CODE OF BEHAVIOR
WITH
OUTDOOR FIREBRANDS

1. Burn household trash only in a metal or cinder block container on
an area cleared to bare soil.

2. Burn fields and brush piles only in the late afternoon when the
wind is low and after a 5-foot fire-break has been plowed around the
field.

3. Break matches and crush smokes before discarding.

4. Use car ash tray for smokes and used matches when traveling in a
vehicle. Don’t pitch them out the window.

5. Clear the area around a warming or camp fire before lighting it.

6. Extinguish all warming and camp fires when you leave. Be sure all
fires are Dead Out.
