Residents in the immediate path of a brush fire should follow the orders of uniformed public safety officials.
Location specific evacuation orders are usually provided door-to-door or via loudspeaker by Law Enforcement personnel.
Residents in high danger areas should remain vigilant for such direct, personal and focused contact. We always recommend that residents of high-risk locations be prepared to evacuate on short notice.
Those who may become endangered but are not in the immediate path of advancing flames, are encouraged to stay tuned to local media, especially news radio.
In the greater Los Angeles area, *live* radio interviews with fire officials is routinely broadcast on:
AM 1070 - KNX (listen now)
We encourage Los Angeles residents to find and "save" news radio stations on their battery-powered portable and vehicle radios.
In a Wildfire, Knowledge Is Power!
Tell A Friend!
