Meet Norwalk's New Fire Boat !
October 11, 2012 Norwalk recently received a $ 600,000 Critical Infrastructure Grant Award under the Federal Emergency Management Agency's Port Security Program and used a portion of the award to purchase a 42 foot high tech fire boat. The program provides resources for coastal communities to develop their capabilities to respond with other agencies to marine emergencies in their local jurisdictions and in Long Island Sound. The aluminum boat, which was constructed by the Almar division of North River Boats in Roseburg Oregon, was delivered to Norwalk Cove Marina yesterday. North River personnel were familiarizing Norwalk Fire staff on the complex systems today before handing over the boat. Additional information and specifications will be forthcoming !
