Forms
The Blue Ribbon Arson Committee has developed Program Rules, Guidelines and an application for use in
conjunction with the Reward Poster. A new feature is the Online Reward Application. The application is
designed to assist the nominator in preparing the application and providing the necessary details to
BRAC. The more details received, the better the story is told. The reward decisions are based on the
circumstances of each individual and fire.
The Rules and Guidelines are available to be printed should you need. The Guidelines are for the posting
of the Reward Sign. The building owner must sign the Guidelines giving permission for the posting of the
Sign. If the building owner does not want the property posted, be creative in getting the information out
to the public. Use media, pass the information out in the neighborhood – do what you can to get the word
out. BRAC does have small versions of the Sign that can be used to pass out that do not require the
property owner’s signature on the Guidelines.
NOMINATIONS CAN BE MADE BY FIRE DEPARTMENT PERSONNEL, LAW ENFORCEMENT, PROSECUTORS OR INSURANCE PERSONNEL ONLY. Any questions, please
contact
the Executive Secretary of BRAC.
