Dominica has seen an increase in bush fires over the past month and according to official reports from the Fire and Ambulance Service, they have responded to over 200 fires to date.
Fire Chief Josiah Dupuis said, “It’s not just about the frequency of calls but the fact that you are likely to have to respond to multiple calls at the same time…it does put tremendous strain on our resources, from personnel to our equipment and yes we do need additional equipment. There is always going to be that need”.
The fire chief also said that even with more equipment, the department might still not be able to respond to every fire.
However, he anticipates that their needs will be met soon.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
