fires; and

and improper use such as overcharging, using off-brand chargers without safety
certification, or exposing batteries to damage can result in fire or explosion; and

prevent environmental hazards and reduce fire risks in the home and community; and
WHEREAS, Twin Falls County first responders are dedicated to reducing the
occurrence of fires through prevention, safety education, and community outreach; and
