The St. Albans Town Fire Department (SATFD) is a fully volunteer run Fire Department that was chartered in 1975 to respond to fire emergencies within the Town of St. Albans.  Since the create of SATFD, the fire service has changed greatly.  Now SATFD not only responds to fire emergencies within the community, it also provides response and resolution of maritime emergencies, ice rescues on Lake Champlain, vehicle accident response, hazardous material emergency response and provides mutual aid responses for emergencies in other communities.
