Located in central Tualatin, the prominent location of the Tualatin station brings many interactions with the public, who regularly stop by the station for a wide variety of reasons, including blood pressure checks, and station tours. Advanced Life Support (ALS) Engine 34's response area encompasses downtown Tualatin and its suburbs, the Interstate 5/Interstate 205 interchange, and several large industrial areas. In addition to its location resulting in a heavy volume of large trucks and tractor-trailer traffic, several of the industrial businesses qualify as hazardous material sites. Engine 34 is staffed by a paramedic at all times. Station personnel also function as the District's Hazmat Team. The State of Oregon contracts with Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue to staff a team of personnel trained as Hazardous Materials Technicians. This training has prepared them to respond to a variety of hazardous material-related calls in the northwest corner of the state. The South Division Battalion Chief also maintains an office at Station 34 and responds to calls from there.
