The Operations Division is one of the two Divisions within the Lodi Fire Department. As the Fire Chief plans the direction of the department is the Operations Division Chiefs responsibility to implement these plans.  
  Under the Operations Chief are four Battalion Chiefs. One B.C. is the Training Officer while the other three oversee a suppression shift each.
