It is time again for fire prevention. The firefighters all look forward to this time of year, where we can make a lasting impression on our children. We will be appearing at the Huntsville Elementary Schools during the last week of September through the last week of October. |

Walker County Community Wildfire Protection Plan
Wildland fire is an integral component of the ecosystem of Walker County. For millennia low intensity fires have maintained the health of our native forests and grasslands. Changes in land use and fire suppression have significantly altered the composition and structure of native vegetation in these fire prone ecosystems. In many situations this risk associated with a wildfire can be dramatically reduced through actions such as public outreach, fuels reduction around structures, and improving communities' infrastructure.

During Fire Protection Month, we would like to offer things to think about when you are landscaping around your home or building outdoor structures near or around your home. Firewise would like to help inform you on ways to stay safe. For more information, and to look at the Firewise brochure, please click here.
