LOCAL FEDERAL MP APPLAUDS LOCAL RURAL BUSHFIRE BRIGADE IN ASSISTING FIRES AT PEATS RIDGE
The Member for Berowra, Philip Ruddock acknowledged the enormous commitment and dedication of Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Rural Fire Service who sent over 130 volunteers at the 200 ha fire at Peat’s Ridge at the weekend.
“They worked tirelessly over for two days protecting properties and bringing the fire under control, risking their lives to protect others,” Mr Ruddock said.
“Although bushfires are a natural phenomena we all need to be mindful of how bushfires can start and how best to handle these serious occurrences.
“Without the leadership of Superintendent Baldo and Inspector Daniel Busch and all their team people in fire zones would not feel so safe,” Philip Ruddock said.
