Free work gloves provided with burn permits

Keep Idaho Green is targeting debris burners with their 2010 Fire Prevention/Education Campaign "Think - Before You Burn."

Escaped debris burning is one of the leading causes of human caused wildfires in Idaho.

High quality cotton work gloves with an educational safety message printed on them will be given away with every burn permit issued in Idaho during the burn season starting May 10 through Oct. 20, the time period when a burn permit is required.

Keep Idaho Green, a wildfire prevention organization comprised of the Idaho Department of Lands, the USFS, the BLM, the Nez Perce and Coeur d'Alene Tribes and local fire departments, are making this free giveaway product available for all Idaho agencies issuing burn permits as a combined and coordinated fire prevention education effort.
