The Clinton Fire Department plans to take an unusual precaution on New Year’s Eve in hopes of heading off any potential Y-2-K troubles that may be inside the electronics of the fire engines and other vehicles. Clinton Fire Chief Russ Luckritz (LUKE-ritz) says the engines will be started before midnight and left running as a precaution until after midnight, shut off, then restarted. Chief Luckritz says the department also has equipment to generate power and is working with the Clinton Police Department to have a fuel tanker truck on stand-by for New Year’s Eve.
