NATIONAL WORK ZONE SAFETY WEEK IS APRIL 15-19
A lit second of driver
distraction can turn a
highway work zone into a
death zone. According to
the Federal Highway Ad-
"Sadly, mothers and fa-
thers are killed every year
while working to make
our roadways safe," Trans-
i)ortation Secretary Mike
Hancock said. 'q C:e hope

The past three years
in Kentucky, 11 people
died and 471 people were
injured in highway con-
struction and maintenance
work zones. That under-
scores the importance
of the Kentucky Trans-
portation Cabinefs work

drivers to think about the
consequences of speeding
and not paying attention in
work zones."
The Transportation
Cabinet will invest in hun-
dreds of highway projects
again this year. Tradition-
ally, the highway construc-
tion season kicks off in
April. Cabinet engineers
and contractors work co-
operatively to design proj-
ects and work schedules
that minimize dehys and
crashes.
"Work zone safety
concerns all of us," said
Bill Bell director of the
Kentucky Office of High-
way Safety. "Every driver
shares the responsibility
for keeping our roadways
safe. By working together,
we can end the needless
loss of life in highway
work zones."
The cabinet asks motor-
ists to practice 10 work
zone safety tips:
1. Expect the
ed.
2. Slow down.
3. Don't tailgate. Keep
a safe distance between
vehicles.
4. J eep a safe distance
from workers and equip-
ment.
5. Pay attention to signs.
6. Obey road crew flag-
gers.
7. Stay alert and mini-
mize distractions.
8. Keep up with the traf-
fic flow.
9. Schedule enough
time and call 511 or go to
www.511.ky.gov for Ken-
tucky traffic and travel in-
formation.
10. Be patient and stay
calm.
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
Provided by your
Bath County Emergen-
cy Management Office
Mild spring weather
can have a down side
after a hard winter. On
sunny days people tend
to take advantage and
do outside chores, which
may include burning de-
bris left by last winter's
ice storm. These fires can
be, and often are danger-
ous, even deadly.
During a two-day pe-
riod of good weather, two
separate deaths resulted
from debris fires. A man
died after his clothing
caught on fire, and a fatal
heart attack came from
efforts to put out a de-
bris fire that had spread
to a house. A third death
came not long afterward.
On the other side of the
state, an uncontrolled de-
bris fire caused a gas line
to explode, killing the
man tending the fire.
These tragedies point
to a larger problem, warn
officials of the Kentucky
Division of Emergency
Management, the Fed-
eral Emergency Man-
agement Agency and
the Kentucky Division of
Forestry. Wildfires large
and small tend to follow
storms that leave woody
debris. Uncontrolled
burning of debris has
caused many injuries and
ruined many acres that
are not publicized like
the high-profile cases de-
scribed above.
"In early spring," said
Leah MacSwords, direc-
tor of the Kentucky Divi-
sion of Forestry, "most
Vegetation is dead, brown
and highly combustible.
There is also very little
green vegetation to serve
as a barrier for spread-
ing wildfire. We try to
remind people of these
conditions and we strong-
ly discourage them from
conducting any type of
outdoor burning."
As the weather warms
and, recovery from the
ice storm progresses,
remember the do's and
don'ts of debris burning:
When
When the weath-
er's wrong, don't burn.
If it's windy, sparks can
fly. If it's dry, flames can
spread.
When a burn
ban is in effect, heed it.
Kentucky is under a burn
ban each year in the dri-
est months. Sites within
150 feet of wooded areas
are allowed fires only in
evening hours, between
6:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m.
The yearly ban periods
are Oct. 1 through Dec.
15 and (now in effect)
Feb.15 through April 30.
Also, check local ordi-
nances for any special re-
strictions.
What
Have the proper
equipment ready. Be
ready to drown the fire
with water from an ad-
equate source or bury it
with a shovel.
If possible, have
additional assistance with
yOU.
How
Before burning
contact your local fire
department and advise
them of your intent.
Choose a burn
location that is not under
trees or other overhead
hazards.
Be sure it is not
near utility lines, some of
which may be buried out
of sight.
Separate debris
into small, manageable
burn piles.
Locate burn
piles an adequate dis-
tance from one another,
and from structures.
Make sure a ra-
dius of at least 10 feet is
cleared around a burn.
Stay with the
fire. Watch continuously
until it is completely out.
If the wind rises
or the fire seems to be
spreading, put it out im-
mediately.
