The county wide burn ban has been lifted. If you must burn make sure that you call YCOM Fire line at (503) 472-3344 to determine if it is a burn day. As always we encourage you to use an abundance of caution when burning and make sure to have a hose and some sort of shovel nearby
As a reminder their is currently a burn ban in effect. This means that absolutely no outside burning is allowed until further notice. Small warming fires and outside charcoal grills are permitted as long as safety precautions are taken.
Today Amity Fire District had a special guest for drill. Chris Mills with Fire Rescue Equipment Northwest stopped by to show us some extrication techniques.

Due to the temperature expected to reach into the 90’s and the presence of strong winds expected. The county fire chiefs have issued a burn ban that will go into effect Thursday at 8:00 am. If you have any questions you can call the Amity Fire District business office.
Do you have a defensible space? Every year thousands of acres of land burn in Oregon. Having a good defensible space may just protect your home during one of these devastating fires. Take a look at firewise.com for some great information on preparing your home for fire
