Firework Restrictions

With the fourth and twenty-fourth of July coming up, and with all these wildfires raging common sense is more important than ever.

Because near several of these fires Fireworks have been found there is a chance they were started by fireworks.  With it being so easy for fires to start due to very large amounts of dry vegetation all you need to start a fire is a spark. Quite a few Fireworks have "EMITS SHOWERING SPARKS" written somewhere on the label.  This means that it might and probably will shoot sparks in the air and when those sparks get back down to the ground if they land on dry vegetation that could cause a major wild fire, which with all these wild fires going on we really don't need any more. 
Because of all the wild fires there are several new firework restrictions in place. we have them below for the fourth of July. "JULY 1-3 AND 5-7 FIREWORKS ARE ALLOWED FROM 11:00 a.m. TO 11:00 p.m. ON JULY 4 FIREWORKS ARE ALLOWED FROM 11:00 a.m. TO MIDNIGHT."  fireworks SHOULD NOT be done near ANY dry vegetation. and PLEASE remember to use common sense when you use fireworks.
