On this day... 22 years (September 10th) ago, 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift. None of them saw past 10:00 am Sept 11, 2001. In one single moment life may never be the same. As you live and enjoy the breaths you take today and tonight before you go to sleep in preparation for your life tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, snuggle a little tighter, and never take one second of your life for granted.

As we remember the 22nd anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the New York City Fire Department has added 43 new names to its World Trade Center Memorial Wall commemorating firefighters, paramedics and civilian support staff members who have died from illnesses related to the rescue and recovery efforts in the aftermath of one of the darkest days in U.S. history.

The additions to the memorial wall bring the total number of FDNY members who have succumbed to post-9/11 illnesses to 331, which is nearly equal to the number of firefighters killed in the Twin Towers on the day of the attacks.

WE WILL NEVER FORGET!!

EDT FRIDAY.....EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 6 AM TO 10 PM EDT
FRIDAY...

* WHAT...For the Heat Advisory, heat index values up to 104
expected. For the Excessive Heat Warning, dangerously hot
conditions with heat index values up to 107 expected.

particularly for those working or participating in outdoor
activities.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A Heat Advisory may be needed on Saturday
as well.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out
of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors. Young
children and pets should never be left unattended in vehicles
under any circumstances.

Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When
possible reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or
evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat
stroke. Wear lightweight and loose fitting clothing when possible.
To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks
in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat
should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an
emergency! Call 9 1 1.

Excessive Heat Warning—Take Action! An Excessive Heat Warning is issued within 12 hours of the onset of extremely dangerous heat conditions. The general rule of thumb for this Warning is when the maximum heat index temperature is expected to be 105° or higher for at least 2 days and nighttime air temperatures will not drop below 75°; however, these criteria vary across the country, especially for areas not used to extreme heat conditions. If you don't take precautions immediately when conditions are extreme, you may become seriously ill or even die.

12/02/2022

Cooking is often a relaxing and fun task that brings family and friends together, but cooking is also the number one cause of home fires and home injuries. Being mindful while you cook, however, can go a long way to helping prevent these fires. Here is everything you need to know about cooking safely!

Cooking Fire Safety- Facts
Unattended cooking is the leading factor in home cooking fires.
Ranges accounted for the largest share of home cooking fire incidents.
Frying poses the greatest risk of fire.
Thanksgiving is the peak day for home cooking fires.
Two-thirds of home cooking fires started when food or other cooking materials caught fire.

Cooking and Fire Safety- Tips
Be on alert! If you are sleepy or have consumed alcohol don’t use the stove or stovetop.
Stay in the kitchen while you are frying, grilling, boiling or broiling food.
If you are simmering, baking or roasting food, check it regularly, remain in the kitchen while food is cooking, and use a timer to remind you that you are cooking.
Keep anything that can catch fire — oven mitts, wooden utensils, food packaging, towels or curtains — away from your stovetop.

11/30/2022

Although the popularity of carbon monoxide (CO) alarms has been growing in recent years, it cannot be assumed that everyone is familiar with the hazards of carbon monoxide poisoning in the home.

Often called the invisible killer, carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas created when fuels (such as gasoline, wood, coal, natural gas, propane, oil, and methane) burn incompletely. In the home, heating and cooking equipment that burn fuel are potential sources of carbon monoxide. Vehicles or generators running in an attached garage can also produce dangerous levels of carbon monoxide.

Carbon Monoxide Facts and Stats
The dangers of CO exposure depend on a number of variables, including the victim’s health and activity level. Infants, pregnant women, and people with physical conditions that limit their body’s ability to use oxygen (i.e. emphysema, asthma, heart disease) can be more severely affected by lower concentrations of CO than healthy adults would be.

A person can be poisoned by a small amount of CO over a longer period of time or by a large amount of CO over a shorter amount of time.

