Trench Rescue Training
 
April 6, 2019
 

This month’s topic for Technical Rescue Training was Trench Rescue Operations. Crews reviewed SOGs and equipment. They then operated in a T-trench, that was dug at the West Goshen Township Wastewater Treatment Plant. Training lasted about four hours.

Fame is the lead company for Trench/Excavation Rescue on the Chester County Rescue Task Force. Members from Station 38 (Thorndale) and Station 47 (Lionville) also attended today’s drill.

Special thanks to West Goshen Township for use of their facility.
