Travis’ firefighters are responsible for fighting multiple types of fires because of the size and nature of the Travis community. The crew must be ready to respond to situations in airplanes, homes and other facilities. Aircraft firefighting, structure fires, wildland blazes, petroleum/oil/lubricant situations, hazmat, confined-space rescue and emergency medical situations are all part of the Travis fire crew’s roster of responsibilities.
