The Westampton Township Emergency Services ( WTES ) was formed in 1978 as part of a two station municipal fire department. Since then our department has taken on a completely different image and structure. We are now a single station department providing an expanded mission to our community and those around us. The WTES reports to a Public Safety Director, Township Manager, and Elected Township Committee. The Department Chief is appointed by the Township and must meet rigid local and state-mandated training. All firefighters must attain certification of NJ FF I before they can function as a firefighter. All line and Chief Officers must attain NJ Incident Management I at a minimum before acting in a supervisory role. Our members are active in local, county, and state emergency services organizations. Westampton is a suburban community of 12 square miles and 7217 residents ( 2000 census ), we are still growing with new housing being built at a rate of 10 to 15 houses a month and 2 to 3 industrial/commercial sites being developed a year. Our township is zoned, approximately 60 percent residential and 40 percent commercial/industrial. Our population increases dramatically during daytime working hours. Our first alarm local is much larger. We respond to the needs of our neighboring departments that increases our first alarm response local to 20 square miles and serve approximately 32, 000 residents. Several major county facilities that are within our borders add thousands of people a day traveling here for services provided by the Burlington County Human Services Building, the County Library, County Central Communications and 911 center, County Morgue, County Animal Control Building, Emergency Services Training Center, Special Services School District, and the Burlington County Institute of Technology.
