his direction or permission, shall open any fire hydrant or draw water
therefrom, except that the Chiefs of the Town Fire Departments and
members of those fire companies shall be authorized to draw water

fire drills. In no case shall inexperienced persons be allowed to
manipulate or interfere with any such hydrants, gates, valves or other
fixtures of said district.
No bushes or large plants shall be planted around or block access
to said hydrants. No large objects such as vehicles or machinery shall
be parked near to or block access to hydrants.
