As the New Year begins, part of our reflection involves our gratitude to the mutual aid fire and EMS companies who responded to two serious fires in Plainsboro in 2010 — the December 28 fire on Ravens Crest Drive and the October 5 fire on Pheasant Hollow Drive — and provided support and coverage to us throughout the year.
We would like to thank our mutual aid companies from Cranbury, East Windsor, Kingston, Princeton, Princeton Junction, Princeton Plasma Physics Lab, Lawrenceville, Lawrence Road, Applegarth, Central Monroe, and West Windsor for their prompt and professional response to these serious fires and to our other calls for backup and assistance. We’re proud to fight fires and serve the public beside you. We will be there for you whenever you need us.
We would also like thank the Plainsboro Rescue Squad and Township EMS for providing emergency medical assistance and rehabilitation services as well as coordinating the mutual aid EMS companies who lent their support.
We would also like to thank the Plainsboro Township Police Department, with whom we work closely on a daily basis, for their camaraderie and assistance at the hundreds of incidents to which we responded during the year.
Major incidents like this require a great deal of coordination and we would also like to acknowledge the work of the Mercer County Communications staff in ensuring that we had the resources we needed to do the job safely and efficiently. This is done in coordination with the Middlesex County Fire Marshall’s Fire Coordinator Division.
