On June 11th, 2025, at 14:46 Keystone Valley Fire Department was dispatched for the Rescue and Tanker to assist the Bart Township Fire Company in the 900 block of Vintage Road in Bart Township for a working building fire.
Bart Township Fire Company units were on the scene of a large commercial building with fire showing from the roof line. Due to limited water sources in the area a tanker task force was requested to the scene to help extinguish the fire. Bart Township Fire Company officers held the command for this incident. As additional resources arrived, they we were given their assignments by the commander.
Crews from Rescue 8 were tasked with assisting with fire suppression, salvage and overhaul operations. Tanker 8's crew was assigned with shuttling water from the fill site to the fire scene. Crews were met with difficult conditions due to the multiple additions added onto the original building.
All Keystone Valley Fire Department units were clear from the scene at 17:29.
