(1)

Operating from four stations, the Lansing Fire Department responds to all alarms of fire, vehicle accidents, medical emergencies (EMS), hazardous material incidents (HazMat), and hazardous conditions in our response area. In a typical year, we will respond nearly 900-1000 times to calls for help, with a near-even split between EMS and all other calls. Our coverage area is one of the largest in the

county, in addition to being one of the most varied. Any day could bring a call to a farm, hotel, shopping mall, regional airport, manufacturing facility, mine, or power plant - in addition to the more common calls to private residences.

Yesterday we participated in the Lansing high school career day. Students were able to try on turnout gear, wear an SCBA and handle some of the equipment we use. They also got the chance to check out one of our engines.
Thank you LCSD for inviting us to be part of this special event.
