Preparing For The Big One


The San Jose Fire Department is hosting a three day Santa Clara County Technical Rescue Drill at the BFO Campus training site. As many as 50 firefighters from neighboring departments will train each day. Attendees test their abilities to come together as mutual aid agencies and construct multiple emergency based shoring structures. This prepares for large scale disasters when such skills are required in complex and rescue operations. Participating agencies include; San Jose Fire Department, Santa Clara County Fire Department, Santa Clara City Fire Department, Palo Alto Fire Department, Milpitas Fire Department, and Moffett Field Fire Department.
