HazMat 33 was received through the Capitol Region Council of Governments from a grant by the Department of Homeland Security. Several participating towns comprise the Capitol Region Hazmat Response Team and HazMat 33 is one of four units which CRCOG received. While HazMat 33 must always be ready to respond regionally it will be frequently utilized locally, much to the benefit of Simsbury.
