January, February, and March are in the rear-view mirror and although the first two months of the year were par for the course, in March we incurred 31 reported fire incidents, the second highest March for fire incidents since 2016. Of the 69 reported fires in the first quarter, 32 of the incidents occurred at waste, paper and plastic operations, 22 metal, 6 organic, 5 C&D, 3 chemical, and 1 rubber. At Fire Rover we eliminated 34 fires in the first quarter, over half of those occurring in March.

As we head toward the summertime spike in fires along with the expected economic growth of a post-pandemic year, we need to stay diligent in our fire prevention programs. Over the past year our operators have been forced to focus on PPE and training to help employees from contracting COVID, but as our vaccines take hold and we more toward the new normal, we need to get back to our focus on fire prevention, training, and investments in fire elimination solutions.

In order to maintain physical distancing and safety guidelines put in place by our institution and state to protect our community against the spread of COVID-19, there is additional information we want you to know before you schedule your visit to campus.
Mask Up, Mounties! Face coverings are
required in all campus buildings, on the campus tour, and outside when physical distancing cannot be maintained.
We ask that all visitors to campus do a morning self-evaluation for symptoms of COVID-19, just as all of the EOU campus community is doing. If you do not feel well or are experiencing one or more of the symptoms, please call to cancel your visit for the day and reschedule.
