The Terrorism Emergency Response and Preparedness Division of the Georgia Emergency Management Agency (GEMA) has purchased 13 new vehicles from the General Division of Rosenbauer.
Georgia law enforcement agencies will receive nine medium-duty Haz-Mat Special Response Trucks. The nine units will have General’s heavy-duty 3/16th aluminum rescue-style walk-around bodies, mounted on Freightliner M2-106 chassis.

These new units will be assigned to the City of Calhoun Fire Department and the City of Valdosta Fire Department; two last units have not been assigned as yet.
