Rousseau has lined up a fire muster in Webster this weekend, Memorial Day ceremonies in Framingham and Fourth of July parades in Natick and Sudbury. He also maintains five retired Framingham fire trucks, including a 1930 Framingham Engine 4.

The fire station and visitor center is outfitted with solar panels to produce 8 kilowatts of renewable energy for the station.

“We are very pleased with the addition of this facility to our valley," Sequoia National Forest District Ranger Al Watson said in a news release. "The location will improve response time and provide easy access to Highway 178 while contributing to the needs of the community’s health and safety.”

Station 14 was built as a Net Zero Energy building, a design concept that utilizes solar features, specialized insulation, natural light and other energy-efficient materials ,officials said.

The new facility generates its own power from a 110-kilowatt solar array comprised of more than 300 panels.

Living quarters have 10 single-bunk rooms and two officer suites, and an administrative station office, kitchen, maintenance and training rooms.

“We are very grateful for the incredible support of local fire departments to the Faber family. This donation is to honor the memory of Jesse Faber,” said Shannon Horstmeyer, executive assistant at LSC.

“This is near and dear to my heart,” said Chief Vern Butzine of the Waterloo Fire Department. “Anytime a situation like this happens, we are always there to help out.

“It’s a community effort,” Butzine added. “The strong support of the community and companies like Landmark keep us going. It is very much appreciated.”
