Utah Air National Guard responds to double tanker semi-truck fire
151st Wing
Jan. 18, 2018 | 3:57
The Utah Air National Guard Fire Department was called to respond to a major fire incident in Midvale, Utah, at approximately 8:20 p.m. on Jan. 18, 2017, after a double tanker semi-trailer hauling 9,000 gallons of gasoline and 1,000 gallons of diesel fuel overturned on 1-15 southbound near 7200 South, resulting in a boiling liquid expanding vapor explosion, or BLEVY.
The local fire department requested UTANG's assistance due to the unit's unique firefighting capabilities, specifically calling for the use of its Oshkosh Striker 3000, a specialized Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) vehicle that can carry up to 3,000 gallons of water and 420 gallons of foam and is typically used to extinguish large aircraft fires.
