Duty Officer Vehicle - 2003 Chevy Suburban
Haz-Mat 29 maintains a duty officer program 24/7, 365 days a year during which a chief, captain or lieutenant is assigned as a first response officer during alarms or when technical guidance is requested by a local emergency service agency. With over 50% of Haz-Mat 29’s responses handled by the duty officer, these rigs are equipped to handle a variety of incidents. Their equipment complement includes spill control supplies, air monitoring equipment, mercury clean-up kits and material sampling kits. All three duty officer vehicles (including a 2009 Ford Expedition EL and 2005 Ford Explorer) are equipped with on-board computers (Chief 29 has a MacBook Pro) while the vehicles pictured also feature printer/copiers.
