Which list accurately represents the facilities served by the AFFF proportioning pumps?

• A. Hangar Bays (13 groups), Weapons Elevators, RARs and MMRs #7,8,9, and 14, JP-5 Pump Rooms, EDGs, Incinerator, and Hose Reels
• B. Hangar Bays (13 groups), Weapons Elevators, RARs and MMRs #7,8,9, and 14
• C. RARs and MMRs #1-4
• D. JP-5 Pump Rooms, EDGs, Incinerator, and Hose Reels

Answer: (B)

AFFF proportioning pumps are designed to feed foam concentrate to areas where a fuel or ordnance fire is most likely to start and spread, so they’re positioned to protect those high-risk spaces. The facilities actually served by these pumps are Hangar Bays (13 groups), Weapons Elevators, and the RARs and MMRs labeled with the numbers 7, 8, 9, and 14. These areas are part of the aircraft hangar and weapons handling/ storage zones that require foam protection, so they’re included in the distribution. The other locations listed—JP-5 Pump Rooms, Emergency Diesel Generators (EDGs), Incinerator, and Hose Reels—are not fed by the AFFF proportioning pumps in this system configuration, so they aren’t part of the accurate set.
