ARA and NER to Honor Equipment Theft Prevention Personnel

October 24, 2006 • The American Rental Association, Moline, Ill., is accepting nominations for the ARA Insurance Services/National Equipment Register Award. This award honors an individual who has helped the equipment rental industry fight back against equipment theft.

 

The third annual ARA Insurance Services/NER Award will be presented during a special ceremony at The Rental Show, ARA's annual convention and trade show taking place Feb. 7-10, 2007, in Atlanta, Ga. The ARA Insurance Services/NER Award was established to highlight heavy-equipment theft recovery and the hard work of law enforcement personnel to prevent theft and recover stolen equipment. The award recognizes a sworn law enforcement officer or a civilian support person who has performed exceptional service to the rental industry through the recovery of rental equipment or through theft-prevention initiatives.

The recipient will be afforded VIP guest status at The Rental Show, including round-trip travel and accommodations and a commemorative plaque. In addition, a $1,000 grant will be awarded to the recipient's department to aid in equipment theft investigations.
