The Bloomfield Fire Department has received a new rescue pumper engine for use in Bloomfield emergencies, and in aiding neighboring municipalities. The department will be donating one of its older trucks to La Vega, a 20 square mile municipality in the Dominican Republic with 250,000 residents and over 77,000 buildings.
“The Bloomfield Fire Department has consistently demonstrated its ability to handle all types of emergency situations,” said Mayor Michael Venezia. “The purchase of this 2019 E-One Typhoon E-Max Rescue Pumper Will bolster the response capabilities of this department.”
“Chief Venezia has consistently prioritized upgrading the fire department’s apparatus, tools and equipment,” said Director of Public Safety Samuel DeMaio.
