This week, we recognize the unseen heroes behind every call, our Dispatchers and Communicators.
During National Public Safety Communicators Week, the Deer Park Fire Department proudly honors those who are the calm in the chaos⦠the steady voice on the other end of the line⦠and the lifeline between our community and emergency responders.
From the first ring of the phone to the final unit clear, they are always there β 24/7 β guiding, supporting, and saving lives.
We are especially proud to have a few members within our department who serve as dispatchers professionally, bringing that same dedication, experience, and calm under pressure to both sides of the radio. π€π»π€π»
Thank you for your dedication, professionalism, and unwavering commitment to public safety.
On Thursday, the Deer Park Fire Department held its annual Department Elections.
We proudly congratulate our newly elected Chiefs:
β’ Chief of the Department: Robert Macaluso β’ 1st Assistant Chief: Vincent Jackson β’ 2nd Assistant Chief: Dominic Albanese β’ 3rd Assistant Chief: Kevin Heissenbuttel
(Pictured right to left)
We wish our Chiefs the very best in the year ahead as they continue to lead and serve our community with dedication and pride.
We want to extend a HUGE thank you to all of our incredible sponsors who stepped up and helped make this event possible. Your support goes a long way in helping Engine Company 3 continue serving our community with pride and dedication.
To everyone who came out and packed the room, thank you. The energy, the laughs, and the support made it an unforgettable night.
We appreciate each and every one of you. π
Stay tunedβ¦ weβll see you at the next one. π

On March 10th at 23:24, the Deer Park Fire Department was activated for a reported BBQ fire with an explosion.
Upon arrival, units determined that the homeowner had extinguished the fire; however, a continuous propane tank leak remained, creating a serious and potentially dangerous condition. Propane is highly flammable and can accumulate quickly, posing a significant risk of ignition or explosion.
Under the direction of Chief Robert Macaluso, crews worked to secure the area, eliminate ignition sources, and safely control the leaking tank. Due to the severity of the situation, the Town of Babylon Hazmat Team was requested to assist.
Units operating on scene included 1-4-30, 1-4-32, 1-4-5, 1-4-11, 1-4-10, 1-4-15, and 1-4-8.
The operation required careful monitoring and control of the propane leak to ensure the safety of both residents and responders.
Time of alarm was 23:24, and units were released at 1:56.
β οΈ Safety Reminder: As the weather gets nicer and more residents begin using BBQs and outdoor equipment, please take a moment to check your propane tanks, connections, and hoses for leaks or damage. If you ever smell gas, leave the area immediately and call 911, do not attempt to handle it yourself.
Your Deer Park Fire Department remains committed to protecting our community, day and night. π«Ά ... See MoreSee Less
