Cooling Your Coals Do not put hot coals or ashes in your carts Hot ashes or coals can cause severe burns and fire damage to properties. Follow these safety measures when disposing of them.
• Use metal cans no more than 30 gallons in size with tight-fitting metal lids.
• Fill cans with hot ashes only halfway so they cool quickly and are light in weight.
• Secure metal lids on cans to prevent spread of sparks or embers.
• Check, stir, and water ash cans for several days until completely cool.
• Avoid adding hot coals on top of cool coals by using a set of cans that can be used sequentially.
• Check to be sure that ashes are completely cool before placing them in compost cart.

No Need to Water Your Yard YetSpring-like weather doesn’t mean Spring-like watering. With short days and chilly nights, your lawn knows it’s still winter. Keep those automatic irrigation systems off. Prioritize trees with a deep soaking if necessary.
Drought regulations remain in effect. Napans have hit our 20% water savings target since July 2021. Let’s keep up the good work!
