This effectively gave control of the fire departments in the cities of New York and Brooklyn to the Governor who appointed his Board of Commissioners. There was never any effective incorporation of the fire departments of the two cities during this period. It wasn't until the Greater City of New York was consolidated in 1898 that the two were combined under one common organization or organizational structure. The change met with a mixed reaction from the citizens, and some of the eliminated volunteers became bitter and resentful, which resulted in both political battles and street fights. The insurance companies in the city, however, finally won the battle and had the volunteers replaced with paid firefighters. The members of the paid fire department were primarily selected from the prior volunteers. All of the volunteer's apparatus, including their fire houses, were seized by the state who made use of them to form the new organization and form the basis of the current FDNY. The MFD lasted until 1870 when the <a href="/wiki/William_M._Tweed" title="William M. Tweed">Tweed Charter</a> ended state control in the city. As a result, a new Board of Fire Commissioners was created and the original name of the <i>Fire Department City of New York</i> (<i>FDNY</i>) was reinstated. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:New_York_City_Fire_Department_Battalion_Chief_John_J._Bresnan_(left)_answering_a_call_(1887).jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/78/New_York_City_Fire_Department_Battalion_Chief_John_J._Bresnan_%28left%29_answering_a_call_%281887%29.jpg/220px-New_York_City_Fire_Department_Battalion_Chief_John_J._Bresnan_%28left%29_answering_a_call_%281887%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="170" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/78/New_York_City_Fire_Department_Battalion_Chief_John_J._Bresnan_%28left%29_answering_a_call_%281887%29.jpg/330px-New_York_City_Fire_Department_Battalion_Chief_John_J._Bresnan_%28left%29_answering_a_call_%281887%29.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/78/New_York_City_Fire_Department_Battalion_Chief_John_J._Bresnan_%28left%29_answering_a_call_%281887%29.jpg/440px-New_York_City_Fire_Department_Battalion_Chief_John_J._Bresnan_%28left%29_answering_a_call_%281887%29.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1718" data-file-height="1324" /></a><figcaption>Battalion Chief John J.

All the fire forces in the various sections were brought under the unified command of the first Commissioner in the history of the Fire Department. This same year, <a href="/wiki/Richmond_County,_New_York" class="mw-redirect" title="Richmond County, New York">Richmond</a> (now <a href="/wiki/Staten_Island" title="Staten Island">Staten Island</a>) became a part of the City of New York. However, the volunteer units there remained in place until they were gradually replaced by paid units in 1915, 1928, 1932 and 1937, when only two volunteer units remained, Oceanic Hook & Ladder Vol Engine and Richmond Fire. </p><p>The unification of the Fire Department, which took place in 1898, would pave the way for many changes. In 1909, the Fire Department received its first piece of motorized <a href="/wiki/Fire_apparatus" class="mw-redirect" title="Fire apparatus">fire apparatus</a>. On March 25, 1911 a fire in the <a href="/wiki/Triangle_Shirtwaist_Factory_fire" title="Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire">Triangle Shirtwaist Company</a> killed 146 workers, most of whom were young female immigrants. Later the same year the fire college was formed to train new fire fighters, and on May 1, 1913 the Bureau of Fire Prevention was created.<sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1919, the <a href="/wiki/Uniformed_Firefighters_Association" title="Uniformed Firefighters Association">Uniformed Firefighters Association</a> was formed. Tower ladders and the SuperPumper System were introduced in 1965. Major apparatus of the SuperPumper System (the SuperPumper and the SuperTender) was phased out in 1982, in favor of the Maxi-Water Unit. But the 5 Satellite Units of the system, together with the Maxi-Water Unit (known as Satellite 6 since 1999) are still actively used as of 2007 for multiple alarm fires and certain other incidents. These are now called the Satellite Water System. Other technical advances included the introduction of high pressure water systems, the creation of a Marine fleet, adoption of vastly improved working conditions and the utilization of improved radio communications. </p><p>On November 23, 1965, incoming Mayor Lindsay announced the appointment of <a href="/wiki/Robert_O._Lowery" title="Robert O.

PSAC 1 covers Brooklyn, Staten Island and Citywide which is part of the Joint Operation Center as of October 2020. PSAC 2 covers the Bronx, Manhattan and Queens. </p><p>An initial call to an FDNY Communications Dispatch Office is taken by the <i>Alarm Receipt Dispatcher</i> (ARD), who speaks with the caller in order to determine the nature of the emergency. The ARD interrogates the caller to ascertain pertinent information and processes it into the Starfire computer system, which generates an incident and provides a recommended fire department resource response based on the information provided. This information is automatically sent to the <i>Decision Dispatcher</i> (DD). </p><p>When the Decision Dispatcher has made a decision as to what units will actually be assigned to the incident, unless the supervisor intervenes, the dispatcher releases the incident with assigned companies. An alarm is routed to the assigned companies, both in their respective firehouses and to the individual <a href="/wiki/Mobile_data_terminal" title="Mobile data terminal">mobile data terminals</a> (MDT), of each company's apparatus when it is in the field, depending on where the Starfire computer shows them to be situated. If a company/unit in a firehouse does not acknowledge the run within 30 seconds, the computer will notify the <i>Voice Alarm Dispatcher</i> (VAD), who will call that unit via radio in their firehouse by the dedicated intercom system. One minute after the alarm is released, it will appear on the computer screen of the radio dispatcher (Radio), who will announce the alarm and the response two times, and ask for acknowledgment from any companies assigned who have not done so by radio, voice alarm, or MDT. The radio dispatcher has a special keyboard called the Status Entry Panel (SEP), which is used to update the status of units based on information received by radio. </p><p>The entire process from initial notification until a unit is dispatched can take up to two minutes, depending on the complexity of the call, the information provided by the caller(s), and the degree of other alarm activity in the office. If a dispatch office is so busy that its incoming telephone alarm lines are all occupied or not answered within 30 seconds, the call is automatically transferred to another borough dispatch office.

