The dry heat has also created brush that is most vulnerable to burning and can easily get out of control. If you must burn, please apply for a no cost Open Burning Authorization, however, we encourage individuals to find alternate ways to eliminating yard waste. EQPB welcomes any comments and concerns that the public may have and can be reached at 488-1639/3600 or via email, [email protected]. In doing so, we help each other continue our efforts in helping to protect our pristine and fragile environment of Palau.
