NVFC Award Nominations Due Jan. 15
Nominations for the National Volunteer Fire Council’s annual Fire Prevention Award are now being accepted. Established in the memory of volunteer firefighter Marc Mueller, the award recognizes a volunteer firefighter whose outstanding achievements in the fire service and community best exemplify the philosophy of fire prevention.
Nominees for the award should be individuals who have made a major contribution or have played a key role in a significant accomplishment in the field of fire prevention and/or to have demonstrated superior efforts in establishing goals for the protection of the public through a continuous promulgation or enforcement of outstanding fire prevention, fire protection or life safety programs in their communities. Consideration also is given to those who may have developed or enforced a specific piece of legislation resulting in increased fire safety; developed or taught a specific program resulting in public awareness of the need for a fire-safe environment; or who have investigated, arrested, or supervised an enforcement effort which led to the conviction of a penal or fire code violator.
The deadline for nominations for the award is Jan. 15, 2007. Additional information and nomination materials are available on the NVFC Web site.
