OCT and OVA Continue Support for Fire Prevention Efforts Amid Summer Risks
As the summer season progresses and the risk of wildfires increases, Orange County Transport (OCT) and Orange Valley Association (OVA) are intensifying their efforts to support institutions involved in prevention and rescue operations. The organizations are focused on comprehensive preventative measures and promoting awareness during this heightened period. A key component of their ongoing support involves providing specialized firefighting equipment to pilots operating aircraft with the Directorate for Prevention and Rescue (DPS).
These donations, totaling advanced firefighting gear, include helmets, gloves, and specialized footwear designed to enhance the safety and resilience of pilots during high-risk fire missions. The equipment aims to improve operational safety and protect personnel involved in critical firefighting activities. Furthermore, OCT is implementing its second annual fire prevention campaign, running under the slogan “Keep what you do!
For fire, small.” This initiative underscores the importance of responsible behavior and emphasizes that even small actions can significantly contribute to fire prevention. The combined efforts of OCT, OVA, and the DPS highlight a sustained commitment to robust firefighting support and proactive prevention strategies throughout the summer months. These organizations recognize the critical need for continued vigilance and resource allocation to mitigate wildfire risks.
