It was a busy afternoon for us yesterday (3/25)! At approximately 2:20pm, Belmond Fire was dispatched for mutual aide with Rowan and Dows for a diesel tank that was on fire.
Later, we began our yearly prescribed burns of CRP acres. We have a lengthy list to accomplish this year, so we will be very busy of the next few weeks handling those.
