Firemen say everyone should be reminded that it’s spring wildfire hazard season, bringing with it outdoor burning restrictions.
Between Feb. 15 and April 30, the spring forest fire hazard law prohibits burning between the hours of 6 a.m., and 6 p.m., if the fire is within 150 feet of any woodland, brushland or fields containing dry grass or other flammable materials.
Over the past couple of weeks there have been several field fires in the area, some threatening homes and other property.
