Despite
the major setback of the Safety Expo being postponed by a
month due to flood emergency priorities, e-safe2007 was successfully
re-staged in July at Rosehill Racecourse. Congratulations
to Integral Energy for getting it all together and re-assembling
the expo competitions, seminars and exhibits and the 50 organisations
involved in exhibiting, presenting, adjudicating and managing
various aspects of the event.
The Water Directorate seminars and competitions proceeded
with a few minor hitches but many thanks to the six teams
that were able to return to support this important and informative
OH&S event. The competing teams were from Wellington Shire
Council, Dubbo City Council, Orange City Council, Tweed Shire
Council, Sydney Water and Hunter Water.
Congratulations
goes to the winning team from Dubbo City Council and to the
runners up from Sydney Water and Hunter Water. Trophies were
awarded to the first placed team and individual prizes were
awarded to all members of the first three teams. The Executive
Committee believes that the exercise raises the awareness
of electrical safety and highlights the danger of the link
between the electrical industry and the water industry.
