--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- May 6-12 is Arson Awareness Month
National Arson Awareness Week is being observed May 6-12. This year’s theme is Prevent Youth Firesetting. According to FEMA Regional Administrator Ken Murphy, we all need to join in a collaborative effort with fire and emergency service departments to zero in on the importance of helping reduce the occurrence of fires caused by children playing with fire.
The APWA Emergency Management Committee would like to stress the importance of public works forging a stronger working relationship with other first responders. Take a step in that direction by recognizing that May 6-12 is Arson Awareness Week.
