As part of their resources, the Department maintains specialized teams capable of providing emergency assistance in unusual situations.  Because of an increasing number of situations, a Hazardous Materials team was organized inside the Department in 1988.  Highly trained specialists comprise this group, which is capable of supporting emergency operations in many situations that involve hazardous or toxic substances.  The Haz-Mat team now consists of 13 members and the most up-to-date equipment.  In 1998, a Specialized Rescue and Confined Space Team was formed to provide additional capabilities in challenging rescue situations.  Presently, the department has ten specially trained members that provide support to the Department operation.  We are very proud of the fire department's incident investigators team and currently have nine highly trained members that are certified by the State Fire Marshall.  Our public education committee members have been teaching life safety throughout the Village and schools for over 20 years.  Our school program, that is taught to kindergarten through sixth grade by the department's firefighter/paramedics, has been highly successful and is considered to be one of the finest programs in the northwest suburbs.
