| 2010 AIR QUALITY / WOODSTOVE REGULATION CHANGES |
| On September 17, 2009 the Missoula County Air Pollution Control Board passed revisions to 5 chapters of the air pollution regulations. These were then ratified by the City Council and the County Commissioners. On May 14, 2010 the MT State Board of Environmental Review approved the regulation changes and the changes are now in effect. Information regarding these regulations can be found here. |
| VOLUNTEERS! |
| GPVFD needs volunteers! Need is especially great in Bear Creek and Clearwater/Sperry Grade, where our long-range plans call for small satellite stations to serve those areas. You can be a Fireman (structural and wild-land), a Medical Emergency First Responder ... or BOTH! This is an important, worthwhile activity, and a real service to our community. For more information, call any of the officers listed here, or send an e-mail to Chief Doug Hall. |
HOME SIGNS ... STREET NAMES |
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT EMERGENCY PERSONAL BE ABLE TO LOCATE YOU IN AN EMERGENCY! In an emergency, good directions are critical. "Past the blue house over the hill on the left of the brown house" just doesn't hack it! Proper road signs and house number signs can help us find you and your house anytime day or night to render aid. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE HOME ADDRESS AND STREET SIGNS IN YOUR AREA. Home signs are easy! We can make them for you ... just call the Firehouse and leave your name, home address, and your phone number. Or, you can send us an e-mail with the same information. We ask for a $5.00 donation for each sign. Home address numbers are assigned by the County Survey Office at the County Court House. Street names must be approved by the County Survey Office so that there are no duplications. If you have an approved street name, you can contact GPVFD for a street sign also; we have some funding available for installation of street signs. |
