At 3:38 PM, our department was alerted for an engine to assist UPT Fire & Emergency Services with a large brush fire in the wooded area between Lover's Lane and Lock 60 in the Mont Clare Section of Upper Providence Township.

Initially Chief and Engine 65 responded to the incident. As the incident progressed, additional personnel responded with Recue 65 and Utility 65-1. Our crews assisted with using rakes and leaf blowers to create fire breaks, pulling apart burning wood & brush, and using hose lines to extinguish the fire.

Phoenixville crews cleared the scene after almost five hours.
