unfortunately the fire not only consumed homes but almost all of of
beautiful forests were gone when it stopped its path of destruction.
The emotional effects will never be completely healed and Julian and
Cuyamaca will never be the same. After 30 years of firefighting in our
community I want to share a few thoughts with you to give you and
your home a better chance of survival in the event of a fire.
1 .First and foremost is a "Defensible Space", Cal fire requires a 100'
defense zone around your home, as you know this may be adequate
in most cases but slope and fuel (vegetation). types might warrant
even more, Cal Fire has some very, informative handouts to assist
• Checking • Savings you in creating this space around your home.
• Home Equity • Business Banking 2. It's this time of year that gardens and flowers are done for the
........ i season, potting soil in flower beds and pots is a very receptive bed
for embers, so if you have them close to your home, move them away
t~ 2033 Main St., Julian I 765-2765 i from the house until next growing season.
Member FDIC k i . 3. Firewood, is another issue that firefighters have to deal with
during a fire, keep it away from you home at least 30', and cover it
with a flame resistive canvas tarp. If you keep it on your porch or right
next to the house, have the minimal amount and keep it in a wood in a
NorrMtY I)IJBLI( covered box, so embers can't ignite it. In the event that there is a fire

4. Propane tanks should have bare soil around them for ten feet,

and build up in your rain gutters and on the roof of your home and
under decks, being extremely flarj2mable, you need to'be diligent in

Deadline is Friday Noon for the next weeks issue
on where your water sources are and instructions on how to operate
any pumps you might have. You can also have the locations of and
any "special" hazards there might be, this could be from a 50 gallon
drum of gasoline or maybe a hand dug well in the back yard. Have
your hoses out and ready to use, I can't tell you how many time a
garden hose had made a difference.
7. Move all flammable materials away from your home, this would
include outdoor furniture (wood and plastic), Close your windows, if
you have time cover the vents ino your attic do so, make some pre cut
covers in the winter and mark them for the spot they will be installed,
in th event you don't have time to install them leave them in a location
that they can be seen, if time allows firefighters might be able to utilize
them.
8. Have a plan, some residents have their important items packed
and ready to go in a moments notice if they are evacuated. Sometimes
you will not have an opportunity to pack before you leave, or you may
only have a few minutes to gather what you can and go, keep your car
keys in an established location where they are readily available. Make
a list of what you will take with you if you must leave right away (also
note its location), photos and important documents are typically the
first thing people take. Part of your plan should include and friend or
neighbor, that in the event of your absence, thet will know what to take
and what they need to do to ensure your important items and pets
are cared for. The key for this plan to work effectively, is to practice.
Take some time to run through a "what if" scenario, give yourself
different time frames from minutes to hours, document the items you
will take, what you need do outside of your home to include the above
mentioned preventative measures that time allows. The main reason
for these drills is to give you a perspective on the time it takes to load
your car with belongings, gather your pets and be 'able to leave well
before the fire arrives.
So using the above information, you will increase the chances of
your home surviving a fire, and have a good plan on what to do if
evacuated, and when you leave, knowing you've done everything you
could do for yourselves and your home.
One last item rd like to cover is people that have made the decision
to stay and ignore the evacuation orders. Our state allows you to
stay if you choose to do so, in my career I have heard the 'Tve lived
here for years and seen other fires here and rm staying", the biggest
problem with this statement, is that fire conditions are never the same
and what happened last time might not compare to this time. During
