A pumping unit could certainly do this, as many are set up to take on water from a lake or pond, especially in rural fire departments.

It has a hose that goes into the standing water and a hose that pumps the water into the street or where ever. These might be needed when putting out a fire in a house and needing to access the basement area in order to shut off the electricity or gas in a house.
