Nichols Engine 301 and Squad 309 as well as Cars 2 and 4 responded from Nichols. In total, 3 fires were located and extinguished over an hour and a half.

Chemical Spill and Haz-Mat Response:Today at approximately 11:08 hours Nichols Fire Department with the assistance of Trumbull Center and Long Hill Fire Departments were requested to respond to an address on Merritt Boulevard for the reports of a chemical leak inside a commercial building. Upon arrival units met and discussed with building officials on the contents of the building and began developing a hazard assessment of what may be leaking and who may be at risk. With the report of the leak possibly being a corrosive acid, the Fairfield County Hazmat team was requested to deploy a response, and a safe zone was established around the effected area. For approximately 2 hours fire crews and agencies worked together to come up with a plan to assess and mitigate the hazard by safely entering the building and disconnecting power to specific effected units. This plan resulted in successfully stopping any more fluid from spilling and the incident was then under control. A decontamination area was set up outside the building for the members who entered the building incase they had any contaminated material on them. Trumbull EMS had a crew staged on scene throughout the incident with medical equipment incase any medical attention was needed to responders or civilians. The exact chemical and amount that was released remains unknown at this time, but there is no life hazard to the community or the employees of the business, and clean up crews were contacted to deal with the remainder of the leak and repair the effected equipment. The NFD would like to thank all agencies who responded and assisted with this incident, many of whom stop their regular jobs to respond on a volunteer or on call basis:Trumbull Volunteer Fire Company, No. 1, Inc.Long Hill Volunteer Fire Co. #1 IncTrumbull Emergency Medical Services (TEMS)Trumbull Police DepartmentFairfield County Hazardous Materials TeamTrumbull Fire Marshals Office ...

Early this morning at approximately 02:50 Nichols and Trumbull Center Fire Departments were alerted to reports of a single car rollover with entrapment. Upon arrival Rescue 300 noted a single pickup truck style vehicle on its drivers side with the occupant still inside. Crews quickly stabilized the vehicle using cribbing, rescue struts, and a “tie back” device. They then worked to remove the roof of the vehicle to extricate the patient. The patient was then turned into the hands of Trumbull EMS. Units were clear within 50 minutes.

The Nichols Fire Department has recently seen a very large increase of motor vehicle accidents, including some that are very serious. We would like to remind everyone to always wear your seatbelts when in a moving vehicle, and to always maintain the posted speed limits.

TRUMBULL, Conn.—The Nichols Fire Department has received a $2,997 fire prevention grant from FM Global, a major commercial property insurer.

FM Global representative Michael Spaziani notified Nichols Fire Chief Andrew Kingsbury that their grant application was selected among a pool of hundreds of applications received.  The award will be used to assist with pre-fire planning activities in an effort to efficiently collect and track data related to local community buildings.  The information will help first responders by displaying mapping and data when responding to an emergency situation.

Because fire continues to be the leading cause of property damage worldwide, during the past 40 years FM Global has contributed millions of dollars in fire prevention grants to fire service organizations around the globe. Locally, the company has awarded grants to a number of Connecticut-based organizations.

“At FM Global, we strongly believe the majority of property damage is preventable, not inevitable,” said Michael Spaziani, assistant vice president – manager of the fire prevention grant program. “Far too often, inadequate budgets prevent those organizations working to prevent fire from being as proactive as they would like to be. With additional financial support, grant recipients are actively helping to improve property risk in the communities they serve.”

Through its Fire Prevention Grant Program, FM Global awards grants to fire departments that best demonstrate a need for funding, where dollars can have the most impact on preventing fire, or mitigating the damage it can quickly cause.

Andrew Kingsbury
Raymond Franko

TRUMBULL, Conn.—The Nichols Fire Department announced on December 31st, 2020 that Fire Chief Andrew Kingsbury will be stepping down as Chief, and that Assistant Fire Chief Raymond Franko will be taking over the reins in January.  Deputy Chief John DelVento will remain as Deputy Chief and assist Chief Franko in the transition.

“I am proud of the accomplishments we have been able to achieve as a department” Kingsbury said. “The fleet was in pretty rough shape when I took over.  We have been able to replace our Aerial Ladder and Squad, complete a much needed training facility behind Fire Headquarters, and expand our bays at the Booth Hill Road station.  We are also ushering in a state of the art radio system.”  

“Asst Chief Franko does have a few challenges in front of him still” stated Kingsbury. “Our Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus need to be replaced in 2021, and we still have a front line pumper that will be 40 years old, that needs to be replaced as well.  I am confident that Chief Franko and his staff will be able to accomplish those goals and much more”.  

Chief Kingsbury has been Fire Chief in Nichols for the last 4 years, prior to that he was Fire Chief in Westport for 6 years where he spent 30 years as a career firefighter.  Like Kingsbury, Chief Franko has been in numerous leadership roles within the Nichols Fire Department, serving in most positions, he started with the department in 1986.  Chief Franko’s father was also a firefighter in Nichols, serving as a Lieutenant with the department. 

Fire Commission Chairman Patrick Freyer plans to swear-in Chief Franko during next Tuesday’s monthly meeting January 5th, 2021. “I am glad Asst. Chief Franko has accepted the challenge and I echo Chief Kingsbury’s confidence in his leadership. Chief Kingsbury looks forward to having some free time “ the Commissioner exclaimed. “I have a lot of home improvement projects to get caught up on” Kingsbury added. He will continue his duties as Deputy Emergency Management Director for the Town of Trumbull and teaching as an adjunct instructor for the Connecticut Fire Academy.

-- We hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday season
