Great multi-agency HAZMAT training focused on responding to a potential chemical incident at the Wundowie Wastewater Treatment Plant.

Each agency spoke about their role in an incident response, when situations should be escalated, and the capabilities and resources they can provide during a chemical emergency.

Combined training with Wundowie Volunteer Fire & Rescue Service, Wheatbelt District - WA Police Force, Shire of Northam and Water Corporation.

It was a valuable opportunity for our newer members to gain knowledge on use of fully enclosed gas suits and more complex hazmat incidents, and strengthen communication, coordination and preparedness across all responding organisations.

Thanks to all involved for sharing their knowledge and experience.

We had a crew on standby today at the Beverley Airshow with other emergency services volunteers from Beverley and Toodyay. It was fantastic to witness such complex aerial manoeuvres performed so professionally and without incident.

With over 7,500 attendees from across Australia and abroad, this was one of the largest events we have assisted with as a fire and rescue response team.

It was also great to see educational displays of a Parks and Wildlife Service, Western Australia fixed-wing water bomber and the Royal Flying Doctor Service WA aircraft and demonstrations by Department of Fire and Emergency Services WA helitaks. A brilliant airshow and a credit to Paul Bennet Airshows, Beverley Soaring Society, Visit Beverley WA and all the other performers, volunteers and support crews involved in making this event possible.

The aerial acrobatics and aviation display event is WA's only airshow and has returned to Beverley after 25 years.
