🔥Haz-mat Training🔥

Today two of our Investigators attended modern day decon presented by Bad Day Training with other responders in the county.

Did you Know per NFPA 1033 Fire Investigators are required to maintain competence in recognizing chemical and toxic hazards. During the investigation process our Investigators encounter many different hazards including hazards that may have not been intially known during firefighting operations.

Thank you to Logan County EMA and Hazmat for putting together a great training.

Today we were able to attend a valuable training session presented by Bad Day Training focused on modern-day decontamination (Decon) operations.

The training covered current decontamination practices, techniques, and considerations for effectively protecting responders, patients, and the community during hazardous material incidents.

We appreciate Bad Day Training for bringing quality, real-world instruction to our members and helping us continue to improve our readiness and capabilities.

Departments in Attendance:
Huntsville Volunteer Fire Department, Ohio

Today our team was paged to assist the Bellefontaine Fire Department and their Investigators with a working residential structure fire, unfortunately the fire resulted in one adult fatality. Our team responded with 4 Investigators and supported BFD and the State Fire Marshal's Office Investigators. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this time.
