The department may be unofficially referred to as the Los Angeles City Fire Department or "LA City Fire" to distinguish it from the Los Angeles County Fire Department which serves the county and whose name may directly confuse people, as the county seat is the city. Another possible reason is that the city and the unincorporated County are often bordering each other and thus the two appear to be serving the same area. The department is currently under the command of chief Ralph Terrazas. HistoryThe Los Angeles Fire Department has it origins in the year 1871.[7][8][9] In September of that year, George M. Fall, the County Clerk for Los Angeles County organized Engine Company No. 1. It was a volunteer firefighting force with an Amoskeag fire engine and a hose jumper (cart). The equipment was hand-drawn to fires. In the spring of 1874, the fire company asked the Los Angeles City Council to purchase horses to pull the engine. The Council refused and the fire company disbanded.[10] Many of the former members of Engine Company No. 1 reorganized under the name of Thirty-Eights No. 1 in May 1875, Engine Co. No. 2 was organized under the name Confidence Engine Company.[10] Los Angeles acquired its first "hook and ladder" truck for the Thirty-Eights. It proved to be too cumbersome and was ill-adapted to the needs of the city. It was sold to the city of Wilmington. In 1876, another "hook and ladder" truck was purchased, serving in the city until 1881.[10] In 1878, a third fire company was formed by the residents in the neighborhood of Sixth Street and Park. It was given the name of "Park Hose Co. No. 1". East Los Angeles formed a hose company named "East Los Angeles Hose Co. No. 2" five years later. The final volunteer company was formed in the fall of 1883 in the Morris Vineyard area. This company was called "Morris Vineyard Hose Co. No.3."[10] All of these companies remained in service until February 1, 1886, when the present paid fire department came into existence.[10] In 1877, the first horses were bought for the city fire department. The department would continue to use horses for its equipment for almost fifty years, phasing out the last horse drawn equipment on July 19, 1921.[11] By 1900, the Department had grown to 18 fire stations with 123 full-time paid firefighters and 80 fire horses.[11] The city had also installed 194 fire-alarm boxes allowing citizens to sound the alarm if a fire was spotted. 660 fire hydrants were placed throughout the city, giving firefighters access to a reliable water source.[12] In 1955 Station 78 in Studio City became the first racially integrated station in the department.[13] Types of apparatusThe department utilizes a wide array of apparatus and equipment. these are most but not all of the apparatus. Triple Combination EnginesThe triple combination Fire Engine or “TRIPLE” (as it is commonly called) is the most common type of firefighting apparatus in Los Angeles. The term “triple combination” refers to the apparatus having three components; water tank, high capacity water pump, and hose. The triple can be found as a one-piece engine company or as two engines assigned to a Task Force station. The “Triples” used by the LAFD have several parallel main pumps of varying capacities; 1,000 gpm, 1250 gpm, 1500 gpm,and 2000 gpm at 150 psi. Depending upon the area served, this apparatus may carry a combination of any or all of the following sizes of hose; 3 1/2″, 2 1/2″, 1 3/4″, 1 1/2″ and 1″. The water tank carrying capacity ranges from 300 gallons to 500 gallons. These apparatus are staffed by four members, including a Captain 1 as the company commander. A number of triples in the LAFD are also Paramedic assessment companies – meaning they include a Paramedic as part of the crew. Light Forces and Task ForcesThe LAFD uses the concept of Light Forces and Task Forces which can be considered one "Resource", although comprising more than one unit or company.[14] A Light Force is composed of a Pump Engine (200 Series, for example Engine 201 or Engine 301 for 100 stations)and a Ladder Truck.[15] Light forces will almost always respond together as one unit or resource.[14] A Task Force is simply a Light Force coupled with an Engine. An Engine is considered a single unit or "resource" when responding to incidents on its own.