Fire agencies are required by law to have any new applicant to the agency checked against the arson database.

This also includes a member who had left an agency and is applying for membership with the same agency again or another fire agency elsewhere.

For Saratoga County fire departments, the arson background check form is to be mailed to:

Capt. Jeff Brown

Saratoga County Sheriff's Office
