Control Burn ? During A Burn Ban?

Friday, March 23, 2013/ 8:20 PM
26605  Texacotown Road

Tasley, Onancock, Onley and Melfa fire units responded to a structure fire behind a residence.

Once units arrived it was determined that the burning of a barn behind a residence was a control burn.

Units returned to their stations and no injuries were reported.


PLEASE PASS THE WORD ON:

EFFECTIVE  IMMEDIATELY   IN  ACCOMACK  COUNTY
 
Controlled Burn Ban
The Accomack County Board of Supervisors approved a request made by Accomack County Sheriff Todd Godwin to authorize a temporary ban on controlled burns because of the arson spree plaguing the county.
 
The board will reconsider the ban on a month-to-month basis.