In 2010, U.S. fire departments responded to an estimated 80,100 non-fire CO incidents in which carbon monoxide was found, or an average of nine such calls per hour. The number of incidents increased 96 % from 40,900 incidents reported in 2003. This increase is most likely due to the increased use of CO detectors, which alert people to the presence of CO.

Because CO is odorless, colorless, and otherwise undetectable to the human senses, people may not know that they are being exposed. The initial symptoms of low to moderate CO poisoning are similar to the flu (but without the fever). They include:

Headache
Fatigue
Shortness of breath
Nausea
Dizziness

Be Part of Your Community!
The Fire service is a unique and complex business. In addition to being local heroes, today’s firefighters also serve as our nation’s first responders. First responders need to be well equipped and are tasked to be highly trained and capable of responding to all types of emergencies.

We recently submitted a grant request (through www.CarneyStrong.org) for decontamination supplies for Robertsville Volunteer Fire Co. 1. We were selected and received a small batch of decontamination wipes.

Here is a little background to the intiative.
Today October 19th will be the 5-year anniversary of the death of Battalion Chief Josh Carney, the firefighter that the foundation was created in memory of. Carney was a firefighter for more than 25 years as both a career and volunteer firefighter before his diagnosis with Malignant Melanoma, one of the several types of cancers that has been linked to occupational cancer among firefighters.

For Carney, he was always a firm believer in Pay It Forward, random acts of kindness, small gestures of hope and compassion. In this spirit, we have created a Special Donation Day of a small but impactful acts of kindness.


We would like to thank the foundation and Linda Carney for selected us. These wipes will be used on our apparatus for our personnel.

Last evening Hackensack Meridian Health instructed all township emergency services on their capabilities, as well as procedures and protocols of their Aeromedical Medevac Helicopter Airmed 2. Our responders were given a comprehensive presentation with plenty of time to ask questions and tour the helicopter. The aeromedical medevac helicopter is needed for a serious illness or injury. They also explained at their new site (brick hospital) they can be on the ground in Marlboro within 15 minutes, if they are not already handling another job. We thank them for their time. We also thank Marlboro First Aid and Rescue Squad, Inc. and Marlboro Township Police Department for setting it up.

At approximately 1412, units were dispatched for a reported dumpster fire in a parking lot. Upon arrival of Assistant Chief 67, it was confirmed that a dumpster was fully involved with unknown contents. Shortly after, it was reported that the contents were old tanning beds. Due to the nature of the products and unknown hazardous release to the environment, Monmouth County Hazmat was requested to respond. The fire was knocked down shortly after utilizing 1 1.75" line. Heavy contents were removed utilizing a winch.

Never forget..

On September 11, 2001, almost 3,000 people lost their lives during the attacks at the Twin Towers, Pentagon and aboard United Airlines Flight 93. At 8:46 a.m. ET, American Airlines Flight 11 (traveling from Boston to Los Angeles) hit the north tower of the World Trade Center in New York City. At 9:03 a.m. ET, United Airlines Flight 175 (traveling from Boston to Los Angeles) hit the south tower of the World Trade Center in New York City. At 9:37 a.m. ET, American Airlines Flight 77 (traveling from Dulles, Virginia, to Los Angeles) hit the Pentagon Building in Washington. And at 10:03 a.m. ET, United Airlines Flight 93 (traveling from Newark, New Jersey, to San Francisco) crashed in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

Unfortunately responders and those who lived in the area of the towers are still losing their lives. Let us never forget.

Over Two decades after foreign terrorists attacked Americans on U.S. soil, the impact of Sept. 11, 2001, is still being felt today. Hundreds of thousands of people remain at risk due to the trauma and exposure to toxic air following each attack. Carcinogens from building materials, gases and jet fuel laced the air around each crash site, with the most severe toxicity among the ruins of the World Trade Center towers in New York City.

An estimated 410,000 first responders, cleanup crews and survivors spent days and weeks breathing in air heavy with toxins from 400 tons of crushed concrete, glass and asbestos at Ground Zero. Exposure to contaminated air and toxic chemicals created a growing list of health concerns for many of the men and women who were there, with some illnesses such as mesothelioma taking approximately 20 years to develop.

