SUBIC BAY FREEPORT—The Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority has inaugurated a P24.7-million fire station designed to modernize the operations of the agency’s corps of elite firefighters and further upgrade capacity for emergency response.
The construction of the new fire station began in July 2020 under an SBMA program to replace aging facilities built when Subic was still an American naval base. Last Monday, SBMA officials led by Chairman Rolen Paulino Sr. inaugurated the building with guests coming from the fire departments of Makati City and Olongapo City.
Magno disclosed that the new facility has a water and oil separator engineering system, which is designed to conform to the Environmental Management System standards for ISO14001. This would ensure that fire and rescue operations preclude pollution and detrimental effects on the environment. Moreover, the new facility has a mini museum with display of old fire and rescue equipment that will come in handy during educational tours.
