Atlantic City Electric Donates Smoke Alarms for Safety

Utility’s Emergency Services Partnership Program Assists Camden County Fire Marshal
 
Atlantic City Electric donated 3,080 smoke alarms to fire marshals in southern New Jersey as part of the company’s Emergency Services Partnership Program. The donation provided a much needed resource for county fire marshals who give the smoke alarms to New Jersey residents who need them.   
 
Tom Reilly, Atlantic City Electric Public Affairs Manager Tom Reilly attend the Freeholder Board meeting on January 26 to present the smoke alarms to Freeholder Rodney Greco, liaison to the Department of Public Safety.
 
“We are proud to partner with Atlantic City Electric to provide this lifesaving program,” said Freeholder Greco.  “Everyone should make sure that their home has a working smoke detector and check their batteries.”
 
The smoke alarm donations included 80 units that are designed to help protect special needs individuals, specifically those who are hard of hearing. These smoke alarms emit a bright strobe light and high decibel audible alarm to alert individuals of the presence of smoke. The remaining 3,000 are regular smoke alarms.
