Tanker 1 (2020 Pierce Enforcer Job #34503) was placed in service today at 9 a.m. The 1500 gpm / 2000 gallon pumper-tanker will primarily serve as the departments only tanker but will be first-out over the next 90 days to work out any potential kinks. Thanks to the committee members who spec'd out a great tanker; to the members who worked diligently to mount equipment; and to the town and county for their continued support of public safety. ...
