EMERGENCY SERVICES THANKED FOR EFFORTS IN BATTLING CQ BUSHFIRES

Member for Gladstone Glenn Butcher was joined by Fire and Emergency Services Minister Craig Crawford last week as the pair visited Gladstone Fire and Rescue Station to thank emergency services staff and volunteers who responded to fires at Deepwater National Park and Mount Larcom during the 2018 Queensland bushfires.

Mr Butcher said the Deepwater and Mount Larcom fires were supported by Queensland Fire and Emergency Services staff and volunteers from Gladstone, Calliope and Boyne Island stations and several rural brigades within the area.
