Fireworks should not be thrown in the air, as they may land where they can start a fire or burn someone. If a fire is accidently started w hile using fireworks, call the Fire Depart ment without delay. All fireworks can be dangerous if not used with caution.

Don't let fireworks turn your holiday into tragedy. Last year we had several fires caused by illegal and uncontrolled fireworks. By Tribal Council Resolution 6492 dated 6 2883, only fireworks sponsored by the Fourth of July Committee and those approved by the Fire and Safety Chief are allowed. Only sparklers, caps, snakes and other small smoke producing devices are allowed. No other fireworks are approved. The approved type must be used underadult supervision and must be used in a "Fire Safe" area (pavement, sand, gravel, bare ground, greengrass or other places cleaned of burnable materials). Un authorized use will result in confisca tion of the fireworks and may result in prosecution. We are approaching a critical, high fire danger period. Please do all you can to make this Fourth of July season safe for everyone! V4 it
