Halls & Apparatus

Where and how we operate.

There is a total of five fire halls in the Lesser Slave River region; the greatest distance between halls being 120 kilometers. These five facilities serve and protect more than ten thousand kilometers primarily through the grit and determination of volunteer firefighters.

The Lesser Slave Regional Fire Service attends an average of 350 calls each year, including structure fires, wildland fires, motor vehicle collisions, dangerous goods, disaster response, water response, water rescue, industrial incidents, and technical rescue (rope, ice).

The Lesser Slave Regional Fire Service is unique within the province, as a regional integrated and multi-jurisdictional volunteer fire department operated under one administration and command. The headquarters is located in the Town of Slave Lake.

The Lesser Slave Regional Fire Service is comprised of:

  • A Full-Time Fire Chief
  • A Full-Time Deputy Fire Chief
  • A Full-Time Administrative Assistant
  • A Full-Time Maintenance Officer

Being a regional fire department, it also has a full-time Deputy Chief of Rural Operations, plus four members of the FireSmart crew.
