By the time Thanksgiving rolls around, East Jefferson Fire Rescue Chief Bret Black will have been serving the county for a year.
And as part of his plan for the future of firefighting in Jefferson County, Black’s proud to announce that starting Sept. 1, three personnel are being promoted to battalion chief.
Jason MacDonald, Justin Clouse, and Justin Fletcher are being promoted internally to the first-ever battalion chiefs in Jefferson County history. Some of the responsibilities the three new battalion chiefs will take on include emergency response command, control of significant incidents, project management, shift training, grant development, and data analysis.
