Uintah Fire Department Apparatus


The Uintah Fire Department serves a small but diverse and challenging community.  The city is fairly unique in its small size with two major railroad tracks running through it, and being bordered by an Interstate Highway, a State Highway, and a popular recreation river, not to mention rolling hillsides and brush filled rural areas.  To protect all of that, the city employs an Engine and two Specialized Brush Trucks.

Engine 91 is our first due engine and responds to all emergency calls within the city and mutual aid calls in surrounding cities.
