- About Me:
- I am on a very small rural department in Illinois along the Mississippi river. We cover about 45 square miles and 9 miles of the river. We have approximately 1500 people in our district. But, we have very large industry. For starters, an Exelon nuclear power plant, a large anhydrous ammonia storage facility, a natural gas power plant, a NHRA dragstrip, 3M chemical plant, a molasses plant, a natural gasoline storage facility, a wood processing facility, two gas stations and a bar. We actually have more employees that work in our district, than live there. In Cordova we are fortunate that the nuclear plant has a burn tower and training facility. They are very good about letting us use this at almost anytime we desire. Some of our surrounding departments use this as well.
- Day Job:

- Wear your seatbelts!!
Are we not getting enough training? Or are we not getting enough QUALITY training?
- I Love Being in Fire/EMS Because:
- There is no other job like it.
