Washington, Nowata and Osage County fire departments were very busy on Veteran's Day this year by dealing with multiple fires around the area. Reports say that nearly 46,000 acres were burned across the three county area. During the Monday morning Washington County Board of Commissioners meeting, District 1 Commissioner Mitch Antle said they are compiling information to create quicker, less expensive response times in the future.
To begin with, Antle said they will seek information from the fire chiefs association and local dispatchers.
