It's spring and people are cleaning their yards and burning brush, etc. Brush Burning While MOST of the townships around here do NOT have written rules for burning there are some things to consider and do! You should check with your township BEFORE burning! Do NOT burn after dark! DO stay where you can see the fire! Do NOT burn rubber, oil, plastic, etc. Only brush, leaves, etc.! DO keep a rake nearby to push and pull burning material back into the burn pile! Do NOT make a smoky fire that blows into your neighbors yard! (Get the fire burning hot BEFORE you dump a lot on it. If it starts smoking, wait until it gets going again.) DO have a charged line ready! (Make sure you have a hose ready and the water is on and nozzle working) (It's too late to find the hose, connect it, turn it on, and get to the burn pile AFTER the fire has started to spread!) Do NOT burn on a windy day! (It will blow smoke into your neighbors yards AND there is a danger of it spreading!) DO call the Chester County Fire Board, (610)933-8968, BEFORE and AFTER burning. (This is so the fire company {probably} won't be called out in full force to extinguish your fire!) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
