Mitigation Tip- Propane tanks. Clear plant materials from around propane tanks, which should be placed well away from your home. Replace wooden fencing around tanks with non-flammable fencing materials like chain link or stone or brick walls. #WildfireMitigation #BLMIdahoFire

Something you probably don’t know… @BroncoSportsFB head coach Spencer Danielson has a famous brother! His younger brother Ethan is a @BoiseFire firefighter. They look so much alike, don’t they? #danielsonbrothers #boisestatefootball

@BLMIdaho crews, along with @BoiseFire and other local agencies, worked hard during the initial attack on the #ValleyFire in Boise's backyard. Firefighters have made good progress so far, with 50% containment. Fighting fires close to our cities and communities takes teamwork 🔥

Your $60,000 monthly cooling bill isn't an energy problem. It's a construction defect disguised as normal operating costs. Texas institutions are bleeding taxpayer dollars without realizing someone else should be paying:

Attention all drone operators and the general public, A drone has been spotted over the active Valley Fire. This is a serious violation of both BLM and FAA regulations. Flying drones over wildfires is illegal and extremely dangerous.
