Emergency Equipment

From time to time, emergency managers at the county and local level need specialized equipment to assist in disaster recovery.

The Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency maintains a warehouse facility, at Fort Indiantown Gap Military Reservation, as well as several other facilities in the Western Region of Pennsylvania.

These facilities house limited emergency engineering equipment that is available to county and local governments for emergency situations.

Emergency engineering equipment includes emergency generators, water pumps and approximately 15 miles of 8-inch aluminum pipe adaptable to 1000 and 1500 GPM pumps.

Emergency generators are available ranging in size from 4 kwh to 10 kwh single phase. Additionally there is one 45 kwh 3-phase available. Water pumps consist of units with pumping capacities of 100, 650, 1000 and 1500 gallons per minute. This equipment is available on a short-term loan basis (normally 60 days) to county and local governments.

Local governments must work through their county emergency management agencies to request the loan of this equipment. Counties will process requests through the appropriate PEMA Regional Office. Once approved, the requesting entity is responsible for all costs associated with pick-up and return of equipment including costs of transportation, use, maintenance, damage, destruction or loss. At the time of pick-up, the requesting entity will be required to sign a hand receipt assuming this responsibility. Equipment loaned is not intended to provide a permanent fix or a remedy to the problem.
