main cabin of vessel. Unable to see, the operator broke out a cabin window in an attempted to clear the smoke from inside the cabin. Fireboat suppression operations were stopped. The vessel returned to dock using the outboard engines where the internal fire was extinguished.
