Volunteers Serving Springfield Township
As part of the Firefighter II National Certification class, that members from Flourtown, Oreland, Barren Hill and Centre Square Fire companies have been attending over the past several weeks, one of the requirements is to attend the PECO training facility and work on extinguishing gas/propane fires. On Monday 6/22/15 they fulfilled this requirement.
At 12:47 PM on Monday, February 14 a crew working on installing a new water main in Weiss hit a 3 inch gas main. Squad 6 and Engine 6 responded and Fire Police shut down access to the street from both Bethlehem Pike and W. Mill Road. PECO soon arrived on the scene and clamped off the ruptured pipe.
