Correct Operational and Safety Deficiencies
Constructed: 1990
Size: 8,184 sq. ft.
Location/Service Area
Station 34 is located in central Tualatin. It serves the downtown commercial core,
surrounding neighborhoods, Interstates 5 and 205 interchange, and several large
industrial areas. Accidents associated with heavy volumes of large trucks and tractor-trailer
traffic and the presence of several industrial businesses that qualify as hazardous
material sites are two major challenges for this station. Station 34 is home to
one-half of the District's Hazardous Materials Team.
Project Description
Seismic upgrades will reinforce this facility, ensuring emergency response following
a major earthquake and compliance with state law and local building codes. Additional
safety improvements including an interior sprinkler system and provisions for female
firefighters will also be made.

Crews are making rapid progress and it's visible to people driving
past Station 34. A new room has been constructed on the right side
of the building's apparatus bay that will house an office for the
station's firefighters. The crew from Station 34 will use this
office to fill out medical paperwork, conduct hazardous
materials training and research, and complete other paperwork
related to incidents and emergencies. Workers have also made
significant progress making the building more seismically secure and
adding a locker room for female firefighters.
