I'm plumbing up a couple of tanks, just set a 1,750 gal. buried poly tank. Getting a 6,000 gal tank put in ASAP at the little unmanned firehall by my place that we can fill with a couple of trips with the tender. We're covering around 500 homes, and about that many rec. cabins, + the timber co. and state ground, with five volunteers. Good thing DNR keeps on the ball.
Cool thing about the rural fd here is they have a couple of pristine old trucks. One's a '60s Ford 1-ton dually that's still running the tires it was shipped with...no seat belts and the brakes are a joke with 350 gals on it. The old rigs will be gone soon, not up to current standards. Glad I got in at the end of an era. Shame they sold their WC brush truck before I started.
