Hazardous materials

A fire engine from Ilfracombe attended an incident at a local holiday park alongside a Hazardous materials and environmental protection officer regarding concerns around some incorrectly mixed chemicals.

On arrival crews got to work with 2 breathing apparatus, 1 gas detector, 1 thermal imaging camera, and positive pressure ventilation. 

Crews created a cordon around the risk area, monitored readings and gave advice to onsite staff. 

Ambulance personnel have checked over the potential casualties and have given them the all clear.
