ISO says this pole barn hanger is a 3000 gpm fire flow for 3 hours. We shuttle and lay hose from cisterns that are 2 miles away to supply it.

One of three planes inside.
Station 1's overhead fill.
This cistern at station 2 is partially below ground and has a 1000 gpm pump to fill trucks over head. Note the draft conection in the retaining wall. It has a 5" cam lok fitting and a 6 inch female swivel.

Tank and overhead fill.
