Stations 29 and 1-5 were alerted for an outside fire on the 800 Block of Port Penn Road Saturday evening the 22nd of February. This would be the second outside fire on this stretch of road this date. Tanker 29 made the response along with 29-1 and arrived to find a large area burning well off the roadway spreading to a nearby patch of woods. Due to our mutual aid agreement with Delaware City Fire Company they responded immediately with Gator 1-5 and Squad 1-5 as well bringing extra man power and units to assist. Command requested 2 additional brush units bringing Odessa and Middletown Fire Companies to assist. Units worked on scene for just over an hour and a half controlling the fire spread and brining the scene under control.
