If you burn the waste from FireSmarting, please be considerate of the neighbours! Only burn on days when the Venting Index is "good" on the day of burning and "good" or "fair" the following day. Woody debris that is 3 inches in diameter or smaller can be taken to the Foothills landfill for composting free of charge.
