High Fire Danger

High When the fire danger is "high", fires can start easily from most causes and small fuels (such as grasses and needles) will ignite readily. Unattended campfires and brush fires are likely to escape. Fires will spread easily, with some areas of high-intensity burning on slopes or concentrated fuels. Fires can become serious and difficult to control unless they are put out while they are still small. Mowing or edging generally be done in the morning. Mowing, edging, or clearing dead vegetation should be limited to the morning hours. Having a nearby source of water may be helpful.

Urban Search & Rescue (USAR)

The LMFD maintains a highly trained nucleus of specialized rescue personnel and equipment.

Responses involving building collapses, complicated vehicle accidents with people trapped, and other industrial emergencies can require specialized tools and training. The LMFD has trained members that can perform these complicated rescues. These rescues are time, personnel, and equipment intensive. Many of these tools carry an additional expense that require extra training to be used and maintained.

In addition, Rescue 30 provides hazardous materials response personnel and equipment to meet the dangers exposed by a growing commercial economy.
