CPV is proud to have contributed $4,800 to the Patton Fire Company No. 1 to help fund their Quick Response Service (QRS) program. This donation helped secure certification from the Pennsylvania Department of Health in September 2024.
The QRS program is critical for providing immediate medical care in Patton and Chest Springs, where response times can be delayed by long distances—sometimes up to 23 miles—before an EMS unit arrives. CPV is committed to supporting first responders and is honored to help enhance emergency services in our host communities.

CPV Fairview Energy Center Hosts Jackson Elementary School Students
Prior to its operation, students from Jackson Elementary School were given special access to the CPV Fairview Energy Site for a wetlands tour.
“Fifth-graders were here last year, and they got to see the first development and the project getting started. They’re coming back this year, getting to experience the progression as it goes. We hope to bring them back in middle school when the plant is up and running,” said Patty Burkey, a science teacher at Jackson Elementary School. Read more in the WJAC coverage here.
Oxford Volunteer Fire Department Practices High-Angle Rescue Drills At CPV Towantic Energy Center
Oxford Volunteer Fire Department Practices High-Angle Rescue Drills At CPV Towantic Energy Center
CPV Towantic Energy Center hosted the local Oxford Volunteer Fire Department for a visit to the energy project site on Saturday, November 5, 2016 to practice the life-saving high-angle rescue drill, a technique used to rescue injured or otherwise incapacitated persons at high-degree slopes.
The fire department successfully performed a total of three practice rescues, two using an on-site crane and one using their ladder truck that was purchased with funds contributed to the town by the energy project in 2007. The rescue scenario consisted of a worker being injured on the steam turbine table top, approximately 40 feet above the ground. Photos were taken of the drills for use as future training aids for the fire department.
“We appreciate the Oxford Volunteer Fire Department’s commitment to working closely with the CPV Towantic Energy Center team and look forward to our continued work together to ensure the highest levels of safety for everyone who works and lives near this state-of-the-art facility,” said Colin Kelly, CPV Towantic Asset Manager Representative.
“This was a very productive exercise not only for our department, but for the strong relationship we’ve built with the CPV Towantic Energy Center project team,” said Scott J. Pelletier, Fire Chief of the Oxford Volunteer Fire Department. “This kind of on-site training is invaluable for ensuring our staff is properly trained to ensure safety in any potential situation.”
The Oxford Volunteer Fire Department expressed appreciation for the use of the site and joined CPV Towantic Energy Center staff for lunch after completing the exercise.
