ONE LIFE AT A TIME — Sonoma County Fire and Emergency Services
Department was awarded a $100,348 traffic safety grant for the
purchase of extrication equipment for four volunteer fire company
response areas, thanks to funding from the California Office of
Traffic Safety (OTS) through the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration. The grant funded equipment can aid in more quickly
and efficiently extricating victims from a severely damaged
vehicle. Sonoma County Fire and Emergency Services Department has
purchased and distributed extrication systems in communities served
by Mountain, Valley Ford, Bodega, and Annapolis Volunteer Fire
Companies. Pictured are members of the Bodega Volunteer Fire
Department with some of the new equipment.
