Attention Property Owners, Landowners, and Farmers,
In light of the recent wildfires across Nebraska and the ongoing dry conditions throughout the Midwest, the Modale Fire Department would like to offer our assistance in planning and conducting controlled burns within our fire district.
Our department has coordinated, performed, and assisted with numerous controlled burns over the past several years. These operations provide valuable, real-world training for our members in areas such as planning, fire behavior, and the safe operation of vehicles and equipment.
While fire behavior can be unpredictable, having the proper personnel, tools, and equipment in place before a controlled burn begins greatly reduces the risk of it becoming uncontrolled. Preparation and coordination can make the difference between a successful burn and a dangerous situation.
If you are considering a controlled burn or would like more information, please feel free to reach out to us here on Facebook or contact any member of the Modale Fire Department.
Stay safe,
Modale Fire Department
