Welcome to New Creek Volunteer Fire Department's web page. Our department was organized on August 17th, 1961, in the heart of the New Creek Valley. The town of New Creek, is located just south of Keyser, WV. The New Creek VFD provides both fire and EMS protection for approximately 75 square miles. Our coverage area includes rural, suburban, and a largely growing commercial sector.
New Creek's coverage area extends from Valley View Road off of Rt 220 south, to the Grant County Line on Rt 93, but also responds with Maysville VFD as a dual response to Walker's Ridge, due to the closer proximity of New Creek. To the East, the department responds to the top of the 3 lanes on Rt 50 towards Burlington. The the West, the department covers to the end of the first set of 3 lanes going up the mountain on Rt 50 towards Elk Garden and Mt. Storm.
New Creek also provides 2nd due fire coverage to all surrounding areas when requested. EMS coverage provides 2nd due services to the city of Keyser, much of Burlington, the town of Elk Garden, and some areas in Grant County along Rt 93.
NCVFD is the busiest combination fire/ems department in Mineral County, and 2nd busiest of all agencies, Keyser EMS being the busiest. Until August of 2007, the department only ran a advanced life support rapid response unit. In August, the department added it's first ambulance, courtesy of the Mineral County Ambulance Authority. With the increase in demand for EMS services from New Creek, a second ambulance was placed in service in December of 2007.
New Creek VFD is proud of all the accomplishments of our members. In todays world, sadly volunteering seems to be a dieing trend. Not in New Creek though. Statistics (taken from the department's monthly NFIRS reports) show the accomplishments of the department. Our response time is what we are most proud of. From the time of dispatch until the first arriving fire or ems apparatus, the department averages between 6 and 10 minutes. This time is almost unheard of, in small rural all volunteer fire departments.
