As part of the observance of Fire Prevention Month, John Hay Management Corporation, with its procured services, Mckleene General Forest Care, and Gardeners, is conducting fireline cleaning operations in key identified areas like the Yellow Trail and portions of barangays Hillside, Lower Dagsian, and Scout Barrio, including the Voice of America. These key locations are important in protecting the John Hay Forest and nearby communities, including the flora and fauna found therein.
This ongoing activity aims to minimize forest fire risks and protect the natural environment. By maintaining these firelines, JHMC will be able to create a barrier to slow, if not prevent, the spread of fire or any potential fire hazards. This strategy will not only safeguard the forest but also ensure the safety of the residents living nearby.
Moving forward, JHMC believes that community engagement and awareness play a significant role in augmenting this forest fire prevention effort. The cooperation of all stakeholders involved can ensure that these natural spaces inside the camp remain healthy and verdant.
