Fire Prevention Tip

Spring is brush fire season. Conditions are dry and grass fires can be started from a variety of sources such as a discarded cigarette or even sparks from a train. Grass fires can move quickly and grow large in a matter of minutes, often threatening homes and businesses. Dial 911 immediately to report any smoke or fire you encounter when outside.
