Russian State Fire Service
Russian State Fire Service (Russian: Государственная противопожарная служба, romanized: Gosudarstvennaya protivopozharnaya sluzhba) is the highest fire service body of Russian Federation. A part of the Ministry of Emergency Situations since 2001, the State Fire Service is divided into the Federal Fire Service and the Fire Service of the Federal subjects of Russia.
The State Fire Service's 220,000 personnel operate out of 13,600 buildings and structures, including 4000 plus fire stations containing 18,634 fire apparatus and 49 fireboats.
State Fire Service divisions participate in over two million operations a year, rescue over 90,000 lives, save property evaluated as high as 120 billion rubles.
The Institute for Fire Defense and Scientific Research and 70 special laboratories are responsible for the SFS scientific support, new technologies and methods of work.
The first fire service in Russia was established by Czar Alexey Mikhailovich under signed decree named "Direction on Municipal rescue", which signed on April 30, 1649, in Moscow.
Six months after the October Revolution, on April 17, 1918, Vladimir Lenin signed a decree on organisation of activities for firefighting, which was considered the birth date for the Soviet State Fire service. Up to 2001 the Fire Service was part of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia.
By 1927, the heterogeneity in uniforms and insignia in the republics practically disappeared and the uniform of firefighters of the RSFSR came to be used as a model for introduction for a long time. Fire protection was provided by both professional and voluntary fire brigades (1927–1932), subordinate to the NKVD of the RSFSR.
In 1930, the militarization of the transport fire department was carried out, on the basis of which the militarized fire department of the People's Commissariat of Communication Routes of the Soviet Union of the USSR was created. The service life of paramilitary personnel was at least two years. At the end of 1930, the Main Directorate of Public Utilities and the Police Department were separated from the NKVD and transferred to the direct subordination of the Council of People's Commissars of the RSFSR. On March 4, 1931, the Council of People's Commissars of the RSFSR issues a document on the centralization of the republic's fire service. The departmental ones remained: the fire protection of the NKPS, the Navy and the People's Commissariat of Water Transport.
