Union has placed Squad 1 into service with a 2024 Pierce Enforcer/PUC model 1500-gpm/300-gwt rescue-pumper. The cab has five seats and storage space. Features include scene lights, a light tower, two cross-lay beds and transverse compartment for tools, high point anchors, swing-out tool board, roll-out tool trays, plus a 20 kW generator. In addition, it has a front bumper mounted 6000-lb winch plus a 9000- portable winch with a total of 11 receivers. It carries extrication tools, air bags and shoring equipment. The Union F.D. is now using station numbers. The new rig is assigned to Headquarters, Station 1, replacing the Squad 4 number on previous rigs. It was sold by Fire & Safety Services.
