Hazleton Tanker Base 2019

Good afternoon once again!

It's time for the fire season here in Hazleton, PA...


I think?! A wonderful thing to find in the morning here. This is the result of our tank overfilling and the water splashing onto everything in these wonderful "spring" temperatures! It's okay though, none of our plumbing was harmed and the tank is ready to go!

Tanker 865 is coming onto contract tomorrow (3/30/2019). The pilot and plane arrived here safely late Tuesday (03/26/2019) evening. Just look at this wonderful piece of machinery all ready to go and help our firefighters this season!


We have our new mix tank all set up and ready to go as well. All the plumbing is in order. We are excited to get another season under way!
