CSC will be attending the 1st Annual Crime Prevention/Safety Fair in Yountville, CA on December 12th. The fair is hosted by the Napa County Sheriff's Problem-Oriented Policing Program and the Town of Yountville.

CSC will be hosting a booth at the event and educating attendees on copper theft, which mainly impacts commercial buildings and construction sites, and photovoltaic theft, which specifically targets the solar panel installations at many businesses and public sector agency buildings.

Copper thefts and Solar panel thefts have been on the rise all over the country lately, and more specifically, these problems have been plaguing the Northern California region within the past few years. Within the Napa Valley and Bay Area regions, solar panel thefts have been a main focus for several wineries and school districts, who have sustained tens of thousands of dollars in lost assets and property damage as a result of thieves ripping off the solar panels from their unprotected buildings.

As more solar panels and copper wiring become stolen, and the problem continues to grow, businesses and government agencies being targeted for the thefts are searching for security solutions specifically designed to help protect their solar panels from thieves.

CSC's Snitch Security System is one of the few answers that exist today for stopping solar panel theft. Uniquely designed to protect anything, anywhere, anytime, The Snitch is a burglar alarm system that's fully capable of stopping copper thefts and solar panel thefts and providing 100% protection.

For those companies and government agencies that have made the investment in solar panel installations, and/or have been targeted for copper theft, practicing risk management and implementing a security solution to protect your investments is probably a good idea. The team at CSC is here to help and will be at the Crime Prevention/Safety Fair this weekend to answer any questions you may have.

The event will be taking place at the Yountville Community Center from 12-4pm and we invite you to attend!
