Clarington Emergency & Fire Services (Ontario)

==History==
The Town of Newcastle was formed through amalgamation in 1974. In 1993, it was renamed the Municipality of Clarington partly due to confusion of the municipal name with that of the community of Newcastle within its borders.
The fire departments that combined to form the new Newcastle Fire Department were:
*Bowmanville Fire Department
*Clarke Township Fire Department in Orono
*Newcastle Fire Department covering the original Village of Newcastle

==Future Plans==
As per the newly released master plan of June 2023, the volunteers will no longer be in service at Station 1 by 2026 and Station 4 by 2027 and will be replaced by a 2nd full time staffed response apparatus at both stations. Station 2 will remain composite and Station 3 and 5 will remain volunteer staffed.
There is also talk of building a training ground and possible station on Concession 4 (which will be staffed by the 2nd truck from Station 4) and Durham EMS is looking to lease space for a vehicle to be stationed at Station 5.
