Booty-shaking babes — and other members of the public — are no longer welcome inside FDNY firehouses unless the visit is cleared by a boss.
The FDNY changed its policy in response to a Post story last week about women shooting video inside firehouses — and then using the footage to pump up their social media profiles, an internal document showed.
From now on, firefighters who invite people into stations will have to take names and notify bosses, according to the revised policy issued Tuesday.
“As per Regulations, 20.3.9, when civilian visitors enter quarters, the member on housewatch shall ascertain their names and nature of their business and then promptly notify the officer on duty,” Department Order 46 reads.
The member on “housewatch” is in charge of everything that happens at the firehouse. The policy includes the notice that “violations of this policy may subject members to disciplinary action.”
The change came after The Post exclusively reported Saturday that two models turned a Greenwich Village fire station into their own personal sorority house — sauntering inside with firefighters, climbing on a firetruck and shaking their booties to Lil Wayne’s “Fireman.”
“Bet you didn’t know you can walk into your local fire station and ask to try on the uniform and take a tour!” one of the women, Dana Treacy, boasted in a March Facebook post about her visit — part of an alarming trend across NYC.
The video made at the Sixth Avenue firehouse, which is home to Ladder 5, generated 78,000 likes on the social media platform.
At least five other posts on the battalion’s Instagram page feature different women posing at the firehouse, which is known as the “Pride of Greenwich Village” because its members were among the first to respond to the Sept. 11 terror attacks on the World Trade Center.
Other photos and videos show young women donning FDNY gear and hanging off firetrucks while dressed in red heels and fishnet stockings. In another, a young woman slides down a fire pole in full FDNY gear.
One longtime FDNY member said the activity “brings the department into disrepute.”
He said liability is a serious issue.
“They can get hurt and sue the city,” he said.
“Someone slides down the firepole or falls out of the engine or ladder and the taxpayers write the check.”
