Announcements
Sawyers Valley 1.4 Pump Replace
As we go to press, Sawyers Valley 1.4 has not returned from the workshop where its pump is being replaced. It is hoped the appliance will be returned sometime on Thursday.
We all look forward to having a fully functioning, high-pressure appliance once more.
Deployment Pool Nominations
There appears to have been a concerted effort within the Brigade to reduce the over-supply of “Daves” which we currently enjoy. No less than three of the four Daves have nominated to be included in the DFES Deployments pool, potentially assisting with fires interstate , as well as across WA. We salute all three Daves, and should they be deployed we may be confident that they will do our Brigade proud.
