Happy pending Fourth of July!

Fireworks are banned in Portland, and for very good reason. Fireworks have caused many  fires in Portland (you can read about them if you scroll to the bottom of this page) and a firework-caused fire killed three people in 2021.

If you observe firework use in our community and wish to report it, please do not call 911 (unless you also observe an injury or a fire has started). Instead, use the electronic form linked on this page.

May you have a fun and safe holiday!

Joan, EPIC Chair
