Pownal Valley spends its town funds on operations, maintenance and the upkeep of its three stations, and teaches fire prevention at the elementary school. The Protective Association uses a UTV for rescues off Pownal's mountains.
The Protective Association's new truck arrives in February; it adds thermal imaging cameras and another AED, and wins grants for protective and wildland gear. Pownal Valley applies for Congressional project funding to replace its Center Station.
About 140 calls that year
The Protective Association makes training a top priority and hosts classes for departments across the area.
Vermont requires a Permit to Kindle Fire from the town’s Forest Fire Warden for anything larger than a campfire — except where snow covers the ground at the burn site, or the fire is at least 200 feet from anything that will carry flame. Wardens can suspend burning outright when fire danger is high. Who to ask locally is recorded department by department; where it is blank below, the fire department itself is the place to start.
Read in October 2026. Spotted something out of date? Tell us.
Nothing is written up here for burn permits, budget. Not because it does not exist — because nobody has typed it in. If you know this department, tell us and it goes on the record with its source named.
