Plainfield Fire Department with a quick-moving brush fire on Lathrop
Road in their first due. ET-197 & F-197 responded on the run with

fire near the intersection of Norwich Road and Lathrop Road Ext.
ET-197 located a very small fire and had it controlled within minutes
before continuing onto the original assignment. The crew from
F-197 arrived and immediately went to work extinguishing fire in close
proximity to a residence. Personnel staffing ET-197 also began
knocking down fire while the apparatus chauffer shuttled loads of water
from the fill site to brush units on the fireground. Several other
mutual aid forestry apparatus and tankers were called to the scene
before the estimated 15 acre fire was brought under control.
Central Village units assisted on scene until 18:00 hours.
