January - March
Now is the time
to prepare for Spring Fire Season. This
statement has different meanings for different
people. For Forest Fire Wardens, now is the
time to assess your fire tool cache and PPE and
determine what if anything needs to be repaired
and/or replaced then get together with your local
Forest Fire Specialist Supervisor or Fire Forester
and get what you need to ensure your crew can make
an aggressive, but more importantly, safe attack on
each and every fire this Spring.
For
homeowners, now is the time to begin assessing what
projects will need to be accomplished around your
house to make it Firewise. Are there leaves on
your roof, do your rain gutters need to be cleaned,
or are there tree branches that overhang your roof?
These and many other things should be looked at and,
when weather permits, corrected as needed to ensure
your home and family are safe from an approaching
wildfire.
