They responded to the Lehua Street brush fire, <br />a structure fire in Waipio Valley, and the O'okala brush fire. <br />• Hawai`i Fire Department Volunteers continue to show their dedication to the <br />department and community by taking care of their department vehicle repairs and <br />maintenance, both financially and with labor. This month Company 8 Alpha Pa'auilo <br />picked up shocks from the mechanic shop and changed them themselves. <br />Additionally, Company 14 Alpha Kohala is repairing the front end of their brush <br />truck. <br />• With the help of FASO Battalion Chief Hara, we were able to put a large order of <br />station boots in for the volunteers. This helps us get closer to being NFPA 1977 <br />compliant. Currently HFD Volunteers are issued used boots that career personnel <br />return or they buy their own. <br />• Company 1 Alpha, Pepe'ekeo, performed a service project for a community <br />resident. The resident, who is currently undergoing chemotherapy, needed <br />assistance with the removal of trees and other vegetation from her property. Brush <br />Truck 1 Alpha along with three personnel responded to assist with the recent <br />O'okala brush fire. <br />• Company 5 Charlie -Fern Forest, and Company 19 Alpha - Volcano, assisted with a <br />brush fire in the Fern Forest Subdivision. 5 Charlie also assisted with a brush fire in <br />the Eden Roc subdivision. <br />
