Why NFPA 1142 Is Vital for Rural Safety

Fires in rural and suburban areas often spread quickly due to terrain, vegetation, and long response times. NFPA 1142 provides a framework for identifying alternative water sources—such as cisterns, ponds, portable tanks, and other static supplies—ensuring that fire departments are equipped and communities are protected.

Key benefits of following NFPA 1142 include:

• Improved ISO ratings and insurance savings

• Reduced response time and water accessibility gaps

• Standardized planning for local agencies and departments
