RE: Mandatory Flameproofing of Yuletide Trees

The attached fire regulations are offered in the sincere hope that your holiday 
season will be safe, as well as enjoyable.  Please pay particular attention to 
the regulation that requires flame-retardant certification for all yuletide trees 
and other cut greenery displayed in indoor areas frequented by employees or the 
general public on the Davis campus and at UCDHS.  

To comply with this regulation:

Davis campus units need to call the Operations & Maintenance Department:
Paint Shop (530-752-5417 or 752-9468) to schedule a time beginning November 27 
until December 15, for flame-retardant treatment and certification.  

At UCDHS, flameproofing and certification can be obtained at the Facilities 
Support Services Building (916-734-5667) from 7:00 A.M. until 3:00 P.M., Monday 
through Friday, from December 4 through December 15.

There will be no charge for this service at either location, but only live trees 
and greenery intended for use within University facilities will be treated.

Compliance is also strongly urged within student residence areas on campus.  
Student residents may bring trees to the Paint Shop for treatment during the 
times mentioned above.

If you have any questions regarding compliance with these regulations, call the 
Davis campus Fire Department: Fire Prevention Office at (530)
752-1236 or the UCDHS Fire Prevention Office at (916) 734-3036.
