Herbertsville was there as a FAST team, Whitesville brought a tanker to supply water, and Pleasant Plains was canceled and never brought to the scene. That side of town has very few fire hydrants, so they needed larger trucks that carry more water to supply them with water.

Thank you LFD

It was Herbertsville. Laurelton is not a certified FAST team. Not to mention all their gear says Herbertsville, and station 24 is Herbertsville.
