The Janesville Fire Department is headed back to school for a little training and the vast network of tunnels under Craig High School will come in handy. Lieutenant Bonnie Merath says the Technical Rescue Team will be working with the Haz-Mat team in the unique below-ground environment. Merath calls this type of training invaluable in helping prepare for emergencies ranging from confined space to trench rescues. The training will be conducted Wednesday through Friday.
