RISK MANAGEMENT

Risk Tip:

Fireworks Safety

July 1-7, 2008

We would like to remind everyone that the use of fireworks within Provo City are restricted. Fireworks are restricted in:

  • the eastern bench areas in Provo
  • generally east of Canyon Road in north Provo
  • Timpview Drive
  • 900 East
  • Slate Canyon Drive
  • State Street in south Provo
Fireworks are also prohibited in Provo within 20 feet of combustible elements such as dry vegetation and homes or fences. Parks are also off limits, but the city has designated areas within Sertoma Park, Exchange Park, Fort Utah Park and Footprinter's Park for fireworks use. Fireworks are prohibited on BYU’s campus.

We encourage you to attend a public fireworks show instead of using consumer fireworks. However, if you decide to use consumer fireworks, please read all instructions and use the utmost safety.
