At approximately 3:30 pm on Sunday, May 31, Machin Fire responded to a single vehicle MVC 20 km west of Vermilion Bay on Hwy 17. A vehicle left the road and started on fire in the ditch. 7 firefighters responded with 3 apparatus and extinguished the vehicle.

The fire ignited grass in the ditch and extended towards the treeline. MNR fire crews responded rapidly and were able to stop the fire before it spread into the trees. We thank the MNR for their assistance and efforts which prevented this from developing into a more serious incident.

No injuries resulted from the MVC or resulting fire

for any downed power lines or trees down on power lines stay at least 10m (30 ft) away to protect yourself from electrical shock from electricity travelling through the ground.

Call 911 and Hydro One and keep your distance. Even if there is no visible arcing the lines could still be live.

Low hanging power lines require caution. If you see one, stay at least 10 metres away and report it immediately.

Happy International Firefighters Day!

On this day we'd like to thank and acknowledge not only the volunteers of Machin Fire, but all the firefighters in our neighbouring departments that commit a significant amount of their time to protect our communities, responding at all hours of the day and night, in addition to ongoing training to learn new skills and tactics and continually hone and practice them.

Your dedication is greatly appreciated!
