When must the PPE/Clothing Coordinator return cleaned items back to the station before?

The PPE/Clothing Coordinator must return cleaned items back to the station by 2000 hours to ensure that all personnel have access to their required personal protective equipment (PPE) in a timely manner. This timeframe is critical because it allows firefighters to have their gear ready for the next shift, minimizing downtime and ensuring that safety standards are maintained for all operational activities. Returning the cleaned items by this deadline helps maintain the readiness of the department and supports the overall operational effectiveness of the Houston Fire Department.
