FLOOD PREPAREDNESS

WILDFIRE PREPAREDNESS

Wildfire Preparedness Tips
Clear a 30 to 50 foot wide safety zone around your home or business. Keep trees and shrubs pruned so vegetation is away from buildings. Remove dead vegetation and dispose of rubbish and debris.
Mow your grass regularly.
Make sure fire trucks can get to your house and outbuildings in an emergency.
Keep your chimney in good condition, and ensure that it has a spark screen.
Have enough garden hose to reach all the structures on your property.
Keep fire tools (shovels, buckets, rakes, and saws) handy.
Have a ladder that can reach your roof.
Observe burning bans announced by local government. Don't burn debris outdoors when it is windy and never leave a fire unattended.
Soak grill or fireplace ashes in water for a day before disposing of them.
Stack firewood well away from your home and, if possible, uphill of it.
As vehicle exhaust systems are often hot enough to ignite a fire, don't drive or park on high grass that is dry.
