Public Safety

To ensure you and your loved ones are as safe as possible, TRI employs professional police officers, aircraft rescue firefighters and emergency medical personnel, which are available 24/7. Our Public Safety Officers (PSO) are all state certified police officers, and all are certified as emergency medical responders both on the state and national level. The PSOs are also cross trained in aircraft rescue firefighting (ARFF). Several of our PSO’s have obtained advanced training such as advanced ARFF and the Airport Master Firefighter designation.  The Public Safety Officers receive monthly training in aircraft rescue firefighting. Law enforcement training is on-going throughout the year. Under FAA guidelines, a full scale disaster drill is held every three years that tests the Public Safety Department’s training, and provides the opportunity to train closely with mutual responding agencies.

The Public Safety Department has many types of emergency vehicles in their inventory.  Included is a fleet of all wheel drive police cruisers and all-terrain vehicles.  The Public Safety Department also utilizes two aircraft rescue fire engines which hold 1,500 gallons of water along with foam and dry chemical powder. Last but not least is the quick attack fire engine which is used for smaller fires, and doubles as a medical response vehicle.
