The Belleville Middle Schoolalso fielded contestants forthis year’s event who bat-tled well in the early rounds.The inspiration for it wasthe original College Bowlwhich featured acompetition among schoolson academics instead ofsports.

The NJDFS F.I.R.E. Bowl testsstate middle school studentson their familiarity with firescience, with a few triviatype historical challengesthrown in for good measure.

“This is an excellentopportunity for ourstudents, and we are proudto be involved with NJDFS,”said Bayonne SchoolsSuperintendent Dr. PatriciaL. McGeehan.Superintendent McGeehan’scomments were echoed byState Fire Marshal Petrillo,who conceived the contestseveral years ago.

On May 13, 2008 the NewJersey Division of FireSafety F.I.R.E. Bowl ( FireInformation RescueEducation) kicked off for the3rd year running at theMidtown Community Schoolin Bayonne, The fire bowl isthe brainchild of State FireMarshal Lawrence Petrillo.

As with previous conteststhis year’s Bowl evoked allthe excitement of typicaltelevision game shows. Thegoal of the program is tocreate a notion of firesafety through this uniqueapproach for 7th and 8thgraders in middle schoolsthroughout the state. Thisyear the MidtownCommunity SchoolAuditorium was filled tocapacity as the challengepitted last year’s winnersfrom Midtown againstnewcomers Carteret MiddleSchool . The early roundswere a heated display of firesafety knowledge from both

“This is what it’s all about,teaching fire safety educationin a unique way,” he said.

The heavily favored BayonneMiddle School finally prevailedhaving benefited from priorF.I.R.E. Bowl contests, a factoraccording to Captain RobertMagella, of the Carteret FireDepartment that will onlystrengthen their resolve fornext year’s go-round

“We’ll be back!” said Magella.

The event was emceed by localMy9 news anchor HarryMartin, News Anchor for thepopular local newscast, whoannually donates his time andeffort to hosting the student“game show.”

The New Jersey Division ofFire Safety hosted aconference aimed at childcare professionals incooperation with BICCorpora-tion, attheMiddle-sex FireAcademy.Theaudito-rium wasfilled tocapacityas theStateFireMarshalbid a welcome to theparticipants to this first-of-its-kind NJDFS session.

Fire Marshal Petrillo viewedthe gathering as an importantway to reach child careprofessionals in the state withfirst hand with an importantupdates regarding fire safetybehavior modification tech-niques for educators and childcare givers alike.

“Part of any fire safetyequation that includes seniors

at one end, must include the veryyoung at the other. This effortstresses the idea that there is noage rating on fire safety informa-tion.” said

Conference Coordinator CharlesLuxton in explaining the need forthe conference and the largeresponse it received from childcare representatives here. Dr.Robert Cole, President of Part-nerships for Injury Preven-tion took attendees through abrisk Power Point focusing onkey aspects of behavioralchange.

According to Dr. Cole that turnson some key issues likesusceptibility and serenity, theidea of an event occurring thatwould endanger an individual,followed quickly by what benefits.

Further, whether to change ornot, influenced by whatevercues to action there may be,more specifically what itwould require to change a

specific behavior.

Audienceparticipation grew asaudience membersshared experienceswith the smokinghabit. Once a widelyaccepted behavior, itis now shunned by achanging social normtoward healthconsciousness.

Dr. Cole used thatexample as one way behaviorscan be influencedtremendously by socialnorms, and so perhaps thetendency of youngsters not tosee the consequences ofself–threatening activitiessuch as playing with toylighters and not recognizingthe array of consequences.Reached young enough Dr.Cole contends, a pre-schoolerwould be susceptible tobehavior modificationtechniques that might lead tomore socially acceptablenorms.

Matt Mattia of FEMA Region 2got the attention ofconference participants fillingDowns Hall on campus with apresentation that showedwhat a Katrina-like stormcould do to in the NY-NJMetropolitan Area. Mattia, aKatrina veteran, noted thepotential damage to areas ofOcean County with aKatrina-like event, such assuffered in areas along theMississippi coastline, thatmight similarly affect munici-palities such as Lakehurst, anequivalent 15 miles inlandfrom the Atlantic Ocean.

NJDFS FIRE FOCUS

The New Jersey State FireMarshal’s Arson/K-9 Unit hasbeen quite busy during the firsteight months of 2008. As ofthe end of August the unit hasconducted 168 fire investiga-tions throughout the state. Thethree Accelerant DetectionK-9s assigned to the unit have

been utilized in 59 fire investigations to date and have identifiedthe presence of ignitable liquids in amajority of those cases, indicating theprobability of those fires beingstarted by arsonists. To date, the unithas investigated twice as many arsonfires as accidental fires. This trendappears to be mainly as a result ofrevenge, crime concealment andvandalism motives, but with thehousing market continuing in a down-ward spiral, it is projected that morearson fires with the motive ofinsurance fraud will be observed.

The unit continues to work closely with its investigative partnersfrom the State Police Arson/Bomb Unit, the BATF, countyprosecutors offices, county fire marshals and local lawenforcement and fire service agencies.

This year saw unit members teaching as part of the NJ Divisionof Criminal Justice’s “Basic Course for Arson Investigators”regarding the use of accelerant detection K-9s in fire/arsoninvestigations at the DCJ Academy in Sea Girt, MonmouthCounty. The K-9 training module is now a permanent part of thecourse curriculum.

