Monroe County is divided into 5 firefighting battalions, plus an Industrial battalion (7). Battalion 9 unit numbers are used for EMS units. The exception is the Henrietta FD, which is actually in the 5th Battalion but uses 6th Battalion unit numbers. Departments use 3- or 4-digit numbers depending on number of stations and local preference. Some departments are still not in total compliance with the numbering system.

Some areas of Monroe County have prearranged multiple alarm responses. The First Battalion has predesignated extra alarm responses for each fire district. The Third Battalion has preplans for multiple alarms to specific hazards such as shopping malls and nursing homes.

The County is now using digital communications. Alarms are sent to fire stations and officers via digital alphanumberic pagers. Fire companies and ambulances are also being equipped with mobile data terminals.

Voice transmission of alarms will still be needed because the vast majority of firefighters in Monroe County are volunteers and they need to receive the alarm via analog voice pager.

NORMAL NUMBERING FOR 3-DIGIT UNITS

  • 1st digit = Battalion
  • 2nd digit = Department
  • 3rd digit = Apparatus type (per table below)

NORMAL NUMBERING FOR 4-DIGIT UNITS

  • 1st digit = Battalion
  • 2nd digit = Department
  • 3rd digit = Station (most often), unit number.
  • 4th digit = Apparatus type (per table below)
