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 (530-752-9468 or 752-5417 to schedule a time beginning November 26 until December 14, 
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 3 
through December 14.  

There will be no charge for this service at either location, but only live trees 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.
