June 29, 2009- Right around 09:30 Pottsville City Fire was dispatched to 500 East Market Street, Pottsville City, on a possbile house fire. As city units were going responding they were advised of a second call back, stating that there was smoke visible coming from the house. Incident command P-6, arrived on scene and upgraded the box to a working house fire, and asked for the Schuylkill Haven RIT to be dispatched to the scene. So at 09:38 the RIT was sent to assist Pottsville with Chief 723, Engine 737 and Squad 739 responding with 11 members. However, once everyone from Haven arrived on scene the bulk of the fire had already been knocked down and units were already performing overhaul operations. So only after about 15 minutes of being on location everyone from Schuylkill Haven Boro was placed clear and available.
