The Salida Fire Department and the South Arkansas Fire Protection District have joined together to offer the Ranch Hand Controlled Burn Program.
The two will join forces to ensure safe ditch clearing and slash pile management. The program is designed to work alongside community ranchers, offering the monitoring of weather conditions and providing a dedicated fire crew to oversee the controlled burns. This service is being offered at no cost.
To take advantage of the Ranch Hand Controlled Burn program and schedule your controlled burn, call Captain Chris Bainbridge at 530-1427.
