Suburban Wildfire
If you live where there is an abundance of
plants and other vegetation that can easily
catch fire, you may be vulnerable to wildfires.

Be Ready

  • Have a action plan in place in case you
    need to evacuate.

  • Report to friends, family and church
    members on how you are doing.

  • Get a 72 hour kit with  emergency
    supplies & protect your property from
    wildfires.

Stay Informed

  • Local authorities may not immediately be
    able to provide all the information you
    need to know what do to. So, you should
    watch TV, listen to the radio or check
    the Internet often for official news and
    instructions as they become available.
  • Do not return to your home until local
    authorities say it is safe. Use common
    sense and exercise caution.

Protect Your Home

Keep your roof, gutters, and yard free of
flammable debris such as dried leaves, dead
branches, and garbage. Stock fire-fighting
tools such as buckets, chain saws, rakes, and
shovels in a convenient and accessible
location.
