Security is our highest priority.

Massport Fire Rescue, Massport Police, the Office of Corporate Security and Emergency Preparedness, and Massachusetts State Police Troop F work in seamless partnership to keep you safe.

Massport Fire Rescue

Massport’s Fire Rescue responsibilities include aircraft rescue and firefighting, structural fire protection, hazardous materials response, emergency medical services, responding to off-shore emergencies with the Marine division, which includes the 79-foot American United fireboat, as well as fire prevention and inspections.

We stay prepared for emergencies by maintaining lifesaving automated external defibrillators, conducting periodic drills, and training airport employees in CPR and first aid. We also organize informative outreach programs—including fire safety education for schoolchildren—in neighboring communities.

Fire departments from all over the United States and Canada come to our state-of-the-art fire training facility. We’re proud to be part of the Massachusetts Metro Fire District and the mutual aid response system for our neighboring communities. Massport Fire Rescue also provides aircraft rescue and firefighting services at Worcester Regional Airport and Hanscom Airfield.
