The Bureau of Land Management sent Equipment Shop employees to the BFX Fire Apparatus factory in Weatherford, Texas to perform comprehensive vehicle inspections on new fire vehicles. Over the course of three days the equipment shop inspected eight Type-Six Engines and three Command Vehicles. This process is done to find and address any discrepancies between the received product and the specifications established in the contract before the vehicle is put into service.
The Equipment Shop takes on inspection projects many times a year in addition to research and development, modifications and repairs, and other fire vehicle related duties.

I live just a few blocks from the White House and it's amazing to see how much has changed during the quarantine period, following the death of George Floyd. Just outside "The People's House" we now have Black Lives Matter Plaza and a permanent police presence nearby.

365 Day 200. Travelled to Carmarthen today, first journey of more than about 10 miles in months. There happened to be a BLM march, so we just had to join in. The Picton monument (or Picton’s Prick as we always referred to it when I was a student there) is a monstrous celebration of particularly nasty piece of work. As governor of Trinidad, Thomas Picton enslaved, murdered and tortured. His favourite moto was “Let them hate, as long as they fear.” We must remember what he did, yes, it’s history, it cannot be unwritten, but celebrate and commemorate, and call this man a hero...No. Just no.
The first full week in May kicks off Wildfire Preparedness Week nationally. The Bureau of Land Management and it's wildland fire partners share prevention messaging thorough the entire month of May to help educate the public and partners as fire activity increases.

Two autopsies found Floyd's death to be a homicide.[12][13] Chauvin was initially charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter, to which was later added second-degree murder; the three other officers were charged with aiding and abetting second-degree murder.

Walnut Street School invited parents and students to cover their windows with Black Lives Matter artwork on Thursday, June 4th. One parent covered the school with black and "BLM" balloons. And after one student dropped of his poster, he asked, "when will we come back to school?" With fingers crossed, one educator said, "Hopefully in August."
