The fire department seemed to be very professional and did a great job of preparing this house before the burn. I didn't happen to notice any yards covered in ash or debris but maybe i just wasn't looking close enough! Thank you for all your hard work firefighters we the community love youAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8310124704019321251.post-76221546723490698172010-07-16T10:24:05.844-07:002010-07-16T10:24:05.844-07:00I'd like to point out some unfortunate and pro...I'd like to point out some unfortunate and probably unintended impacts of this training. Toxic pollution in the form of burned asphalt shingles, potentially PVC pipes, and potentially any unremoved asbestos has rained down on the neighboring properties where horses and chickens range, and organic fruit, vegetables and herbs are grown. Large chunks of fire debris and a coating of ash now covers and contaminates these areas. Why would ORCA would have permitted the burning of this house without assessing the negative health impacts on the surrounding neighbors?<br /><br />Fire fighters need realistic training, but not at the expense of contaminating and polluting neighboring properties and affecting human health.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
