At 11:56am, TVFD was dispatched to a cornfield fire on Isabella Road in West Nantmeal. Crews arrived on location with a large field on fire and requested additional brush trucks and a tanker be dispatched. Stations 48 and 33 (Glenmoore and Honey Brook FC) were alerted for brush units, a tanker, and manpower to assist. All crews worked together to contain the fire spread and provide suppression.

Final units cleared at 1:18pm.
