Page 2, Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, March 12, 1986 Crime prevention program now on in Terrace Bay The Terrace Bay Police Force's Operation Provi- dent is now entering its se- cond phase with the distribution of outdoor stickers for businesses in town which warn potential thieves that items of value inside have been marked for police identifications. Police Chief Russ Phillips explained that the first stage of the program was the actual identifica- tion of valuable material by engraving a special number on such equipment. The crime prevention program entered its second phase last week as Opera- tion Provident stickers were given to the manager of Berglund Industrial Supply Company on Mill Road in Terrace Bay. The company was one of the last to have its equipment marked with its own uni- que sequential identifying number, and the first to receive the access point decals. According to Const. Ron Fewer, the operation has been in existence throughout all of Canada for a number of years. 'Operation Provident was. developed from the concern expressed over the annual hundreds of millions of dollars from businesses, government of- fices, schools, and other facilities, (such as) chur- ches, community centres, and municipal buildings," Const. Fewer explained. In addition to deter- rence, the operation: can also assist in the recovery of lost or stolen property, he added. For further information onthe program, contact the Terrace Bay Police Force Chief Russ Phillips or Const. Fewer at 825-3232.

At this time you will also receive an Opera- tion Identification Record Sheet to record. serial numbers and model numbers of those items you choose to mark, that already have © serial numbers. Once your items have been marked, and you are" finished with the engraver, . on its return to the Police Office you will be given sufficient Operation Iden- tification decals to place at your main entrances to in- dicate that your valuables have been marked. In Terrace Bay. we are going to use your Social In- surance Number as a number to mark your valuables.
