In October, the Fire Marshals Association hosted a fire investigation vehicle “show and tell,” bringing member agencies together to share equipment, resources, and ideas.

The event gave members an opportunity to explore how other agencies equip their vehicles, discuss tools and capabilities, and identify opportunities to support one another during investigations.

Good luck, David!

This week, we said goodbye (for now!) to Fire Marshal David Schaffauer as he heads to Virginia for specialized K9 training. 🐾🚒

David will be spending the next several weeks gaining valuable training and experience before bringing home an additional Accelerant Detection K9 and a new four-legged co-worker for Suffolk County Fire Rescue and Emergency Services! 🐕‍🦺

We’re looking forward to welcoming them both back home in October and can’t wait to see all that this new partnership will bring to FRES and the communities we serve.
Good luck, FM Schaffauer — we’ll see you in October!

A potential tragedy averted.
The Town of Brookhaven has announced multiple code violations against the owners of a Stony Brook home that officials say was illegally converted from a 4-bedroom house into a 10-bedroom rental, creating dangerous living conditions for its occupants.
Following a July 2 fire, Town inspectors discovered numerous illegal bedrooms throughout the home, with 12 occupants and 18 mattresses, along with extensive unauthorized alterations that officials say put residents and first responders at serious risk.
Supervisor Dan Panico, Deputy Supervisor Neil Foley, and Chief Fire Marshal Chris Mehrman emphasized that the Town will continue to aggressively enforce fire and housing codes to protect public safety and hold property owners accountable.

This week, members of the Fire Marshals Association of Suffolk County joined New York State Fire Protection Specialists for a National Fire Academy Residential Sprinkler Plan review class.

Held at the Setauket Fire Department, agencies in attendance included the NYS Office of Fire Prevention and Control, Office of the Fire Marshal - County of Nassau, Smithtown Department of Public Safety, Town of Brookhaven, Town of Babylon, Town of Huntington, and more.

As residential fire sprinkler installations become more prevalent in our region, it is imperative we remain on top of emerging trends. We thank the National Fire Academy and Chief Roy Plume of State Fire for their efforts in organizing this class.
