Story
Sunday August, 28 2011 @ approximately 12 n. Nature: Final Survey of Fire District – Indian River’s Fire District Identified herewith are various photographs of the Indian River’s emergency response stand-by crews and area of response at approximately 12 n. on Sunday, August 28, 2011. The photographs are the result of surveying the following areas within the fire district as well as responding to various incidents within the fire district during the final hours of Hurricane Irene. The analysis identified areas of concern with downed trees, downed utility wires, tidal flooding debris as well as roadway hazards with large holes or other roadway hazards. The Delaware Department of Transportation and the various utility companies are actively pursuing restoration of roadways, utilities, and removal of other ancillary debris. In many cases, all entities are pursuing the common goal of full restoration of normal activities within our day-to-day operations. Indian River has relocated all of their emergency apparatus back to the various stations; discontinued the assistance of the Delaware National Guard; and dismissed all stand-by crews as well as reverted back to normal fire company dispatching operations. The Indian River Volunteer Fire Company wishes to acknowledge the cooperation and support of its volunteers as well as acknowledging the cooperation of our residents with addressing the storm accommodations.
