About Airport

 

 

ARFF 198
The first ARFF unit responsible for the airport was this
1996 AM General Hummer 4x4 / Fire Attacker Crash truck
with a 300 gpm pump & roll pump and 200 gal foam mix tank.
It also had 450 lbs of PKP.
The unit was housed at the Provincetown Fire Department
as Engine 198 until being renumbered Foam 199 in 2007

The vehicle was moved to a new building at the airport
around 2006. The apparatus had mechanical problems and was
finally taken out of service around 2009.
