For City of Elmira Residents There seems to be some confusion on tree branches and debris from the storm. The City of Elmira DPW and Buildings and Grounds have been removing downed trees and limbs from the storm and have removed a majority of the trees that have fallen in the roadways. The crews are not going around to pick up piles of branches that are put into the Right of Way by residents and any remaining debris is the homeowner’s responsibility to dispose of. To assist with this the City of Elmira’s Compost Facility will be open extended hours for Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Thursday and Friday the hours will be 7:00am-5:00pm and Saturday from 8:00am-5:00pm. Residents can also take Branches to the County Facility at 715 Blostein Blvd which is open Thursday and Friday 9:00am- 7:00pm and Saturday 8:00am-5:00pm #cityofelmira #elmirany #stormcleanup #compost #compostfacility #citynews #elmira

Tasmania is no stranger to devastating bushfires, with our state having one of the highest fire fatality rates per person in Australia. Evidently, the importance of active land management cannot be overstated. While there are guiding principles behind bushfire readiness, there's no one-size-fits-all solution. The type of tree work a property requires depends on its BAL Assessment, which should be carried out by an accredited assessor. From there, a qualified arborist can conduct a number of augmentations such as separating canopy and creating fire breaks. However, in addition to the inherent value that trees bring to a property, well-managed trees can play a crucial role in safeguarding your home against embers and radiant heat. Striking this balance is an important area of discussion, and we would love to hear your thoughts.

Rain season is here! One of the major advantages of our Green Rolls are their ability to reduce storm water runoff, which translates into lower burdens on sewer systems. It can lower costs by eliminating the need for rain caching cisterns and similar equipment commonly used to manage storm water. And high rainwater retention capability helps reduce the number of accidents caused by heavy rainfall.

Firestorm 2003 is the report and recommendations following the Okanagan Mountain Park fire. Starting at page 24 are the discussion and recommendations on preventative measures with heavy emphasis on fuel load management. Earlier this year, the City of Kelowna showed how effective this can be when the Knox Mountain fire - which threatened a number of residential neighbourhoods close to the city centre - was quickly brought under control. It’s time - actually way past time - to review the 2003 report and honestly assess and action the gaps in implementing its recommendations. #wildfires #forestmanagement #climateactionnow https://lnkd.in/geVc_Pqj
