Local Facilities Managers Connection Fire Prevention and Awareness Information A Partnership

Prepare Protect Preserve Risk Danger Loss Our Goal….Together Prepare Protect Preserve Risk Danger Loss Potential for Harm Actual Harm Sustained Vulnerability to Harm

Awareness Education Commitment Pro-activeness What would be 4 important considerations to you as facilities managers related to fire prevention and protection? Awareness Education Commitment Pro-activeness

Our Topics Home Hash (honey) Oil Extraction Mission Kitchen Fire Common Commercial Fires Causes and prevention Fire Protection Systems CRR – Community Risk Reduction Q & A

Home Hash Oil Extraction Extracting cannabis oil (THC) from the plant Several ways this is accomplished Most common way is with the use of a solvent Most popular is BUTANE Butane dissolves the THC in the form of fats and oils Liberates the most potent portion of the cannabis plant Typical setup includes triple refined butane aerosol cans, glass or metal tube, cannabis, catch basin, heat source

Home Hash Oil Extraction The problem with Butane is that it is a highly flammable gas with a very small explosive range – this range can easily be reached Add a competent ignition source and BOOM! Vast majority of extraction explosions take place at residential homes Cannabis extraction in residential homes IS ILLEGAL - PERIOD

Largest extraction explosion?? Springfield Oregon

What to look for Large quantities of butane – full and empty Concealed areas where extraction could take place “But I have a marijuana card and am licensed to grow” Multiple drying ovens, chest freezers/refrigerators

Mission Fire Started in the kitchen Fuel source – soybean oil Ignition source – Spontaneous Ignition (Combustion) Time Frame – Approximately 2 hours Damage – significant Fire alarm system detected the fire Fire grew rapidly

What Is Spontaneous Ignition (Combustion)? Webster defines "spontaneous ignition" as: Self-ignition of combustible material through chemical action as oxidation of its constituents Fire Prevention Engineering defines spontaneous combustion as "the culmination of a runaway temperature rise in a body of combustible material, which arises as a result of heat generated by some process taking place within the body."

Mission Fire Outcome Awareness, education and training on Spontaneous Ignition Kitchen rag management practices improvement To include metal rag containers Laundering practices evaluation and improvement Cooking oil evaluation and change

Top 4 Common Commercial Fires 29.3% - Cooking related fires 11.5% - Intentionally Set In bathrooms, Trash bins, Sheds, Garages, Portapotty 9.2% - Careless Acts/Human Behavior Space heaters too close, Discarded cigarette butts, open flame, some situation involving electrical 9% - Heating related - central heating unit, water heaters, wall and space heaters Regular maintenance, fire safety inspection

Fire Protection Systems First and foremost – Life Safety Systems Gives time for people to escape Minimize property damage Must be maintained regularly Must be treasured and loved

Community Risk Reduction Program - CRR Process to identify and prioritize locals risks in our community, followed by the intergrated and strategic investment of resources (emergency response and fire prevention) to reduce their occurrence and impact. First priority – have working smoke alarms in every residence. Partnered with American Red Cross, Oregon State Fire Marshal’s Office and the Springfield Elks Club

Community Risk Reduction Program - CRR American Red Cross and The Springfield Elks have sponsored and helped fund this endeavor Eugene Springfield Fire crews will check and install smoke alarms in homes during EMS responses if appropriate Oregon residential fire fatalities, smoke alarms were present in 49% of cases but only 27% of them were working at the time of the fire. If you would like to support this effort please contact Assistant Fire Marshal Amy Linder – Eugene Springfield Fire Marshal’s Office – 541-682-8428
