Status of SES Port Lincoln LHQ

(1/2) > >>

bajdas:
Media reports are that the Port Lincoln SES Headquarters was burnt out at the Port Lincoln fires yesterday.

But I thought they were in the new complex with MFS and CFS on the same area. If so, how did the fire affect one services without affecting the others ?

Also, did the Unit loose the boat & vehicles or just the shed and equipment they could not move quickly ?

Any local information would be appreciated.

Zippy:
the new complex isnt complete is it?

Alex:
New complex isnt complete yet.

Main station was burnt along with a few vollies cars i believe. One shed with equipment saved, boat also saved. All appliances apart from an old bus were already out at the job, so no damage to them.

Darren:
Luckily they are building a new one, but still a pain in the butt, feel sorry for the vols who lost cars, hope they are looked after, and thank goodness the boat was saved, they do a lot of work with that.

Baxter:
Just got back from the Lincoln fires but from what I saw as we did have a nosey at the unit or whats left of the unit. The shed that they have all the equipment in was saved along with the fuel shed.

Unfortunately the main building where the offices, comms , catering and training are was completely gutted. Even the bus that was outside looked like it was hardly affected. Yes vehicles were lost in the fire but they seem to be only the ones that they have in their RCR play area.

In the same complex was the regional operation (communication)unit shed that was gutted. The Vol's from Lincoln were certainly putting on a brave face when I saw them yesterday.
