The Fire Marshal's Office serves as a liaison between county government
and the volunteer fire departments to assist with the budget process,
standards compliance, fire reporting, and training/education. One person
is maintained on an On-Call status 24 hours per day and is available to
respond to any county incident to assist with Incident Command as well
as investigating fires in order to determine origin and cause.
The Fire Marshal's Office enforces the open burning laws which prohibit the burning of any refuse materials.
