That night at the Mount Ephraim Board of Commissioners meeting, Andrew Gilmore said that at 8:20 a.m. the fire alarm sounded.

It prompted volunteer fire-fighters to rush to the Lambert Avenue Fire Station, located near Mary Bray.

While the firefighters attempted to park their vehicles and get the fire trucks out in a timely manner, they were slowed by the crowds of people blocking the entrance, apparently caught up in the excitement of the first day of school.

Commissioner Gilmore reminded residents to be aware of their surroundings, especially when emer-gency vehicles are responding to a possible life or death situation.

TRENTON – The first phase of a cleanup of radioactive tritium that leaked from the Oyster Creek nuclear power plant last year and into two aquifers below the facility will begin immediately, with a goal of pumping the tritium contaminated water out of the ground to avoid any potential contamination of potable water supplies, Commissioner Bob Martin announced today.

The Exelon Corp. has agreed to start pumping efforts this week on two monitoring wells which are in the Cape May and upper Cohansey aquifers, and also has agreed to expand that effort to a third contaminated location by early October.
