Hall No. 1 opened on May 25th, 1987 by His Worship Mayor
Ernest Burnett. As well as being an active fire hall, it is home to Delta's
fire administration offices and the office of the Fire Chief.
The area covered by Hall 1 is, south to and including the
B.C. Hydro railway right-of-way, including 72nd street and 64th street,
and down to Delta's boundaries and Robert's Bank Superport; east: to Vasey
Road including the Vancouver Landfill, as well as both sides of Highway
99 to and including the Massey Tunnel; north and west: to Delta's boundaries.
Some of the distinctive areas covered within these boundaries are: the
Boundary Bay Airport, Tilbury Island and Westshore Terminals at Robert's
Bank. |
Hall 1 houses the most manpower
and equipment of any of Delta's seven halls. The minimum staff on duty at
all times is eight, including a Battalion Chief, two officers, and five
firefighters.
There is one main engine, a spare engine, a ladder truck, a utility/air truck, and the Battalion Chief's command vehicle. The main
engine responds to all calls (medical, fire, motor vehicle incidents,
public assistance, etc.) within the Hall 1 area. The ladder responds to
all fire and motor vehicle incidents (MVI's) in the Hall 1 area, as well
as backing up Hall 2 (Tsawwassen) for fires, MVI's, and any other calls
that come in while Engine 2 is committed to an incident. The utility truck responds
to large incidents where refilling of breathing apparatus may be required,
and carries any extra equipment that may be needed, such as additional
air bottles, cribbing, and foam. It also serves as a post for firefighters
to go during a large incident to receive water and rest.
