Fire Operations
North Lincoln Fire & Rescue has been fighting fires for over 100
years. Beginning as two separate department that were all
volunteer, North Lincoln Fire & Rescue has evolved into one
District that continues to provide the highest level of
professionalism and ability when it comes to fire attack. Each
firefighter is certified as a Firefighter I or II with over 100
hours of initial firefighter training, and then continually enhances
their performance through driver training, officer training and
skill proficiency through the Department’s Training Division. More
information about Fire Training can be found at the Training
Division
section.
While actual firefighting accounts for a small percentage of the
overall activities of the District, when a fire breaks out it takes
a coordinated and timely effort to save lives and property.
Therefore it is important that our firefighters be prepared at any
given moment with the latest tools and equipment. The newest
addition to the District is new self-contained breathing apparatus
purchased through a federal grant. Firefighters performed testing to
determine which SCBA would be best suited for our personnel, and
along with state-of-the-art protective gear and modern front-line
fire apparatus North Lincoln Fire & Rescue is fully prepared to
manage significant fire emergencies.
