The Cumberland County Fire Department is hosting a safety presentation to educate residents on emerging hazards, specifically focusing on the proper use and storage of lithium-ion batteries. As these batteries become more common in home energy systems, understanding their risks is critical for public safety. The event will also cover forest fire preparedness and the installation of smoke and carbon monoxide alarms. Residents will learn how to maintain their properties to reduce wildfire damage and ensure emergency alarms are placed for the fastest possible response.
