“Georgia-Pacific is proud to present both the Zachary Fire Department and the West Feliciana Fire Protection District One with these awards. The grant will not only help purchase much needed equipment to keep our communities safe, but it also serves as a token of our appreciation,” said Keith Wahoske, plant manager for the Georgia-Pacific Port Hudson facility. “In many cases, these units are first responders in an emergency, and we honor their commitment to serve.”
