Use Legal Fireworks

With the Fourth of July just around the corner, fire officials are reminding people if they choose to use fireworks to use those that are legal.  Mid-Columbia Fire and Rescue District Chief Bob Palmer says in Oregon any kind of fireworks that can fly through the air or travel more than 12 feet horizontally are illegal.  Use of illegal fireworks in Oregon is a Class B misdemeanor.  Palmer adds legal fireworks can still cause fires, so if you use them be in an area with no dry grass or debris that can be sparked.