A telephone alarm is an alarm in which a civilian uses a telephone to dial one of three types of numbers: The first is <a href="/wiki/9-1-1" class="mw-redirect" title="9-1-1">9-1-1</a>, which is answered by <a href="/wiki/New_York_City_Police_Department" title="New York City Police Department">New York City Police Department</a> (NYPD) operators. The NYPD operators will then transfer the call to a fire department communications office. The second involves dialing "0" which routes the call to a telephone company operator, who then transfers the call to the fire dispatchers in the proper borough dispatch office. The third is a special seven-digit telephone number, which is published in each borough for the specific purpose of reporting fires. This number is a direct contact to a particular borough's fire department communications dispatch office.</li> <li><b>Fire alarm boxes</b> are the second most common method of contacting the fire department. FDNY <a href="/wiki/Fire_alarm_box" class="mw-redirect" title="Fire alarm box">fire alarm boxes</a> are located on certain street corners and in certain public buildings, such as schools and hospitals, as well as along highways, on bridges, etc. These boxes primarily consist of two types: The first is the mechanical box (also commonly called a <i>pull-box</i> or a <i>telegraph box</i>), in which a spring-wound mechanism alternately opens and closes an electrical circuit, thereby rendering a coded number linked to the specific location of the box. Until the advent of the Starfire "Computer-Assisted Dispatch System" (CADS), dispatchers had to audibly count the taps from mechanical boxes when they were received in the central offices to decipher the number of the box that was pulled. Today, a "Box Alarm Readout System" (BARS) display handles that aspect of the job; The second type is the "Emergency Reporting System" (ERS) box that is equipped with buttons to notify either the FDNY or the NYPD, allowing either department's dispatcher to have direct voice communication with the reporting party. Beginning in the 1970s, ERS boxes started to replace mechanical boxes in many areas of the city, particularly where the number of false alarms involving mechanical boxes were high. In December 1994, then-Mayor <a href="/wiki/Rudy_Giuliani" title="Rudy Giuliani">Rudolph Giuliani</a> and then-Fire Commissioner <a href="/wiki/Howard_Safir" title="Howard Safir">Howard Safir</a> began a concerted effort to remove all of the mechanical and ERS boxes throughout New York City in a cost-cutting move. Facing stiff opposition from members of the city council, community groups, dispatchers, and others, the move was blocked by court order as being discriminatory against the disabled (i.e., particularly the speech- and/or hearing-impaired) who—along with the poor—might otherwise have no dependable way to report fires and emergencies if the alarm boxes were eliminated. (In addition, unlike many other cities in the world, it was noted that 117 different languages and dialects are spoken by the residents of and visitors to the city. Since, unlike telephones, a fire alarm box requires no verbal contact to indicate its exact location, a person would not have to be able to speak—at all—or to understand English in order to alert the FDNY or NYPD to a fire or other emergency. For this reason, as well, the boxes were recognized as being vital to New Yorkers' safety.) The court order to block the removal of the boxes provided a means for people to report emergencies during the <a href="/wiki/Northeast_blackout_of_2003" title="Northeast blackout of 2003">2003 blackout</a>, when other forms of communication were cut off. The fire alarm boxes, independent of outside power, continued to function the entire time.<sup id="cite_ref-61" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-61"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>61<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li><b>"Class 3" alarms</b> are less common than the first two means of reporting fires. A "Class 3" alarm is one of three numerical classes of alarms given by the FDNY's Bureau of Communications to alert the fire department to automatic fire alarm systems, which are routed through commercial alarm companies. These firms monitor sprinkler systems, standpipes, smoke detectors, and internal pull-stations in non-public occupancies, such as: factories, warehouses, stores, and office buildings. When alarms are received from such accounts, these companies pass along the information to the FDNY central offices, usually by dedicated telephone circuits. The term "Class 3" was derived from the fact that the box number on such an assignment card would have a "3" preceding it, in addition to a "terminal" following it (e.g., "3-7012-4" would indicate a private alarm system in a commercial occupancy at a specific address, in the immediate vicinity of Box 7012, on the corner of Review Avenue and Laurel Hill Boulevard in Queens). In such cases, the type of alarm (e.g., sprinkler, smoke detector, interior pull-station, etc.) and an exact address—and, often, even a specific section of a building—would instantly be made available to responding units.)