DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT:
The San Bernardino City Fire Department (SBCFD) is requesting funding assistance maintain compiiance with the department's
Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA).
The request is for the purchase of 25 SCBAs, 200 SCBA masks, and 200 SCBA air cyiinders. Each of these purchases which
will help facilitate compliance with NFPA standards. The total estimated cost of this project will be $351,350.
The 25 SCBA requested represent the latest in technoiogy and fire fighter safety in regards to Chemical, Biological, Radiological,
and Nuclear (CBRN) and Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health (IDLH) atmospheres. None of our current SCBA meet the
2007 standards set forth by the NFPA. These units comply with all current regulatory guidelines and are NIOSH approved. This
purchase will start our replacement program in which we will continue to strive for compliance with all standards and regulations
associated with fire fighter safety.
The purchase of 200 masks with communication capabilities fills two needs. First, it will ensure that all fire department SCBA
masks will be CBRN compliant. The second need is the communication capabilities of the new SCBA. The communication
devices we currently have are not compatible with the new technology. Communication problems continue to be a major
contributing factor in almost every fire ground fatality and serious injury.
The request for the purchase of 200 cylinders is to replace those cylinders, which have reached the end of their service life. All
cylinders have a service life of 15 years. We will lose approximately 150 cylinders in the next two years. We have already lost 50
cylinders in the last two years due to this service life limit. It is required to have a replacement cylinder for every SCBA available
at ali times.
OUR ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL NEED:
The City of San Bernardino has struggled through difficult economic times for severai years, and has been hit even harder with
the recent economic downturn. This has created significant erosion of purchasing power to the point that no funds exist for
purchases to replace and upgrade SCBAs. In addition, the City of San Bernardino has been dramatically affected by the State
budget, which limits our resources even further. This grant will help procure needed equipment in order to better serve our
community and improve fire safety.
