Grand Junction Fire Department Operations Division

The largest division within the Grand Junction Fire Department is the Operations Division, which is responsible for emergency medical services, fire suppression, mitigation of disasters, and rescue activities. Specialized units within the Operations Division include the Hazardous Materials Response Team, Confined Space Rescue, Rope Rescue, and Trench Rescue.

Responding to emergencies consumes a large portion of time. After the emergency response aspect, training consumes the next time commitment. Operations Division Personnel inspect commercial and multi-residential facilities. In addition members provide a wide range of services to the community, including tours of fire stations and apparatus, and fire and life safety presentations.
