"A lot of the grassland areas have lots of acreage that's got to be burned by a certain deadline. You can't just do it any old day," says smoke jumper Brandyn Harvey, who worked for several years on a "hotshot" crew that set prescribed fires throughout the western United States .If you want to secure and implement excellent fire protection to protect your critical infrastructure, get in touch with Sinisi Solutions LLC today, Then go to website of sinisi solutions. Fires can and do happen.