</li> <li><b>Verbal alarms</b> are the least common means of reporting fires or emergencies, and generally involves civilians "verbally" making such reports directly to firehouses or fire companies. This can include incidents that are observed by fire units themselves when they are away from their quarters. However, "verbal" alarms may also be reported by EMS Bureau personnel, NYPD personnel, chief officers, Department officials (e.g., commissioners, medical officers, chaplains, et al.), or civilian employees of the FDNY (e.g., communications electricians, mechanics, dispatchers, etc.), who observe fires or emergencies in the course of the performance of their duties. If a fire company is available in quarters, it will immediately respond to the incident after advising the dispatchers of the same via telephone, voice alarm, or radio. If the unit is away from its firehouse (e.g., responding to or operating at another alarm, on inspection duty, etc.) at the time, the company will either stop at the new incident and operate, or the officer will request a separate assignment (as the reporting unit is unavailable to operate). Based on the information received by the dispatchers, the appropriate action (e.g., transmitting a new box, etc.) is initiated in regard to the new incident.</li></ul> <p>When a member of the public dials 911, the caller is connected to a police department operator, who assigns the call to where it needs to go based on the information provided. </p> <ul><li>If it is police related, the information is sent to an NYPD radio dispatcher for the precinct or special unit concerned.</li> <li>If it is on a bridge or in a tunnel connected to New Jersey or at <a href="/wiki/John_F._Kennedy_International_Airport" title="John F. Kennedy International Airport">Kennedy</a> or <a href="/wiki/LaGuardia_Airport" title="LaGuardia Airport">LaGuardia Airport</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Port_Authority_of_New_York_and_New_Jersey" title="Port Authority of New York and New Jersey">Port Authority of New York and New Jersey</a> is also notified.</li> <li>If it is a fire, <a href="/wiki/Haz-mat" class="mw-redirect" title="Haz-mat">haz-mat</a>, or <a href="/wiki/Rescue" title="Rescue">rescue</a> incident, the 9-1-1 operator transfers the call by dedicated phone line to the appropriate FDNY communications dispatch office. (Depending on the type of incident, the NYPD may notify its own Emergency Service Units to respond instead of <i>or</i> along with the Fire Department.)</li></ul> <p>Fire alarm dispatchers handle comparatively few medical calls made directly to them, since the vast majority of such incidents are routed straight to the FDNY's EMS communications office by the NYPD 9-1-1 operators. However, a medical call that requires the assistance of "first-responder"-trained fire units will have said request routed electronically to the appropriate fire alarm central office, for the assignment of the proper personnel and apparatus. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Box_numbers">Box numbers</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=New_York_City_Fire_Department&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: Box numbers"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Each address in the city is assigned a box number, based on the closest street, special building, or highway box. The term "box" refers to the <a href="/wiki/Manual_fire_alarm_activation" title="Manual fire alarm activation">Fire Alarm Boxes</a>, which at one time lined street corners and in front of certain buildings. Each Fire Alarm Box was given a specific number by the FDNY's Bureau of Communications. Even if the physical fire alarm box is no longer at a specific address or street corner, the address or street corner is still assigned that fire alarm box's number. Box numbers can be duplicated in different boroughs, which is why they are always identified by borough name or numerical prefix on the computer (66 for Bronx and Manhattan, 77 for Brooklyn, 88 for Staten Island and 99 for Queens). If there is also a street address given to the dispatchers, the responding apparatus will get this information in the firehouse, over the air, and via their mobile data terminals in the rigs—in addition to the Box number. At present, there are about 16,000 physical fire alarm street boxes in New York City, with many additional special building boxes and highway boxes, as well as "dummy boxes" used for special response assignments. In addition there are two airport crash boxes, one in the LaGuardia Tower, (Queens Box 37), and one in the JFK Tower, (Queens Box 269), which can only be activated by the personnel in these towers. When either box is sounded, it brings an automatic second alarm (2–2) response of equipment, along with various special units. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Critical_Information_Dispatch_System">Critical Information Dispatch System</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=New_York_City_Fire_Department&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Critical Information Dispatch System"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><b>Critical Information Dispatch System</b> (CIDS, pronounced by the dispatcher as "Sids") data is transmitted to units in the firehouse and en route.

Each company responds to emergency calls from one of the city's 218 <a href="/wiki/Fire_station" title="Fire station">firehouses</a>. </p><p>There are currently six different types of fire companies in the New York Fire Department, which all operate distinct types of apparatus: 197 engine companies, 143 ladder (or truck) companies, 5 rescue companies, 8 squad companies, 3 marine (or <a href="/wiki/Fireboat" title="Fireboat">fireboat</a>) companies, and the hazardous materials (hazmat) company. In addition to these six types of fire companies, there are numerous other specialized units that are operated by the Special Operations Command (S.O.C.), the Haz-Mat. Division, and the Marine Division. Each fire company has a specific role at the scene of an emergency. </p><p>Each type of fire company utilizes a certain type of fire apparatus, colloquially known as "rigs".
