Basic rules for building bonfires and burning waste 1. Bonfires may only be built in designated areas. 2. Ensure safety: the bonfire should be located away from buildings, trees, and other flammable materials. 3. Before lighting the bonfire, prepare the site: clear it of debris and dry grass. 4. Never leave the bonfire unattended, even for a short time. 5. When burning waste, ensure that the materials being burned do not release hazardous substances into the atmosphere. 6. After using the bonfi
Bonfires should be built under the condition of ensuring continuous control over the burning and smoldering process;
the site for building bonfires must be cleared of flammable substances and materials, as well as dry vegetation;
it is necessary to have a container with water, sand, or a fire extinguisher readily available to quickly extinguish the flames;
the burning process must be carried out in such a way that flames and sparks do not reach flammable elements of buildings, outbuildings, and structures, or stored flammable substances and materials;
when leaving, it is necessary to extinguish the coals until smoldering completely stops.
It is prohibited to:
burn dry vegetation, stubble;
build bonfires on peat soils or under tree canopies;
use flammable and combustible liquids for igniting bonfires and charcoal (except for liquids specifically designed for ignition).
Another spring issue is nature lovers. When going for a "shashlik" (kebab), people choose picturesque places.
However, when leaving, people forget to extinguish the bonfire, leave broken glass, and throw cigarette butts into the grass. Any foreign source, such as a carelessly discarded cigarette butt on a field with dry grass, can provoke fires over significant areas. The wind carries the fire over long distances, burning everything in its path.
To ensure that outdoor recreation is truly safe:
use a barbecue or grill only under the condition of ensuring continuous control over the burning and smoldering process;
do not use flammable liquids for ignition;
do not leave unextinguished bonfires, matches, cigarette butts, or glass bottles in recreation areas (in the sun, they act like magnifying glasses, focusing sunlight and igniting grass).
Do not walk past burning grass! If it is impossible to extinguish the fire by yourself, report fires to the Ministry of Emergency Situations at 101 or 112.
