Wondering how to celebrate Presidents Day? How about we start with something that protects your home and your loved ones in it.

Today, take a minute to test your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide alarms, if they aren't working replace them.

It’s a small act of responsibility that makes a big difference.

Who here has tested their alarms this year? Funny gif's only.

Shared from Roseburg Fire Department

The Roseburg Fire Department, in coordination Douglas County Emergency Management along with local, state, and regional agencies, will be conducting a multi-jurisdictional training exercise on February 10th in downtown Roseburg.

The exercise will simulate a train car hazardous materials (hazmat) incident and is designed to enhance inter-agency coordination, emergency response capabilities, and public safety preparedness. Residents and visitors may notice an increased presence of emergency vehicles, personnel in protective gear, and simulated response activities during the training period.

This is only a training exercise. There is no real emergency or hazardous materials threat to the public.

The purpose of this drill is to provide realistic, hands-on training for first responders in a controlled environment, ensuring they are prepared to respond effectively to complex incidents involving hazardous materials and multiple agencies.

Community members are asked to:
• Be aware of the exercise and not be alarmed by emergency activity
• Avoid the immediate training area
• Refrain from calling 9-1-1 regarding this simulated event unless there is a real emergency

Due to the nature of this training and very limited location capacity, the training will be closed to the public and media to ensure the realism of the training and the safety of personnel.

We appreciate the community’s understanding and support as we work together to strengthen emergency preparedness and response capabilities. For additional information, please contact the City of Roseburg Fire Department at 541-492-6770.
