High Fire Danger

High When the fire danger is "high", fires can start easily from most causes and small fuels (such as grasses and needles) will ignite readily. Unattended campfires and brush fires are likely to escape. Fires will spread easily, with some areas of high-intensity burning on slopes or concentrated fuels. Fires can become serious and difficult to control unless they are put out while they are still small. Mowing or edging generally be done in the morning. Mowing, edging, or clearing dead vegetation should be limited to the morning hours. Having a nearby source of water may be helpful.

High Fire Danger

Engine 31

Engine 31 is a Type 1 fire engine that was purchased in 2002 at an approximate cost of $450,000. This unit carries 750 gallons of water. The on-board pump is rated at 1,500 gallons per minute. This unit was the last of the top mounted pump controls that were purchased. The LMFD switched to the side mounted pump control to shorten the wheel base and overall length of its fire engines.
