Quincy Firewise is advising residents of American Valley to notify dispatch before burning piles to prevent unnecessary fire department responses. The Quincy Volunteer Fire Department has been receiving calls mistaking residential burns for wildfires. Residents are encouraged to call dispatch at 530-283-6300 with their address prior to burning debris. This helps ensure the fire department is aware that no response is needed for these controlled burns. Additionally, residents should check if it is a permissible burn day by calling 530-274-7928 and find out if permits are required. Taking these steps can conserve valuable fire department resources and help the community.