To date, more people have now died from this toxic exposure than in the 9/11 attacks. Although 2,974 people lost their lives that day, 4,343 survivors and first responders have died in the years since, according to the World Trade Center Health Program.

Today is the day. Santa is here. He will be starting his journey around district 2 at 9am. Below is his route with approximate times. Be aware these times are subject to change. Our firefighters still need to keep the residents and the visitors of district 2 safe. We try to make sure the big guy gets to every inch of Fire District 2. We do unfortunately have to bypass certain streets due to space limitations with all the apparatus.

Cooking is often a relaxing and fun task that brings family and friends together, but cooking is also the number one cause of home fires and home injuries. Being mindful while you cook, however, can go a long way to helping prevent these fires. Here is everything you need to know about cooking safely!

Cooking Fire Safety- Facts
Unattended cooking is the leading factor in home cooking fires.
Ranges accounted for the largest share of home cooking fire incidents.
Frying poses the greatest risk of fire.
Thanksgiving is the peak day for home cooking fires.
Two-thirds of home cooking fires started when food or other cooking materials caught fire.

Cooking and Fire Safety- Tips
Be on alert! If you are sleepy or have consumed alcohol don’t use the stove or stovetop.
Stay in the kitchen while you are frying, grilling, boiling or broiling food.
If you are simmering, baking or roasting food, check it regularly, remain in the kitchen while food is cooking, and use a timer to remind you that you are cooking.
Keep anything that can catch fire — oven mitts, wooden utensils, food packaging, towels or curtains — away from your stovetop.

Be advised this evening from about 6pm on, there will be training evolutions being performed on vacant structures on Route 520 across from TD Bank and adjacent to Kenduck drive (entrance to Marlboro Plaza). Traffic will not be affected, just be aware of the emergency vehicles that will be in the area.
Although the popularity of carbon monoxide (CO) alarms has been growing in recent years, it cannot be assumed that everyone is familiar with the hazards of carbon monoxide poisoning in the home.

Often called the invisible killer, carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas created when fuels (such as gasoline, wood, coal, natural gas, propane, oil, and methane) burn incompletely. In the home, heating and cooking equipment that burn fuel are potential sources of carbon monoxide. Vehicles or generators running in an attached garage can also produce dangerous levels of carbon monoxide.

Carbon Monoxide Facts and Stats
The dangers of CO exposure depend on a number of variables, including the victim’s health and activity level. Infants, pregnant women, and people with physical conditions that limit their body’s ability to use oxygen (i.e. emphysema, asthma, heart disease) can be more severely affected by lower concentrations of CO than healthy adults would be.

A person can be poisoned by a small amount of CO over a longer period of time or by a large amount of CO over a shorter amount of time.

In 2010, U.S. fire departments responded to an estimated 80,100 non-fire CO incidents in which carbon monoxide was found, or an average of nine such calls per hour. The number of incidents increased 96 % from 40,900 incidents reported in 2003. This increase is most likely due to the increased use of CO detectors, which alert people to the presence of CO.

Because CO is odorless, colorless, and otherwise undetectable to the human senses, people may not know that they are being exposed. The initial symptoms of low to moderate CO poisoning are similar to the flu (but without the fever). They include:

Headache
Fatigue
Shortness of breath
Nausea
Dizziness

Be Part of Your Community!
The Fire service is a unique and complex business. In addition to being local heroes, today’s firefighters also serve as our nation’s first responders. First responders need to be well equipped and are tasked to be highly trained and capable of responding to all types of emergencies.

We need volunteers with all kinds of knowledge, skills, and abilities. Besides the men and women who respond to emergencies, other types of volunteers are also needed. Fire departments need the services of individuals with experience in business, accounting, law enforcement, mechanics, construction, computers, event planning, and fundraising
