Pyros Beware: How to Stay Safe
Thanks to West Jordan Fire Department, The Home Depot, Lowe's, and Paul Davis Restoration, you can pick up a FREE water bucket when you purchase fireworks in West Jordan City this year. Buckets will be available starting June 24, at firework stands and tents located in West Jordan. While supplies last.
Each 5-gallon bucket will have safety instructions to help reduce injury and fire risks-just fill the bucket halfway with water to smother all used fireworks. (Limit one bucket per household.)

These and other non-Class C fireworks are always illegal in Utah:
