Fire Restrictions Lifted

Golden Valley Fire Department will be lifting fire restrictions in the fire district as of Monday September 19, 2011 at 8:00 a.m.

Sufficient moisture has been received throughout the Golden Valley area making fire restrictions no longer necessary. Captain David Martin greatly appreciates the public's cooperation in helping to minimize the number of human caused wildfires within the fire district during this summer's drought conditions.

Residents are still required to obtain a Burn Permit when conducting a burn and must follow EPA regulations prohibiting the burning of any household trash or waste. Camp fires do not require a permit, however residents are asked to give the fire department courtesy call prior to enjoying their camp fires.

For information on open burning requirements call (928)565-3479, or visit our website at www.gvfdaz.com  

Remember only you can prevent wildfires.
