Donation for CFS

THE Lincoln Country Fire Service brigade received $500 from the Cathedral Rocks Wind Farm earlier this year. Lincoln Captain Greg Napier gratefully accepted the cheque on behalf of the brigade from Wind Farm manager John Fannin.

"The CFS, in particular the Lincoln brigade, has worked closely with us in developing a fire plan for the wind farm," Mr Fannin said.

Mr Fannin takes all contractors and visitors through an induction process as part of the fire plan. This induction briefs them on safe work practices to prevent fires, and what to do in the event of a fire, including making the decision to stay or go.

"It is far easier to invest in methods to prevent fires, but we have also made significant investment- in resources to control a fire should it eventuate."
