Question 279Safety & Environmental - Assistant Engineer

The correct answer is D) All of the above. The lifeline which is part of a fireman's outfit must meet the following requirements: 1) Not less than 50 feet in length - This ensures the fireman has sufficient length to safely maneuver and be retrieved from a hazardous situation. 2) Corrosion resistant - The lifeline must be able to withstand exposure to water, chemicals, and other environmental factors without degrading. 3) Made of steel or bronze wire rope - These materials provide the necessary strength and durability for the lifeline to perform its critical safety function. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not fully encompass the complete regulatory requirements for a fireman's lifeline.
