New Fraser Valley CSSE Chapter Inaugurated!

The new Fraser Valley chapter of the Canadian Society of Safety Engineering (CSSE) received their inaugural charter at Newlands Golf Course in Langley yesterday evening.

The new chapter was created by the Lower Mainland chapter, with the help and support of the national headquarters of the CSSE in order to answer the needs of the growing number of members and prospective members from the Fraser Valley.

Peter Sturm, National Chair of the CSSE presented the charter to Lonny Bouchard the Chair of the new chapter.
