"Aa we have witnessed in Arisons and Colorado, one careless mistake is all it takes to ignite a blaze that can quickly grow out of control, threatening lives and homes, said Governor Leavitt Utahns must use extreme caution whileerdoyingoutdoor recreational and holiday activities. The governor announced a fireworks ban on all state lands, appealed to local jurisdictions to enforce fireworks ordinances, and called upon residents to exercise extreme caution during this extremely dry and high-ris-k wildAre season. Parents were asked to make sure their children comply with the law by not using illegal fireworks. "Illegal fireworks nose a serious safety problem not only to the people who use them, but also to others, said Gary Wise, State Fire Marshal. "Every year, they cause unnecessary injuries and property loss." Last summer, 833 fires burned 92,284 acres, costing the state and counties nearly $3 million. "Southwest Utah currently faces the most severe danger due to the drought, said Joel Frandsen, State Forester. "Already, 6,000 acres have burned costing over $1 million.
