Our members operated with Haz Mat 26 in Franklin District 2 for a leaking transformer caused by an MVC. Our technicians evaluated the leak and turned it over to PSEG for clean up.
We are pleased to announce that Firefighter Chris Fischer and Firefighter Keith Stanckiewitz have completed and graduated from Firefighter 2. These 2 members have committed time to advance their knowledge and further their education. Their dedicated service to Franklin Township Fire District One as members of Elizabeth Ave Vol Fire Company is appreciated and commended.
This morning at 0437 hrs the Hillsborough Fire District was dispatched to the Northeast Great Dane company on Sunnymead Rd in 37's primary for the reported fire in the building. Chief 37 and Assistant 37 arrived on scene with smoke showing from the side garage bays and requested a full first alarm assignment on Box 3702. Engine 37 arrived and gained access through a door on the B side, encountering zero visibility and high heat but located a fire involving a tractor-trailer in the bay area. Engine 38 established a water supply along with Ladder 36 while Ladder 38 and Tower 37 crews went to the roof for ventilation. Units had the fire knocked down within 15 mins and spent an additional hour venting the building and performing overhaul. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
