REPORT CONTENTS The data presented in this report is representative of the incident data that has been submitted to the Division of Fire Safety s NFIRS Unit. Data received has been processed into the State and Federal databases. Please refer to pages 120 through 138 to see if your fire department has contributed to the information in this report. Based upon incidents received, New Jersey fire departments responded to 397,945 incidents in 2006. Data submission is broken down as follows: Of the 745 fire departments in the state, 719 (96%) submitted data. Note: 25 fire departments submitted less than six months of data. 26 fire departments did not submit any data.
