The Bethel Board of Selectman has signed off on fund for items for Stony Hill and Bethel Fire Departments.  All of the money would come from the Capital Non-Recurring Account.  $15,672 would be used for 12 replacement SCBA bottles for Stony Hill.  Nearly $4,000 would be used to replace tires on Rescue 2.  Funding was also approved for two 3M Scott Sight Masks for a pilot program for both Stony Hill and Bethel Fire.  Initially the Fire Commission was going to seek funding for 12 masks, 6 for each fire company, but they decided to do a pilot program with one each to see how firefighters like the masks.  This is the next evolution of the industry’s first in-mask, hands-free thermal imaging technology.
