Checking for risks on anniversary of Charleston tragedy


The West Ashley site of the deadly 2007 blaze will be open for people to pay their respects on June 18.

The idea has been shared with the fire service nationwide to show the importance of fire prevention inspections, of pre-planning and showing the families of the fallen firefighters their sacrifice has not been forgotten.

The site where nine city firefighters died in 2007 may be transformed into a memorial as well as a training and education facility.

At the end of the day I have but a single comment to make.

The NIOSH investigators made numerous suggestions after spending months probing the operations.
