Hazardous Materials Officer
Captain Richard Carroccino
The Hazardous Materials Division (Hazmat) consists of four major elements: identification and data collection, compliance and community education, training and preparation, and containment and mitigation. The Hazmat Division is conducted by one Captain (Hazmat Officer) who works closely with the Department's Training Officer and the City's Emergency Management Director. The primary mission of the Hazmat Division is to prevent loss of life and property as a result of the release of hazardous materials through comprehensive understanding of how hazardous materials are used, stored and transported, and how the Fire Department can limit the release of these materials and manage incidents where release does occur.
