Carelessness has no boundaries. No one can predict when or
where the next tragic fire will happen. That's why it's
important that we all do our jobs and practice fire prevention
in every way.
Make it your business to look for fire hazards... in the home,
on your property and where you work. And when you're
traveling, keep an eye out for smoke, and if you see it, report
it.
This year, with heavy growth of wild grasses and economic
crops, the fuel for fire is abundant. Be extra careful when
traveling the wide open spaces and forest lands of Eastern
Oregon because the FIRE DANGER IS HERE NOW.
Carry the phone numbers on this page with you and tape an
extra copy to your phone book or shop wall. The people on the
other end of the line are ready to bring a crew into action on
moment's notice. For added safety, put a shovel, axe and
small bucket in your car's trunk or pickup. REPORT ALL
FIRES IMMEDIATELY.
And, while you're thinking about it, make a spot check
around your home. ..here's a few tips.
Are lumber and poles, brush and trash, cleared away
from buildings?
Are useless old sheds or buildings torn down?
Are hoses readily available around the yard
outbuildings?
and
Are combustibles stored safely, in cooler areas? (This
means approved containers for gas and oil not glass jugs.)
Is equipment properly equipped with mufflers or spark
arrestors? (Farm tractors, power saws, recreational
vehicles, and to a lesser extent, cars, often times are the
cause of rural fires. WATCH BEHIND YOU when operating
power machinery.
Are YOU ready, if a fire breaks out?
