February 11, 2013. The Centereach Fire Departtment responds to a report of a house fire on Hammond Lane. The roads were poorly plowed at teh time which made it difficult for units to get to the scene. Engine 2 was first in and stretched a line into the building, while other members attempted to locate a hydrant, which unfortunately was buried. They quickly knocked down the fire. Mutual aid was provided by units from the Coram, Ronkonkoma, Selden, Setauket and Nesconset Fire Departments. There were no injuries. The fire investigation is being handled by Brookhaven Town Fire Marshals.
