NORTH VIEW FIRE DISTRICT – 782-8159 – 315 E 2550 N

It’s becoming that time of year again, the weather is warming up, the snow is mostly all melted and our yards are starting to come back to life. As many of you clean your yards and gardens I would just like to remind you of the process of open burning.

The open burn season for Weber County is March 30-May 30 during the spring months and there will also be a possible burn season in the fall during the time of Sep. 15-Oct. 30. Just like previous years you will need to obtain a burn permit prior to igniting a burn. You can obtain a burn permit either by telephone, internet or through the mail.

 Internet The open burn permit application can be completed online at www.airquality.utah.gov. Completing this form online is the easiest and fastest way to complete the open burn permit application. An electronic copy of the application is automatically submitted to the county or municipal fire authority upon completion and is kept on file at our office.  Telephone An applicant can call the Department of Air Quality at 801-536-4000 and complete the open burn permit application process over the phone. A DAQ inspector will ask the applicant for the required information and complete the application in just a few minutes.  Mail A hard copy of the application may be completed and submitted by mail to DAQ for electronic processing. To request a hardcopy of the open burn permit application, contact DAQ by phone at 801-536-4000. Note: It may take up to 14 days from the date of request to receive an open burn permit if a hard copy is submitted for processing. On the day that you want to burn you will need to check to make sure that it is a green burn day and that the clearing index is over 500. You can either check our website each day at www.northviewfire.com, call Weber Dispatch at 801-395-8221, or by logging onto the Utah Air Monitoring website at www.airmonitoring.utah.gov. Just as in the past we will still have

the authority to require extinguishment of the fire in cases wherethe smoke is becoming a nuisance to neighbors and if burning rules aren’t being followed. If you have any questions you may call us at (801)782-8159

 

COMMUNITY EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM

North Ogden is preparing to participate in this year’s Utah Great Shakeout disaster response exercise. We have found that after most emergencies, communications are among those activities in need of improvement. To help alleviate this, North Ogden’s Community Emergency Response Team will be hosting a neighborhood canvas and communications exercise on the evening of April 17th, 2014. We are encouraging residents to get involved, regardless of whether you have or have not had CERT training. We are seeking residents who are willing to canvas their neighborhood for mock disaster notices that will be put out. These residents are then asked to report their findings to the city’s emergency operations center.

This is an excellent opportunity for neighborhoods to practice their disaster response, and to be able to coordinate the neighborhood’s and city’s response. The goal in any disaster is to be able to respond promptly, protect life and property, and to make the community whole as quickly as possible. Being able to communicate and work together greatly enhances the recovery time after a disaster. Anyone interested in participating is asked to contact Paul Rhoades at the North Ogden Police Department, 801-782-7219, or by email at prhoades@nogden.org.
