MAYS LANDING, N.J. - Through its Emergency Services Partnership Program, Atlantic City Electric recently donated 2,400 10-year long-life fire safety alarms to fire marshals in the eight counties the company serves. The donation of 300 smoke alarms per county provides much needed resources for county fire marshals who give the smoke alarms to New Jersey residents who need them.

"Atlantic City Electric continues to support public safety entities such as fire service, law enforcement and emergency management through our Emergency Services Partnership Program through donations like this," said Vince Maione, Atlantic City Electric region president. "We're proud to partner with New Jersey's county fire marshals in our service territory to help keep residents safe."

Lowe's Home Improvement supplied the smoke alarms at a reduced cost to help support this effort. Since 2000, Atlantic City Electric has donated 28,020 smoke alarms to fire safety officials in southern New Jersey.
