Congratulations to Jeremy Lasater, the East Umatilla Fire and Rescue Officer of the Year for 2020. Jeremy has completed a four-phase Task Book during 2020. The phases covered Command, Training/Teaching, SOG/Policy Development and Fire Cause/Determination/Investigation. There were tasks, classes and real-world experience within each phase to compliment the intent of the task book. Assistant Chief Lasater is supervising the maintenance of all the fire apparatus and (through the IGA) the ambulance apparatus, as well as the command staff schedule. Jeremy has done a great job and we are fortunate to have him serve our community.
