  • Hazrep Program Review
    HHAZAZRREPEP PPROGRAMROGRAM Report: Second Quarter 2012 Summary of reports spanning April 2012– June 2012 Helicopter Services Division HazRep Program Review: Hazards are something each of us encounter every day simply due to the nature of op- erating in the aviation environment. PRISM has created a system (similar to NASA’s ASRS) designed to diminish the risks your organization and its’ employees face while performing their jobs. Our vision is to elevate every subscriber’s awareness of com- mon industry hazards, thereby mitigating the associated risks. But we need your help in order to identify these hazards. Please consider participating in this program by en- tering your hazard information into the Aviation Risk Management Online Resource (ARMOR) on the PRISM website (Professional subscribers only) [or emailing a soft copy if you prefer] to PRISM any hazard reports submitted to you via your reporting process. Your information will be completely sanitized to ensure anonymity, and your submission will then be destroyed to ensure confidentiality. We will compile the infor- mation and create a hazard knowledgebase for the sole purpose of safety analysis. This will allow us to provide you with the most current and applicable hazard identifica- tion and risk mitigation information available. There are currently over 180 PRISM sub- scribers; with adequate participation this hazard knowledge base will become a benefi- cial component of your Safety Management System. We want to dispel any misgivings and reassure you that the information will not be identifiably associated with any com- pany, and will be used for the stated safety purpose only. A Valuable SMS Component This report is created for inclusion into your Safety Management System to aid in iden- tifying hazard trends present in organizations with similar operating characteristics.

  • Auburn Fire Department a History from 1888-2000
    Auburn Fire Department A History from 1888-2000 by Kenneth A. Holstrom Dedication This history is dedicated to Floyd Holstrom whose love of Auburn, and the Auburn Fire Department, has been a source of pride and inspiration, and to the dedicated men and women who have served the Auburn Fire Department with distinction, honor and tradition for over one hundred years. Floyd E. Holstrom AUBURN Alfred Bennett 1917-1922 Ralph H. White 1922-1965 FIRE John J. Boudreau 1965-1980 Robert E. Murray 1980-1986 CHIEFS Roger G. Belhumeur 1987-2001 William A. Whynot 2001- History of the Auburn Fire Department April 30, 1888 from the log book of Fire Warden William F. Stone “Land of Charles Stone 4/26/88; fire started in vest pocket of Oliver Latour. Gentleman was pealing wires (telegraph). Vest and coat on ground and fire started. Burned three acres of pasture and sprout land.” November 9, 1889 from the log book of Fire Warden H.E. Stone: “Farm of Michael Sullivan, barn, hay, straw, combinder, 5 hogs, harnesses, farm tools, wagon, plow, and house damage. Total damage $868.00.” The threat of fire has always been of great concern to the residents of Auburn. The need for a fire department was evident in these two entries in the fire warden’s logbooks. It is from here the story unfolds of the formation of the Auburn Fire Department. Many hours of researching town records, fire department logbooks, newspaper articles and interviews with many interesting people have allowed this story to be told. Fire wardens’ duties consisted of recording damage to land and property by fire in the areas where they lived.
