Officers
As in all fire departments and para-military organizations the
department is built around the nation's adopted Incident
Management System (IMS). The department is overseen by it's
chief officers and then is broken down into various support
and company officers. This allows the
department to operate
within the chain of command and in a more organized manner.
On the county level, the department falls into Battalion 7 of
Dutchess County Emergency Response. Assigned to this battalion
as the battalion chief is county car 17, Steven VanBuren. The
battalion chief is responsible for acting as a liaison between
the county and departments in the battalion. |
