For information about what to do when a wild fire is in your area please review the following as it may help provide reassurance about how to prepare
and what to do.
In an emergency call 9-1-1. If you, a family member or others are in immediate danger or your property
is threatened by fire call 9-1-1 immediately.
The threat of wildland fires for people living near wildland areas or using recreational facilities in wilderness areas is real. Dry conditions at various
times of the year and in various parts of the United States greatly increase the potential for wildland fires.
Advance planning and knowing how to protect buildings in these areas can lessen the devastation of a wildland fire. There are several safety precautions that
you can take to reduce the risk of fire losses. Protecting your home from wildfire is your responsibility. To reduce the risk, you'll need to consider the fire
resistance of your home, the topography of your property and the nature of the vegetation close by.
