Hazardous Materials Response Team

Equipped to adequately handle Level I and Level II incidents.

Staffed by two State certified hazardous materials techs from each shift, the Department's Hazmat unit is equipped to adequately handle Level I and Level II incidents.

As a participant in the Northwest Arkansas Regional Hazmat response team program, the local effort at such an incident can be supplemented quickly with additional certified responders and specialized equipment. By using regional resources, a pool of quality responders is available to the community at a reduced shared support cost for a Level III incident which is beyond the local staffing and equipment capability.
