Service de Sécurité Incendie de Lévis

History
The Service de Sécurité Incendie de Lévis was created on January 1st 2002 with the amalgamation of the following cities :
 * Lévis


 * Charny


 * Saint-Jean Chrysostome


 * Saint-Romuald


 * Saint-Nicolas


 * Saint-Rédempteur


 * Pintendre


 * Saint-Étienne de Lauzon


 * Saint-Hélène de Breakeyville


 * Saint-Joseph de la Pointe de Lévy.

Lévis had a combination police-fire department as well as part-time firefighters and covered the small town of Saint-Joseph de la Pointe de Lévy. Saint-Nicolas operated two stations with part-time firefighters and covered the town of Saint-Rédempteur. Pintendre, Saint-Étienne de Lauzon and Sainte-Hélène de Breakeyville each had a small department with part-time firefighters. Charny, Saint-Jean-Chrysostome and Saint-Romuald operated a mutual aid system and each town had a station with part-time firefighters.

The department is now a composite department with 4 full-time stations and 2 part-time stations. Stations 1 ,2 and 3 are manned by six firefighters and station 4 are manned by four firefighters. Stations 5 and 7 are part-time stations and plans are in place to rebuild station 5 by mid 2013 and station 7 by late 2011. These two new stations will also be full-time and manned by four firefighters.

Like most departments in Québec, apparatus numbering depends on the type of apparatus. Thus, 100s are officer's vehicles, 200s are first line pumpers, 300s reserve pumpers, 400s ladders and quints, 500s are rescue squads, 600s are tankers, 700s platforms, 800s are medical first responders, 900s are utility vehicles and 1000s specialised vehicles.
