Greg Barta said the threat of wildfires in Southern California spans beyond just what was once known as \u201cfire season.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re under constant threat of wildfires year-round here,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The best way to keep the fires small and contained, he said, is to use the HeloPod to do quick, multiple drops.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMore drops on fires with fire helicopters greatly increases our ability to keep fires small and reduces the risk to the community,\u201d Barta said.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Helicopters can quickly refill their water supply using the solar-powered HeloPod, which has 3,775 gallons of water readily available. Helicopters hover over the HeloPod, then suck in water through a snorkel-like device. When water is syphoned, the storage pod automatically refills at about 400 gallons per minute.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey can do that over and over again,\u201d Barta said.<\/p>\n<p>The hope is to have the HeloPod up and running by early July. In the coming weeks, the land will be graded, gravel will be put down and plumbing will be connected to supply the water.<\/p>\n<p>The latest addition was paid for with $100,000 in discretionary funds from Fifth District Supervisor Katrina Foley, who also serves as director of the Orange County Fire Authority.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=8083\">Barney Frank, a liberal congressman and trailblazer for gay rights, dies. He was 86<\/a><\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cWe are now, along the ridge, much safer,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Foley said she saw how effective the system was in neighboring cities. In San Clemente, firefighters have typically had to get water from neighboring towns or from a golf course lake to quell fires.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is going to be a lot better for those San Clemente residents,\u201d Foley said.<\/p>\n<p>A fire raging last year in Laguna Beach was minutes from destroying homes, but flames were quickly extinguished by helicopters using the HeloPod, she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose homes were going to burn in two minutes,\u201d Foley said. \u201cIf it weren\u2019t for the quick response of the helicopters and the HeloPod, they would have been gone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know that fire season is all-year long,\u201d she added. \u201cWe need to have all the resources available, especially water, easy access and quick response to be able to extinguish fires before they spread. We\u2019ve learned a lot of lessons over the years about how important easy access is, so we want to make sure we have it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The county in 2024 invested in two new Firehawk helicopters that can hold 1,000 gallons of water. OCFA also operates two Bell 412EP helicopters that can carry about 375 gallons per drop.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a newer technology,\u201d Barta said of the HeloPod, \u201cand we\u2019re fortunate to be on the forefront of that technology.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The HeloPods can be used not just for OCFA helicopters, but also by partner agencies responding to fires such as Cal Fire.<\/p>\n<p>The goal is to always keep fires 95% contained, at 10 acres or less, Barta said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s an ambitious goal, but we\u2019ve been able to do that, from land and air,\u201d he said. \u201cHaving our helicopters make water drops really improves our goal of keeping fires small, before it can impact communities, structures and homes. This will be a huge benefit to us on that forefront.\u201d<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=8081\">Adelanto ICE detainees launch hunger strike to demand improved conditions<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OCFA helicopters can quickly refill their water supply using the solar-powered HeloPod, which has\u00a0 3,775 gallons of water readily available.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8086,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8092","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-based-on-facts-either-observed-and-verified-directly-by-the-reporter-or-reported-and-verified-from-knowledgeable-sources","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
