Louisville Division of Fire
The Louisville Division of Fire, commonly known as Louisville Fire Department or Louisville Fire & Rescue (abbreviated LFD or LFR), is the sole fire suppression agency for the former city of Louisville, Kentucky and comprises one of twenty fire departments within Louisville-Jefferson County, Kentucky. From 1996 to 2005, LFR also provided emergency medical services. EMS is now provided by Louisville Metro EMS however LFR still provides first-response medical care. Today LFR is the largest fire department in Metro Louisville in terms of equipment and manpower though not in geographical area served. Louisville Fire Department annually responds to around 50,000 calls.
The name Louisville Division of Fire is technically an anachronism. Since the merger of Louisville and Jefferson County governments all public services are organized as departments rather than divisions. However, since the merge did not combine the fire departments, LFR has continued to use the same name.
The current Fire Chief is Colonel Gregory Frederick.
LFR is known to be the second-oldest, all-career personnel fire department in the United States and, until January 10th, 2009, had the oldest operating firehouse in America (Engine Co. 7, in use since 1871 without relocation or rebuild). Engine 7 was decommissioned and the station closed in an attempt by the mayor to recuperate money in the Metro's projected budget deficit. The fire station is a registered historical landmark and will not be demolished but it's future use is uncertain. The station's closure sparked protest from both within the fire service and the public at large.
LFR operates 19 engine companies, 8 truck companies, and 2 rescue companies from 21 stations. Rescue 2 at Engine 2/Truck 1 provides high angle and dive rescue, while Rescue 11 at Engine 11/Truck 7 provides trench/collapse rescue. LFR makes use of quad and quint apparatus as engine's in their own first-alarm districts but classifies them as ladder (truck) companies. The Telesqurts and Squrt are all considered engine companies by departmental parlance. Curiously, Telesqurt Co. 9 is so named although it is not a Telesqurt, which is a proprietary brand-name, but an engine company with a 75-foot telescoping aerial ladder.
