Service de Sécurité Incendie de Lévis

History[]

The Service de sécurité incendie de la ville de Lévis was created on January 1st 2002 with the amalgamation of the following departments and their respective cities:

Lévis
- Lévis
- Saint-Joseph-de-la-Pointe-De Lévy
Pintendre
Régie intermunicipale des incendies de la Chaudière-Etchemin
- Charny
- Saint-Jean-Chrysostome
- Saint-Romuald
- Sainte-Hélène-de-Breakeyville
Saint-Étienne-de-Lauzon
Saint-Nicolas
- Saint-Nicolas
- Saint-Rédempteur

Before the 2002 amalgation, the Service de sécurité incendie de la ville de Lévis had a combination police-fire department as well as part-time firefighters and also covered the town of Saint-Joseph-de-la-Pointe-De Lévy. The original department was created in 1990 with the amalgation of Saint-David-de-l'Auberivière and Lévis-Lauzon. Lévis-Lauzon, an amalgamation of the towns of Lévis and Lauzon, was formed in 1989. Saint-Nicolas operated two stations with part-time firefighters and covered the town of Bernières. Before the construction of the second station, Bernières was covered by a pumper-tanker running from Saint-Rédempteur. Pintendre, Saint-Rédempteur and Saint-Étienne-de-Lauzon each had a small department with part-time firefighters. Charny, Saint-Jean-Chrysostome, Sainte-Hélène-de-Breakeyville and Saint-Romuald operated a mutual aid system and each town had a station with part-time firefighters.

The department is now a full-time department with 6 stations. Stations 1, 2 and 3 are manned by six firefighters per shift and station 4, 5 and 6 are manned by four firefighters.
