We had a great time training with Daleville Department of Public Safety and Goodman Volunteer Fire Department in the confined space trailer provided by the Alabama Fire College.

This is a great tool to put firefighters in a maze with small spaces and gives them the chance to strengthen their senses and problem solving to get through the maze with full gear in a dark room filled with smoke.

We had a great training night on Monday with members from our department and Goodman Volunteer Fire Department.

We trained our new members and continued training with current firefighters on the use of SCBA (self contained breathing apparatus), ladder rescue, search and rescue, and recovery in a two or more story structure fire.

It was a great opportunity to use our new training Dummy and smoke machine that we recently acquired with a grant from Thrift Shop at Fort Rucker.

The City of Enterprise Fire Department will begin its annual fire hydrant residual testing soon, weather permitting. This important testing ensures that fire hydrants are operating properly and that the water system can provide adequate volume to help protect homes and businesses.

Approximately 280 hydrants across the city will be tested. Fire crews expect to test 10 to 15 hydrants per day, and the testing could take up to six weeks to complete. Testing is conducted by shift, with each shift continuing where the previous one left off to maintain efficiency and safety.

“The annual hydrant testing is an important part of our training and preparedness,” said Fire Chief Christopher Davis. “It allows our firefighters to make sure equipment is working properly while also giving them hands-on experience. This testing ensures each hydrant can deliver the proper water pressure if there is a fire. We are also very mindful of our residents and take steps to complete the testing efficiently, limiting any impact to homes and businesses.”

During testing, residents may notice temporary changes to their water service, including brief fluctuations in pressure or a temporary orange or rusty tint. These effects are temporary and occur as the normal sediment in the water system is distributed.

“The water remains safe for normal use, including drinking and bathing, and residents do not need to boil it,” Davis added. “If laundry or other water use becomes discolored during testing, we advise running cold water until it clears. Residents may also consider running water from an outside faucet to help flush the system. These steps should help minimize any inconvenience.”

Fire Department personnel take additional precautions to minimize impacts to surrounding properties. Crews monitor water runoff, remain aware of downhill flow, and work to avoid flooding yards, driveways, or nearby structures. The City of Enterprise Fire Department appreciates the public’s patience and cooperation as this necessary annual testing is completed.

We want to give a big thanks to Thrift Shop at Fort Rucker for the grant that made us able to get a new smoke machine and 2 new training dummy’s. The smoke machine will help us simulate being in a house fire and the mechanics involving smoke without having to use actual fire. The dummy’s will be used to simulate down firefighters and civilian casualties in emergency situations.

This grant was applied for and approved before our brush truck breaking down. We will be making an announcement soon on the progress of our fundraising for the brush truck and where it is at in the repair process.

Again thank you Fort Rucker Thrift store for your continued support! We look forward to getting to use these tools in future training for years to come!
