The new appliances were manufactured by Mills Tui Ltd in Rotorua. Each vehicle holds 5800 litres of water, along with associated discharge and portable pumps, and other firefighting gear. “They are excellent machines, brand new and will serve the Coast and the Gisborne community for many years to come,” said principal rural fire officer and Tolaga Bay fire chief Ray Dever. “Water availability for firefighting is a key requirement for our rural and other unreticulated communities like Wainui. “The Tolaga Bay-based vehicle will be an extremely valuable asset for the East Coast,” Mr Dever said. “It will also provide back-up for large fires up towards Tokomaru Bay and down in Gisborne.” The Gisborne appliance will be based at the city fire station. Mr Dever (right) and area fire commander Charlie Turei are pictured with the tankers outside Gisborne Fire Station.