[15] A Task Force usually responds to larger incidents, such as structural fires, and is made up of an Engine, a 200 Series Pump Engine, and a Truck, all operating together. While a standard Engine is always staffed with a full crew, a 200 Series Pump Engine is only staffed by a driver (and one other firefighter if responding as part of a Task Force). The purpose of the 200 Series Pump Engine is to provide support and equipment to the Truck in a Light Force, and either the Truck or the Engine in a Task Force.[14] Rescue AmbulancesRescue Ambulances (RAs), often called 'rescues' for short, can be considered either advanced life support (ALS), or basic life support (BLS). Ambulances number 1-112 are frontline ALS staffed by 2 firefighter / paramedics, while those in the 200 series are ALS reserves.[16] Ambulances in the 800s are BLS staffed by 2 firefighter EMT's, while those in the 900s are BLS reserves.[16] HelicoptersThe Air Operations division of the LAFD operates out of Fire Station 114 at Van Nuys Airport. The division has six helicopters available for both aerial firefighting and air medical services. Copter 1 and Copter 4 are both Bell 412s.[17][18] Copter 2, Copter 3 and Copter 5 are all AgustaWestland AW139s.[19][20][21] The final helicopter, Copter 6, is a Bell 206B.[22] Fireboats{{Further2|Warner L. Lawrence}}The Port of Los Angeles is under the jurisdiction of the LAFD which operates 5 fireboats to provide fire protection for ships and dockside structures.[23] Fireboat 1, Fireboat 3 and Fireboat 5 are identical {{convert|39|ft|m|adj=on}} long aluminum fireboats capable of a top speed of {{convert|29|kn|mph km/h}} while fully loaded.[24] They are equipped with a {{convert|2400|USgal/min|L/min|abbr=on}} pump and a {{convert|1000|USgal/min|L/min|abbr=on}} deluge gun.[24] They also have a {{convert|50|USgal|L|adj=on}} firefighting foam capacity. Fireboat 4, also known as the Bethel F. Gifford, was commissioned in 1962 and is the oldest of the fleet. It is capable of pumping water at {{convert|9000|USgal/min|L/min|abbr=on}} and carries {{convert|550|USgal|L|0}} of foam solution for petrochemical fires.[25] It is equipped with jet-stream nozzles to allow for increased maneuverability.[25]The newest and most technologically advanced of the fireboats is the {{convert|105|ft|m|0|adj=on}} long Fireboat 2, also known as the Warner Lawrence, which has the capability to pump up to {{convert|38000|USgal/min|L/min}} up to {{convert|400|ft|m}} in the air.[26] Boat 2 also has an onboard area for treatment and care of rescued persons.[27] USAR Task Force 1{{main|Urban Search and Rescue California Task Force 1}}The Los Angeles Fire Department is the founding member of one of California's eight FEMA Urban Search and Rescue Task Forces.[28] California Task Force 1 (CA-TF1) is available to respond to natural or man-made disasters around the county and world and assist with search and rescue, medical support, damage assessment and communications.[29] Stations and apparatusThe LAFD is divided into four operations divisions: The central bureau, and West bureau, and South bureau (formerly South division), and the valley Bureau (formerly north division). Each bureau is commanded by an Assistant Chief, who in turn commands a total of 3 Battalions, with the valley bureau having 5, with each battalion led by a battalion chief.[30] The Los Angeles Fire Department currently operates 106 Fire Stations, organized into 14 Battalions The central bureau comprises 3 battalions and approximately 21 fire stations with its headquarters station 3.[31] The west and South bureaus are similar, the valley Bureau is the exception comprising 5 battalions.[31] Below is a list of the apparatus and stations of the LAFD.[32] The valley bureau has battalions 10, 12, 14, 15 and 17.[33] The west bureau has battalions 4, 5 and 9.[34] The central bureau has battalions 1, 2, and 11.[35] The south bureau has battalions 6, 13 and 18.[36] Note that stations with both a truck and a 200 series engine (pumper) will usually respond the two apparatus together as a lightforce. So, for example, Truck 1 and Engine 201 will often respond together as Light Force 1.[15]
In pop cultureThe LAFD has been featured in many TV shows and movies. Sometimes the LAFD or LAFD equipment is just seen in the background.
