Raleigh Durham Airport Fire Rescue

==Area Served==
Raleigh–Durham International Airport (IATA code RDU), formerly known as both Raleigh-Durham Army Air Field (1941) and Raleigh–Durham Airport, is the main airport serving Raleigh, Durham, and the surrounding Research Triangle Park region of North Carolina. It is located in unincorporated Wake County, surrounded by the City of Raleigh to the north and east, and the Towns of Cary and Morrisville to the south. The airport covers 5,000 acres and has three runways, two for commercial aircraft and one for general aviation. These accommodate over 600 daily aircraft movements from the 13 commercial airlines operating out of the airport. Raleigh-Durham International Airport is governed by the Raleigh-Durham Airport Authority, an eight-member board with two representatives each from the counties of Wake and Durham and the Cities of Raleigh and Durham. The Airport Authority was established by the North Carolina General Assembly in 1939. Both FedEx and UPS maintain facilities on the north side of DRU, while the North Carolina National Guard’s Army Aviation Support Facility Morrisville with, its own ARFF station, is located on the southeast corner of RDU.
