Baker Fire Department spokesperson Howard Ward said the new ATV was purchased through an Urban Areas Security Initiative grant for $33,900.
Ward said the new ATV will also be used off-road rescue calls where access is hampered by poor or wet terrain.
The new six-wheeler has a gas engine, a 95-gallon water tank and 5-gallon foam tank complete with hose and nozzles to be used for fighting fires and room in the back for other rescue-related equipment such as a stretcher for the injured, Ward said.
