PBEM's portable burn pan is a fire extinguisher demonstration tool intended primarily for community engagement events. However, it can also serve as a NET training tool for low-intensity training when the usual burn pan at Portland Fire & Rescue Training is not available. NET volunteers trained on its setup and use can check out the burn pan.

Burn Pan Program History
PBEM had access to a portable burn pan through one purchased with UASI funds and owned by regional partners. However, access was inconvenient and inconsistent. Recognizing the burn pan's value as an outreach tool, Jeremy at PBEM dedicated funds to purchase one for the bureau.
The portable burn pan was purchased in October 2019 with PBEM bureau general funds (i.e., it was not grant funded). The vendor was Tom Smith Fire Equipment Company, Inc. COVID-19 struck shortly after purchase and it was mothballed and placed in storage until its first use, during a Rosewood Initiative training event, on October 8 2022.
