Delaware Area Response Team
In 1992 a joint cooperation effort by the Fire Chiefs' Association of Delaware County formed the Delaware Area Response Team (DART) which is the county’s hazardous materials response team. It is composed of Delaware County’s thirteen fire departments, Delaware County EMS, Delaware General Health Department, and The Delaware County Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management.
DART is broken down into eleven areas of responsibility to enable a scalable response depending upon the situation. DART holds monthly meetings to discuss hazmat issues, to conduct training, to plan for incidents, and to hold exercises.
