Coba Research Institute  has many different divisions.. Our main division is research and development.  C.R.I also holds seminars on different topics such ans law enforcement training, and advanced military tactics.

Firelands R.F.D. Station 78 is responsible for HAZMAT Ops, awareness, safety, and emergency response as needed.

Mutual aid to West Metro

We were called to Billionaire Estates last night for an apartment building fire:

Aircraft crash at the Firelands Intercontinental Airport

Firelands RFD: AARF 366 on scene of an aircraft crash at the airport in Diafall. Repeat, aircraft crash in Diafall. 3820 and 3800 out at station 36 reporting heavy smoke and flame visible from the station. Firecom clear at 537 SLT

Pardon our dust while we do some rearranging. Yes, the District has decreased in size. Yes, we have lost some members. But, with your help I fully intend to help restore it to what it was six months ago. With Chief Laville's help and support we hope to bring back what once was.

Site updates:
The district membership page & station lists have obviously changed. We have reduced to the following stations:
36 - Firelands Airport
38,- Foresta Marina
39 - Alvensleben Marina
78 - The Coba Research Institute Hazardous Materials Response Team
79 - The Second Life International Airport

38 & 39 have been dramatically reduced in size and are more equipped like the rural stations they are. An engine, brush unit, Chief's car, and a rescue each. 38 will still host the fire boat as well. Additional equipment will be placed in rezzers but honestly shouldn't be needed with the possible exception of a backup engine or tanker.

39's station has been bulldozed and the replacement is located in the township garage underneath the Alien Disco Lounge. This allows Chief Laville more rent-able land at the marina which should help with her current financial strain.

Former members: anyone interested in helping us rebuild the District please contact Cale Solo directly.

Thank you!

Edited 06-MARCH-2015:

At the request of several former members the district will remain but in a reduced capacity. Thank you to Cale Solo for offering to step in and try to revive interest in the district. I wish you the best of luck in trying to drum up new membership.

I'd like to say thank you to everyone for trying and sticking it out. Unfortunately, good intentions just aren't enough. The district has fallen apart. Those of us left  just don't seem to be enough to hold it together anymore. So, before friendships are lost we will say goodnight.

Firelands Rural Fire District has closed the bay doors for the final time. The apparatus cleaned and put to rest. Bunkers hung up and uniforms tucked away in the closet. And the Chief hangs up her helmet.
