Don't
Blow It...
Fireworks
are illegal on State and Federal land. Check with your local fire
department about any restrictions in your area and follow these
tips:
Use
legal fireworks from licensed outlets.
Use
fireworks outdoors, in a safe area away from fields, forested lands
and buildings.
Use
fireworks in parking lots, driveways and gravel or dirt areas.
Follow
directions carefully, with close adult supervision.
An
adult should always light fireworks - keep matches and lighters
away from children.
Let
fireworks cool and soak them in a bucket of water before disposing
of the debris.
Never
point or throw fireworks at people or animals.
Use
extra caution in dry weather, and never use fireworks when it is
windy.
If
you start a fire on public lands because of your fireworks, you
could be held liable for the cost of putting the fire out!
