The #CrookVMP is also a great training opportunity for Copter 404 to utilize an aerial ignition device called the Plastic Spherical Dispenser (PSD) System. A safe and effective way to burn in remote areas.

Please maintain awareness of all possible ignition sources. This is a critical time to focus on prevention. #OnlyYou Make Smokey Bear proud!

With the anticipated power shutdown, please be very cautious if you are using a generator. Operate in a clear area to avoid causing a fire and away from any openings into your home that could allow carbon monoxide poisoning. #OneLessSpark

We are seeing an uptick in vegetation fires recently caused by discarded hot ashes. Now that cool weather is on us, and those wood stoves and fireplaces are getting used, please don’t forget to ensure your ashes are cold before discarding them. #OnlyYou #UseWater #OneLessSpark

The burn suspension in the Tuolumne-Calaveras Unit will be lifted tomorrow at 8 am. Please follow the terms of your burn permit. Don’t have one? No problem - just stop by a CAL FIRE station to get one (they are free). Thank you for being fire safe. #OnlyYou #OneLessSpark

#DontLetThisBeYou With recent rains, the burn suspension has been lifted, but you still must be careful. The fire escaped the control of the landowner (no clearance around the pile) and burned approximately 1/2 acre of grass. #DontBurnWhenWindy #StayInAttendance #UseCaution
