Joint water tank installation and familiarisation

MT Forbes and Mutdapilly

 

The first tank in a series of 6 was declared operational for the Brigades in the Ipswich Group Area.

This was made possible with a donation from Mayor Paul Pisasale and Councillor David Pahlke of Ipswich City Council. 

More will follow in other Brigade areas to assist local brigade with a supply of water for fire fighting.  The water is non potable and the tanks will be serviced by the Ipswich Group Water Tanker and Mt Forbes Water Tanker.  

The camlocks are guarded with a lock and Brigade and Urban appliances  will have the keys. 

The Group was presented with a plaque to commemorate the installation of the first tank and a large promotional duplicate cheque to put on display for historic reference.

More sign writing to come on the tanks.

 

The Ipswich Group and the Brigades which form Ipswich Group are pleased with the support given by the Local Authority.

 

The new tanks to be installed in the Ipswich Local Authority will be serviced by the Group Water Tanker,  donated by Ipswich City Council to Ipswich Group in 2002.
