Support for local CFS units
ElectraNet strives to meet its obligations and responsibilities to people who live near, and the environments around, our assets. We take precautions at all times and specifically during the bush fire danger seasons. In consultation with the Country Fire Service (CFS), activities are managed to address risks associated with fire prevention and management. ElectraNet also follows the Country Fire Ban District regions for vegetation management activity each year.
CFS Brigades in Mt Barker, Pt. Lincoln, Clare and Mt. Bryan all received a corporate donation for the provision of equipment, training and recruitment costs to prepare for the coming 2008-09 summer season.
ElectraNet plays its part in protecting the community from bushfires by maintaining a cyclical vegetation clearance program on all its powerlines throughout the State. We take this responsibility very seriously and so we understand the expectations of regional communities and in turn appreciate services such as the local Country Fire Service units run by local community members.
