[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 4237763, member: 14646"] My neighbor who runs the cattle said he reported it to the fire department but not sure if it was the Shamrock Volunteer or Bristow FD. Apparently he was to notify all neighbors who share a fence line as well but that was never done. No smoke in the homes luckily. Our trucks that were parked near where the fire trucks were working smelled like smoke for a couple days. Our main home had a lot of smoke around it and blowing by but no smell inside. YEah, my neighbor told me when we first moved in when he saw me brush hogging my 5-6 acre pasture between the Hwy and our main house to be sure to also mow the "ditch" between the Hwy and our fence line just because of the reasons you mentioned above. We have a fair amount of cattle and oil field semis and private people towing a ton of trailers past our place. Neighbor said there have been plenty of pasture fires started because of them in our 'hood. Not sure 100% how it works but the Fire Chief said he was going to charge the responsible landowner about $10K for this and if he didn't pay he would lien his property. Not sure but the Chief was going to send us a contract for the year that was about $150 for the Shamrock FD services. Since they did such a nice job and saved our bacon we will donate a chuck of money to their department as a thank you. It's the least we could do. [/QUOTE]
