Pennsville Township, NJ - Representatives from DuPont Chambers Works recently donated five self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) to the Deepwater Fire Company during a presentation at the fire house in Deepwater, NJ. Chambers Works Plant Manager Bland Dickey presented the SCBAs to Deepwater Fire Company Chief Joe Hogan, and Company President Matt Chase. “We are extremely thankful for DuPont’s support of our community fire fighting needs,” said Hogan. Chase added, “The new equipment is important for our team. It protects our firefighters, and enables us to execute critical tasks during an emergency, which helps save lives.” SCBAs are worn by rescue workers, firefighters, and others to provide breathable air in emergency situations. Among those attending the summer afternoon presentation were Pennsville Township Mayor Richard Barnhart and Pennsville Township Committeeman Steve Landis. “We appreciate DuPont’s continued support of our community,” said Barnhart. “The Deepwater Fire Company and its volunteers proudly continue to serve their community, just as they have for more than 80 years and we are pleased to support their important community work,” concluded Dickey.
