Sen. Yaw's TV Report: Highlighting the New Energy Technology Education Center, Montgomery, PAHARRISBURG – This month's 'Conversation with Senator Gene Yaw' focuses on the new Energy Technology Education Center, located in Montgomery, Pennsylvania. The Energy Technology Education Center is a joint venture between Lycoming County, Penn College and natural gas industry partners to provide training opportunities for emergency and first responders in the event of a natural gas-related incident. "The Energy Technology Education Center is the first of its kind in Pennsylvania," said Yaw. "Equipping our emergency responders with the essential skills needed in a crisis situation is paramount. The Center will provide a unique and state of the art facility for providing this important training." Response crews assembled for a simulated lightning strike, potential methane leak and multiple injuries at a natural gas well field. Guided by real-time radio transmissions – with authenticity heightened by raging flames, active hoses and frighteningly realistic mock injuries – volunteer firefighters and other emergency personnel prioritized and conquered each of the challenges that greeted their deployment. The program will air on:
