Summer Fire Safety Tips
If you’re planning on using fireworks this summer, make sure you know the laws in your area. Each state determines their own laws regarding where and how fireworks can be used legally. You can look here to see what the laws are where you live. Make sure to also check your state’s website to see if any regulations have been adjusted. During certain circumstances, such as a drought, the government may ban all fireworks to prevent them from sparking wildfires.
