Wildland Fire Danger is HIGH

 New Mexico has been in a drought situation for some time now and 2009 is shaping up to be a very dry year.

This means that the threat of willdland fire is SERIOUS.

"We can’t control lightning, but we can control our actions" said Gilbert Zepeda, deputy regional forester for the U.S. Forestry Service:

Here are some important fire do’s dont’s:

             1. DON’T toss cigarette butts out vehicle windows.

            2. DON’T  pull vehicles over onto grassy road shoulders because undercarriage heat from exhauset systems can spark fires.

            3. DON’T burn trash and weeds.

            4. DO Follow no-burn rules in our parks.

            5. DO maintain a 30 foot burn proof perimeter around you home.
