The RTFD assists Franklin with a Building Fire at EMF Development
On November18, 2009 the RTFD went to assist Franklin Fire for a report of a working building fire located on River Avenue at the EMF Development Recycling Corp. The Duty Chief (DC Meyers) and Truck (Batt. Ellsworth) went on the road within seconds of the assignmentgiven. Tanker 3-1 (Sgt. Delusa) as well went out for the assignment to handle the water supply. The Duty Chief arrived and had the Truck’s crew stand by while Franklin crews worked to put the large rubbish fire out that involved shredded car interiors. The Truck was placed back into service and headed back to the Township of Richland while the Tanker stood by for water if needed. All 3 units went back into service just over 30 minutes into the incident. While this incident was going on, the RTFD had two additional crews standing by at 1321 Scalp Ave (Headquarters) for any other incidents if they arise. Total amount for staffing for this incident was 19 members.
