Thursday, late in the afternoon, a gas leak caused a fire to start in Hent Gonery, near the church. Around fifteen firefighters from the Tréguier and Pleubian emergency centers and the gendarmes from the Tréguier territorial brigade and the Lannion surveillance and intervention platoon (Psig) were quickly on the scene.
This is the scenario of a first full-scale test imagined by the Côtes-d'Armor Departmental Fire and Rescue Service, 22 as part of intercenter simulation exercises.
The essential point of the maneuver remains the collaboration between the emergency services, the gendarmerie and the municipality so that “people know each other and are perfectly coordinated the day an event occurs”, explains Lieutenant-Colonel Philippe Le Cleuziat, head of the western territorial grouping.
Under the watchful eyes of Captain Cédric Lorribe and Lieutenants Cyrille Bizet and Guillaume Guttierez, the firefighters unfolded the intervention protocol to be respected for this type of intervention. The company Le Dû, from Châtelaudren-Plouagat, in charge of supplying gas by tanker to several sites in the department, participated in the exercise.
