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.

Water Tender 31

Water Tender 31 was purchased in 2001 at an approximate cost of $250,000.00. This unit serves as a "Fire Hydrant on Wheels". It carries 3,000 gallons of water, and can pump water at 1000 gallons per minute if needed. Water Tender 31 is an important part of our response model. It is available to respond to any fire that is outside of hydranted areas. This includes grass and other vegetation fires, building fires, large vehicle fires. This unit also supports other agencies as part of a reciprocating mutual aid plan.
