On Friday November 8^th, 2024 at 1332 hours the Millville Volunteer Fire Company along with the mutual aid street alarm assignment, the Bethany Beach VFC, were dispatched to the 500 block of Bethany Loop in the Salt Pond Development for a reported gas leak.  Units arrived to find a propane tank leaking from the valve area of the tank.  Units were unable to secure the leak due to the tank valve being damaged.  The propane supplier was contacted to respond to the scene.  Units evacuated the area, deployed a protection line, secured a water supply and monitored the air in the area for explosive levels.  Engine 84-4, Quint 70-4, Ambulance C-84 and Command 70-8 responded on the call.  Deputy Chief Tom Moore Sr., BBVFC, had command of the incident.  Units operated for approximately two hours.
