SOUTH PEND OREILLE FIRE AND RESCUE

» South Pend Oreille Fire and Rescue Service Area

South Pend Oreille Fire and Rescue serves an area in south Pend Oreille County covering an area of 149 square miles.

The area is served from 5 fire stations and a roster of nearly 70 volunteers. These volunteers serve the area with training in Structural and Wildland fire fighting, EMS, hazmat response and vehicle extrication. Our roster includes 36 certified EMS personnel that provide primarily Basic life support response. All of our Firefighters are trained in advanced first aid and CPR qualified.

The area we serve is mostly rural in nature and offers occasional challenge in access and travel times. Our average response time for all calls in the first quarter for 2009 was 12 minutes. The volunteers train 2-3 times per month to maintain their skills in our profession.

South Pend Oreille Fire and Rescue was recently created by voter approved mergers of Pend Oreille Fire District No. 3, Pend Oreille Fire District No. 1 and Pend Oreille Fire District No. 7. The merger has been an effective addition to the service to our community and we offer a higher level of service than we have experienced in the recent past.
