As we gear up for the fall, one of the most important fire-protection activities a property owner can do is the removal of brush to help lower the chances of a blaze doing significant damage to a house and other structures.
This is especially true during Santa Ana wind events when temperatures rise, humidity plummets and strong winds blow, particularly in places like Carbon Canyon.
So, this Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., the Carbon Canyon Fire Safe Council, which has done much important coordination with programs to reduce the risk of wild-land fires, is offering its fall brush drop-off program.
Bring your newly cut brush to the location on Canon Lane, north of Carbon Canyon Road, adjacent to Fire Station #4 and volunteers from the Council will assist in unloading and placing the material in a roll-off bin provided by Chino Hills Disposal through a donation by the City of Chino Hills.
This program is limited to Carbon Canyon residents on the Chino Hills side only. Hope to see you there as we work to minimize the risks and effects of fire in our canyon!
