Safety Tips for Returning to Fire-Affected Areas

As you prepare to return home after a fire evacuation, your safety remains our top priority. Please keep the following tips in mind to ensure a safe and smooth return:

• Follow Official Guidance: Only return to your property when authorities have declared it safe to do so. Conditions can remain hazardous even after the fire is contained.
• Inspect Your Surroundings: Be cautious of unstable structures, downed power lines, or weakened trees that may pose risks.  There may be uncleared hazards in the roadway.
• Wear Protective Clothing: sturdy shoes, gloves, and a mask to protect yourself from debris, ash, and airborne particles.
• Mind Health Hazards: Avoid direct contact with ash, which may contain toxic substances. If you have respiratory conditions, limit your exposure to ash and smoke, and use an N95 mask if necessary.
• Check Utilities before use: Do not attempt to restore power, gas, or water until a professional has inspected the systems. Report any visible damage or strong odors like gas to utility providers immediately.
• Document the Damage: Take photos and notes of any damage before beginning cleanup. This will be important for insurance claims or assistance requests.
• Emotional Well-Being: Returning after a fire can be overwhelming. Take breaks, reach out to loved ones, and consider talking to a counselor or support group if needed.
   

Your safety and resilience are what matter most. If you have questions or need assistance, local resources and authorities are here to support you every step of the way.