FROM THE NJDFS ARSON UNIT CASE FILE…

A fatal fire that killed a teenaged occupant. The fire was ruled tobe arson and Investigator Meyer and his K-9 partner Tazconducted a search for ignitable liquids. The fire is still underinvestigation by the NJ State Fire Marshals Arson/K-9 Unit andcounty and local law enforcement authorities.

A fire in Burlington County that claimed three lives in asingle-family dwelling and was investigated by Investigators

Meyer, Spiecker and Letts. The fire was believed to have beenset using ignitable liquids. A fire in Union County that occurredin a large occupied 165’ x 206’ one story commercial structureand was investigated by the county’s Arson Task Force, the BATFand Investigator Silver. The fire was classified as undeterminedwith a very high probability of a lighting strike as the cause ofthe fire. Due to the size of this structure, the sceneinvestigation was conducted over the course of three days.

Fire investigated by Investigator Letts in conjunction with aCounty Prosecutor’s Office and the County Fire Marshal’s Officethat occurred at a Boy Scout Camp. The fire was caused by

several boy scouts playingwith matches and isopropylrubbing alcohol. Threescouts were burned as aresult of this incident andone of the scouts later diedas a result of his injuries. Afire that occurred inAtlantic County in a verylarge one-storyrestaurant/bar that wasinvestigated by Investiga-tors Letts and Meyer along

with the County Prosecutor’s Office and the local policedepartment. The building sustained very heavy fire damage andthe fire remains under investigation. A fire that occurred inHudson County and investigated by Investigators Letts andSilver in a dethatched garage which was illegally converted intoa single family residential structure. The fire resulted in burninjuries to three individuals, two of whom had life threateningburns and were flown to St. Barnabas Hospital in Livingston. Thefire remains under investigation.

Additionally, the Sussex County Prosecutors Office has reportedthat a volunteer firefighter from Sussex County has plead guiltyto setting six fires that Arson Unit Supervisor Eckert and Inves-tigator Silver and his K-9 Scout investigated in 2006 inconjunction with the NJ State Police Arson/Bomb Unit and theSussex County Prosecutors Office. The individual was sentencedto six years in prison but credited with two years served.

The 2007-2008 New JerseyDivision of Fire SafetyAnnual Poster Contest drewentrants from across thestate for this year’s themePractice Your Family EscapePlan. A family escape plan isacademic say fire safetyexperts and involves aconscious effort to devise,develop, and deploy a plan inindividual dwellings toescape from a fire in a calmand orderly fashion, and todesignate a specific outdoorrendezvous point toassemble afterward. Itseems such a simple equa-tion, but too many timesvictims of fatal fires arethose who return to a burn-ing structure after a suc-cessful escape to seek aloved one, who quite proba-bly escaped as well but justcannot be seen.

During the recent past, the New Jersey Department of Labor andWorkforce Development (LWD) Office of Public EmployeesOccupational Safety and Health (OPEOSH) has been experiencingan increase in the number of complaints regarding whatfirefighters have come to refer to as the "two in two out"regulation. Based on the rise in complaints, Commissioner ofLabor and Workforce Development, David Socolow felt that itwould be prudent to issue a reminder and a reiteration of the"two in two out" specific requirements. The New Jersey LWD,OPEOSH enforces the provisions of the State adopted Federalregulations as contained in 29CFR. 1910.134 part (g)(3) and (g)(4)for interior structural firefighting activities.

The standard requires employers to follow the procedures forfirefighters who enter into immediately dangerous to life andhealth (IDLH) environments when conducting interior structuralfire fighting activities. The standard states that:

" two firefighters must be stationed outside the IDLHatmosphere and must be in communication (visual, voice,signal line) with the two firefighters inside the structure.”

These firefighters must also be trained and equipped to provideemergency rescue if required to do so.The firefighters outside the IDLH must also be supplied withpressure demand or other positive pressure SCBAs, or apressure demand or other positive pressure supplied-airrespirator with auxiliary SCBA; and either; appropriateretrieval equipment for removing the employee(s) who entersthese hazardous atmospheres where retrieval equipment wouldcontribute to the rescue of the employee(s) and would notincrease the overall risk resulting from entry; or equivalentmeans for rescue where retrieval is not required underparagraph (g)(3)(vi) [B] of the standard.

One of the two individuals located outside the IDLH atmospheremay be assigned to an additional role, such as incidentcommander in charge of the emergency or safety officer, solong as this individual is able to perform assistance or rescueactivities without jeopardizing the safety or health of anyfirefighter working at the incident". The standard also requiresthat the two firefighters who enter the IDLH atmosphere mustremain in visual or voice contact with one another and must useSCBA's while in the IDLH environment.

Fire Departments may designate a FAST (Firefighter Assist andSearch Team) to comply with the two out provision and mayalso designate a mutual aid squad to provide this service as longas all of the above provisions are adhered to. Nothing in thestandard precludes firefighters from performing emergencyrescue activities before an entire team can be assembled.Information concerning the provisions of the respiratorystandard can be found at www.Osha.gov under the standardssection or you can contact the Office of Public EmployeesOccupational Safety and Health at (609) 633-3896.
