Live fire training will take place in St. Joseph County on Monday.

The St. Joseph County Airport Authority Department of Public Safety will conduct its annual Federal Aviation Administration fire training with live burns from 8 a.m. until noon.

This will take place at the live fire training facility on the northwest corner of the airfield at South Bend International Airport.

13 members of the safety department will work together to put out the live fires.

“The FAA fire training with live burns is conducted annually to ensure our team is timely, effective and proficient in putting out large flammable liquid fuel fires,” said SJCAA Department of Public Safety Chief Mike Ornat. “Safety is held to the highest standard across all sectors at the airport. Training procedures like this help our team stay equipped and alert for our traveling public.”
