Here is a summary of Brentwood Fire and Rescue’s emergency responses for the period of November 28 through December 12, 2011.


We responded to 104 emergency calls for service.


These calls can be broken down into the following categories:

EMS/Rescue: 61

Hazardous Condition: 5

Service Call: 6

Good Intent: 16

False Call: 16


Here is an overview of significant events from this period’s activities:


Monday, November 28 at approximately 9:39 am:

E1 was dispatched to a Fire Department Assistance call due to a light fixture in a commercial occupancy which had produced a small flame and smoke when turned on.  The store manager turned off the power to the light prior to FD arrival.  E1 visually inspected the area and found a small burned patch near the ceiling where the wiring and light connected.  E1 then checked the area with the TIC and ensured that no additional hazards were present.  The manager was advised to keep the power to the light fixture off until an electrician could provide service.


Tuesday, November 29 at approximately 1:25 am:

E4 was dispatched for a report of a tree down in the roadway. Two vehicles had struck the tree, but there were no injuries. Crew members utilized E4’s chainsaw to remove the hazard.


Tuesday, November 29 at approximately 4:41 pm:

E3 was dispatched on a report of a gasoline spill. Upon arrival, E3 found a portable plastic gasoline container melted to the exhaust near the engine of a passenger vehicle. A jack was utilized to lift the vehicle, allowing for the removal of the can. Oil absorbent was applied to the area to contain the spill. With the hazard mitigated, E3 returned to quarters.


Tuesday, November 29 at approximately 9:33 pm:

E1 was dispatched on a report of a person trapped in elevator.  E1 arrived on scene to find the elevator car on the 1st floor.  The responsible party on-site had been able to open the exterior doors; however the interior doors would only open approximately 6" before stopping/jamming.  E1 personnel contacted the elevator service personnel and secured power to elevator. The elevator technician returned their call and was given an explanation of the situation.  E1 was then able to determine that a jam existed near the bottom of the left interior door.  Per discussion with the elevator technician, E1’s haligan tool was used to pry up on the jammed area of the door until the jam cleared.  The uninjured occupant was freed without further incident.  The cause of the jam was determined to be a drywall screw that had wedged in the track of the door.  The screw was removed and the elevator was placed back in service.   


Thursday, December 1 at approximately 9:02 am:

E3 responded on a report of a 2 year old locked inside a vehicle. Upon arrival, crew members located the vehicle and utilized their lock out kit to unlock the vehicle and free the uninjured child. With no further hazards, E3 returned to quarters.

Tuesday, November 8 at approximately 5:39 pm:

E3 was dispatched on a reported MVA involving four vehicles. R1 was called for to extricate one PT that was uninjured but unable to exit their vehicle due to it being trapped between the wall and another vehicle.

Brentwood Fire & Rescue/ United States Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program – 2011

Press Release for Brentwood Fire & Rescue/ United States Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program – 2011

As the 2011 holiday season quickly approaches, Brentwood Firefighters hope to help spread a little holiday cheer this year. Brentwood Fire & Rescue is once again joining forces with the United States Marine Corps Reserves to provide drop off points for the Marine Corps Toys for Tots Program. Each fire station, as well as the Brentwood City Library and Brentwood City Service Center on General George Patton Drive, will be collecting new, unwrapped toys for children in need throughout the middle Tennessee area. Collection started the beginning of November and will last through December 25th.

Brentwood Fire Chief Brian Goss commented on the program, “We once again look forward to the collaborative effort between our department and the United States Marine Corps. This is our third year collecting for Toys for Tots and we hope to build upon the success we’ve enjoyed in years past.” Brentwood Fire & Rescue collected over 1,100 toys in 2010 with an estimated value of nearly $12,000.

Staff Sergeant Scott Benaske with India Company, 3rd Battalion, 24th Marines and the Nashville Area Marine Corps Toys for Tots Program Coordinator is excited for this year’s Toys for Tots. “Last year Toys for Tots in Middle Tennessee provided over 70,000 toys to over 28,000 children. This would not have been possible without organizations like the Brentwood Fire & Rescue who were instrumental in the success of the 2010 Toys for Tots campaign in Williamson County.” Staff Sergeant Benaske added, “Toys for Tots is honored to work with Brentwood Fire & Rescue again this year.”

The United States Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Foundation oversees the nation-wide program that serves over 500 communities in all 50 states. They are an IRS recognized 501(c)(3) not-for-profit public charity. Since 1991, the Toys for Tots Program has donated over 80 million toys valued at close to $490 million.

This year, Brentwood will be concentrating on the Toys for Tots program only. They will not be accepting used Christmas decorations as they did last year which was designed to assist flood victims. You can help the Marines and Brentwood Fire & Rescue with their mission by dropping off a new, unwrapped toy at one of the four Brentwood Fire Stations, the Brentwood City Library, the Brentwood City Service Center, or any Toys for Tots drop off location. Just look for a drop off location by spotting a Toys for Tots poster in the window of a business or visit the Nashville Marines Toys for Tots website at www.ToysForTots.org and select Nashville, Tennessee.

The addresses for the four Brentwood Fire Stations can be found at the Brentwood Fire & Rescue website, www.Brentwood-Tn.org/Fire. Toys can be brought by any time. Toys that are damaged or opened from their original package cannot be distributed.

Fire Chief's Briefing for October 19 through October 25, 2011


Here is a summary of Brentwood Fire and Rescue’s emergency responses for the period of October 19 through October 25, 2011.


We responded to 50 emergency calls for service.


