It is the fifth largest fire and rescue service in the United Kingdom. Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service was founded on 1 April 2007, following the merger of Devon Fire and Rescue Service with Somerset Fire and Rescue Service.〔 The Somerset service, previously known as Somerset Fire Brigade, was formed on 1 April 1948. Devon Fire Brigade was formed in 1973, by the amalgamation of Exeter City Brigade, Plymouth City Brigade and Devon County Brigade. It became Devon Fire and Rescue Service in 1987. It is organised operationally into three commands: Central, Western and Somerset. The service's main headquarters is located at Clyst St George near Exeter. Its main training centre is the Service Training Centre (STC) at Plympton fire station. The service employs 2,300 staff, including 798 whole time firefighters and control room staff, 1,208 retained firefighters and 249 non-uniformed staff.〔http://www.dsfire.gov.uk/AboutUs/WhoWeAre.cfm?siteCategoryId=2&T1ID=9〕 Each county operated its own control room until 2012 but they now have a single control room at Service Headquarters, Exeter. As part of a national FiReControl project, Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue's control rooms were planned to switch to a regional control centre in Taunton but the plan was scrapped entirely in December 2010 by the Government.〔 ==Fire stations== Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service operates 85 fire stations, of which 14 are crewed day and night (wholetime), one day crewed (Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 18:00), two volunteer, one special operations station and the remainder are crewed by retained firefighters who live near to their fire station and can arrive there within five minutes of a call being received.〔http://www.dsfire.gov.uk/AboutUs/WhoWeAre/Stations.cfm?siteCategoryId=2&T1ID=9&T2ID=6〕 The breakdown of stations is as follows: * 6 whole time stations * 8 whole time/retained stations * 1 day crewed (Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 18:00) * 67 retained stations (the largest number in England) * 2 volunteer stations * 1 special operations station (USAR) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
