Monday, December 30, 2013 - Christmas Evening at 22:54 hours, Tanker 59 was dispatched as part of a Tanker Task Force to assist Company 89 (Robert Fulton) on a working Structure on Jubilee Road in Fulton Twp.  First arriving units found a two story dwelling fully involved and immediately called defensive operations.  Tanker 59 responded moments after dispatch and upon arrival was part of a water shuttle relay.  Due to the location of the dwelling and the fact that their were no fire hydrants in the area, the water had to be hauled in by Tankers.  The fill site was at the Nuclear Power Plant along Route 222 just over the state line.

Tanker 59 operated on scene for roughly three and a half hours before going available at 02:09 hours.
