History

Medical calls are the biggest share. Rescues on the Appalachian Trail are long: the only way out is to hike in and carry the patient.

  1. 2022

    The Seth Warner Shelter moves two miles north, stretching a rescue there from 1½ to 4½ hours; the company sets up a tiered response with Southern Vermont search and rescue.

  2. 2023

    Trees felled by a 30-inch snowstorm damage the station. After the July floods, crews pump 10 basements around the clock for six days. A new truck is ordered, with a 650-day wait.

    86 calls that year

Stamford in Bennington County. Every fire station in the county is marked — 1 here, 22 in neighbouring towns, which is who turns out on a mutual aid call. Boundaries and water from VCGI; fire district lines are not town lines, and village districts and contracted coverage cross them. A town line runs out into the lake, so the shoreline here is the water drawn over the boundary, not the boundary itself.

Burning

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.

Not recorded yet

Nothing is written up here for joining, 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.
