As people around the world watch in horror at the devastating impact of the California wildfires, Atlantic County Executive Dennis Levinson wants to allay any fears among Atlantic County residents that their homes and properties are at risk. He explained that county officials reached out to representatives of the State Fire Warden and were told that our risk is currently very low due to the recent snowfall and the fact that unlike California, New Jersey routinely conducts controlled burns to provide protection from wildfires by eliminating underbrush and leaf litter that can fuel forest fires.
