Technical Rescue Team

In 1993, the City of North Charleston Fire Department recognized the need for a high angle rescue team. Due to the rapid growth of the city and it's increasing building heights, prompted the the birth of our first rope team. Battalion Chief Cliff Forner and Captain Trey Coker tackled the chore of making things work. They along with other members of the fire department, have attended various technical rescue classes, expanding the team skills. The City of North Charleston Technical Rescue Team is proficient in dealing with building collapse, trench rescue, and Urban Search and Rescue.