These calls can be broken down into the following categories:

Fire: 3

EMS/Rescue: 29

Service Call: 4

Good Intent: 4

False Call: 10


Here is an overview of significant events from this period’s activities:


Wednesday, October 19 at approximately 6:45 am:

E1 was dispatched on a report of a tree down on Maryland Way that was impeding traffic. E1 arrived on scene, cut up the tree, and removed the debris from the roadway before returning to quarters.


Wednesday, October 19 at approximately 5:37 pm:

E4 and R1 responded on a reported vehicle rollover. E4 arrived on the scene and found one SUV which had rolled but was once again resting upright. There were two occupants trapped inside the vehicle, neither of them injured critically.  E4 established Incident Command and called for E2 to be dispatched for additional manpower. As R1 arrived on the scene, E4 stabilized the vehicle, deployed a hand line, and disconnected the battery to deactivate the air bags. R1 prepared the hydraulic cutters for extrication and E2 arrived on the scene to assist. Personnel used the cutters from E4 and R1 to remove the vehicle's roof by cutting the roof support pillars.  Both patients were removed and BFR personnel assisted in packaging and loading the pts for transport to an area hospital by EMS. Command was terminated; all companies cleared the scene after being released by BPD.


Thursday, October 20 at approximately 3:52 pm:

E3 responded to a report of a 3 month old baby locked inside a vehicle. Alarm advised E3 that the child had been in the vehicle for approximately 2-3 min. Upon arrival, the vehicle was already unlocked by the parent. The parent stated that while E3 was enroute they checked the back door of the vehicle and it was unlocked. The child was uninjured and the parent stated that they did not need any further assistance.


Friday, October 21 at approximately 10:03 pm:

At approximately 10:00 p.m. Friday night, Brentwood Fire & Rescue personnel were dispatched to a structure fire at 17 Oxmoor Ct. in Governors Club.  Upon arrival just minutes later, Engine 4 reported black smoke coming from the eves and chimney area.  Moments later they reported a working attic fire.

Crews made an aggressive attack via an interior stairwell and quickly located the main body of fire.  Crews were attacking the fire when it broke through the roof on the C (right) side of the home approximately 10 minutes after arrival.  Interior crews continued to make progress and the fire had completely darkened down when it moved through an adjacent attic space.  The roof structure was complex and the attic contained several cuts and void spaces which enabled the fire to travel unchecked.  The home also contained a heavy slate roof which held the heat, impeded roof-top ventilation, and lead to early roof collapse simply due to sheer weight (27 pounds per square foot).  Heavy slate tiles the size and weight of bricks were falling around fire personnel all night.

The fire was deemed under control at approximately 3:00 a.m., although resources would remain on scene for the next 24-hours.  Brentwood Fire & Rescue personnel removed three pets, four cars, and several boxes of photos and belongings.  The fire was held to the roof, attic and part of the second floor with water damage to the basement and first floor.


Saturday, October 22 at approximately 10:41 am:

All BFR units were dispatched for a report of a fire in a chimney with flames visible. E3 was the first unit to arrive on scene. E3’s officer reported light smoke showing and established command. Smoke was visible inside the structure, and a small fire was found in the fireplace which was quickly extinguished.  The rest of the structure was searched with no extension found.

E4's crew was sent to the roof to check the eve vents and remove the chimney cap to check for fire. The chimney cap, along with a section of attached flue pipe, was removed.  Once the cap was on the ground, personnel discovered a large, partially-burned bird's nest.  It was determined that the nest had ignited, causing smoke to bank-down and fill the home.  Further evidence of the nest was found around the damper.  No further evidence of fire extension was discovered.


 Monday, October 24 at approximately 3:37 pm:

All BFR units were dispatched for a reported structure fire in east Brentwood. E4 was the first unit to arrive on scene and reported light smoke showing before establishing incident command. Upon entry the fire was located in the front right corner of the house and quickly extinguished. The fire was contained to a chair in the room of origin and damage did not extend beyond the immediate area. After extinguishment, a Thermal Imaging Camera was utilized to check for extension. None was found. Crews began evacuating the smoke from the structure as well as vacuuming up the water to try and prevent further damage.

INAUGURAL PUBLIC SAFETY DAY FESTIVAL A SUCCESS



Saturday, October 15, 2011 marked yet another first for Brentwood Fire and Rescue. The department held its first annual Public Safety Day which was made a success due to a great turnout from the community. Both the Brentwood Fire and Police Departments participated, as well as Williamson County EMS. 

In case you missed it, now is your chance to catch up on some of the day’s activities. The city’s newest Engine and Ladder Truck were on display, as well as one of the original Fire Engines from when the department was founded in 1986. The Police had a patrol car and a D.A.R.E. vehicle on display, and EMS brought out an ambulance and their decontamination station for everyone to see. They also provided free CPR lessons.




 
Children were able to grab a fire hose and help firefighters extinguish mock flames on a roof before climbing a ladder to rescue stuffed pets stranded in a tree.




Members of BFR and Williamson EMS put on a live demonstration of vehicle extrication.


 
Sally the Fire Beagle helped everyone learn about Fire Safety.

 

Hydro the Fire Hydrant, seen here in front of BFR’s original pumper, was also a real crowd pleaser.



Another demonstration by BFR personnel showed the difference between a fire in a home with no fire sprinklers…




and one protected by sprinklers.



The Fire Safety House was present, helping children learn about Fire Safety in the Home.



In addition to the main event being held on Franklin RD, each of the City’s four Fire Stations were open for visits and station tours.

 



See you next year!
