Controlled Burn - Batavia - Monday - September 11th, 2006

The Town of Batavia Fire Department under the direction of Chief Paul Dibble conducted a controlled burn on Monday night September 11th.  The object of the burn was a barn on Pearl St. in the Town of Batavia. Approximately 1800' of LDH supply line was laid with a pumper at the hydrant  and one half way to the scene.  The long LDH line was laid so traffic on Pearl St. ( Rout 33 ) would not be interrupted.  The Towns Platform was set up to protect the house that was about 150' away from the barn.  Story and Photos provided by Jay Lynch.
