Introduction

FIRE IN NEW JERSEY 2009 is a statistical analysis of fire and emergency incidents in New Jersey. The data collected and used in the formulation of this report comes from the fire departments throughout New Jersey that participate in the National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS). Fire service personnel enter incident data into their fire department computer- based NFIRS database and, on a monthly basis, submit their data to the Division of Fire Safety. The Division receives the fire department data, processes it into the State NFIRS database and forwards the data to the Federal NFIRS database.

NFIRS Background The Federal Fire Prevention and Control Act of 1974 (P.L. 93-948) authorized the National Fire Data Center in the United States Fire Administration (USFA) to gather and analyze information on the frequency, causes, spread, and extinguishment of fires; on the number, nature and causes of injuries and deaths resulting from fires and on property loss.

Fire Incident Reporting in New Jersey The data used in this report were provided by fire departments that participate in the NFIRS. The statutes that created the Division of Fire Safety call for the Division to administer a fire incident reporting system in accordance with N.J.S.A. 52:27D-25d.(d.). To encourage participation, the Division of Fire Safety provides reference materials, incident field notes, and training to fire departments. The incident data that fire departments submit to the Division is forwarded to the National Fire Data Center at the United States Fire Administration. The Division began implementation of NFIRS 5 in 1999 and all of the data used in this report is from NFIRS 5. NFIRS 5 is an all-incident based reporting system which captures the many different types of incidents to which fire departments respond. Please see pages 170 to 176 for a complete list of incident types.

Fire in NJ 2009 7 www.nj.gov/dca/dfs 7 REPORT CONTENTS The 2009 data presented in this report is representative of the incident data that was submit- ted to the Division of Fire Safety’s NFIRS Unit by May 17, 2010. Data received has been processed into the State and Federal databases. Please refer to pages 135 through 151 to see if your fire department has contributed to the information in this report.

Based upon incidents received, New Jersey fire departments responded 387,731 times to incidents in 2009. Data submission is broken down as follows:

Of the 733 fire departments in the state, 687 (93.7%) submitted data.

Note: 28 fire departments submitted less than six months of data. 46 fire departments did not submit any data.

The number of fire departments in the state differs from 2008 due to the closing of Camden County Division of Fire FDID 04281 in Camden County and the merging of two departments:

Burlington County: Chatsworth Fire Company FDID 03291 Woodland Fire & EMS Lebanon Lakes Volunteer Fire Company FDID 03292 FDID 03290

Data in this report does not include military installation fire department data. Military installation fire departments report directly to the Department of Defense.

All of the charts included in this report are based on 2009 totals unless otherwise specified.
