Next week is Wildland Preparedness Week and the Bureau of Land Management and wildland partners will be spreading the word all month to make fire prevention a top priority, especially as fire activity increases. “The Bureau of Land Management and its wildland fire partners need your help to prevent wildfires this summer,” shares the announcement. “The public plays a valuable role in preventing wildfires. The national average of human-caused wildfires comprises 85% of all wildfire occurrences every year. Most of these fires can be prevented.” Always take extra precautions, follow the rules with burns, fireworks, and target shooting. Be especially aware of your activities in dry conditions.
