Let's give a big shout out to Dave Skibinski. Hope Skibinski He blessed our department with donating his time and painted a recently donated trailer from the Cherokee Nation. This trailer will serve our community as an emergency response trailer and will carry additional equipment to affected areas due to storms or other related incidents.
Thank you Dave for your generosity!

OFS responded to 6 new wildfires burning 150.2 Acres Thursday 9/17.

21% of the wildfires that Oklahoma Forestry Services has responded to during September are attributed to Equipment Related Causes. Mowing and hitting a rock, off-road equipment use in dry vegetation, running on flat tires… Please take a few minutes to consider the following fire prevention tip:


Equipment use: Improper use of equipment can easily ignite a wildfire. Whether it’s a lawn mower, chainsaw, weed-eater, grinder, tractor, trimmer or another power tool, taking precautions is essential.

Time of Day and Conditions: Avoid using equipment during the hottest part of the day when conditions are driest. Mow before 10 a.m. and always avoid windy or dry conditions. Remember that lawn mowers are for lawns, not for dry weeds or grass, as metal blades can spark fires when hitting rocks.

Maintain Equipment: Regularly check and repair your equipment to prevent sparks. In wildland areas, spark arresters are required on all portable gasoline-powered equipment. Keep the exhaust system, spark arresters and mower in proper working order and free of carbon buildup.

Safe Equipment Use: Before conducting any grinding or welding operations in wildland areas, secure a permit and ensure you maintain a clear 10-foot radius. Keep a shovel and a fire extinguisher ready to use.

Vehicles: Vehicles and trailers can inadvertently start fires, especially when chains are involved. Follow these guidelines to ensure your vehicle use does not contribute to the risk of wildfires.

Secure Chains: Practice safe towing. Use appropriate safety pins and hitch balls to secure chains and ensure they are not dragging, which can create sparks.

Remove Dragging Parts: Ensure your vehicle is properly maintained, with no parts dragging on the ground.* Tire and Brake Maintenance: Maintain proper tire pressure to prevent driving on exposed wheel rims that will throw sparks. Regularly check and maintain your brakes.

Avoid Dry Areas: Do not drive or park on dry grass or brush, as hot exhaust pipes and mufflers can start fires. Regularly check the undercarriage for debris that could ignite.
