This evening, your firefighters trained on foam operations. Both of our engines and both of our tankers carry foam in the event that we need to utilize to provide a protective barrier to suppress vapors or to utilize on certain types of fires.

We even carry foam on our boat to utilize away from land for barrier suppression or boat / vessel fire suppression.

In the pictures below, you will see the two different methods that we have for foam application. One, we utilize foam from a 5 gallon pale with a foam eductor through our normal fire hose and nozzle with tube added to it and the second, we use a foam stick inside of a special nozzle. The second is what we carry on our boat.

This morning, your firefighters along with our response partners from Black Jack Fire Protection District and Christian Hospital EMS responded for a reported MVA with rollover on Hwy. 67 near the Clark Bridge.

Upon arrival, units found two vehicles involved with one of the vehicles overturned.

No patients were found at the scene. Units utilized thermal imaging cameras and performed a ground search of the area along with a drone to survey.

The Hwy was closed for approximately 2 hours performing the search, accident re-construction and clean up.

Mo. Hwy. Patrol, St. Charles County Police and Alton PD were on scene.

This past Thursday night, your firefighters trained on our vacuum tanker as well as our portable monitor.

The District has 2 vacuum tankers, one 3,000 gallon and one 3,500 gallon capacity. Both have an additional fire pump rated at 500 gpm. The portable monitors were purchased in 2025 partially funded by a grant and placed on each tanker.

As we all know the majority of our District does not have a hydrant system and these tankers are a valuable resource to get water on scene of a fire. These tankers can fill themselves in 3.5 minutes allowing a quick fill and turn around time to get back to a fire scene.
