The following will contain the list of effects. Ground level, low level, mid level, high level, and aquatic are the general headings.

Site Location


Best sites are where crowd faces east with sufficient distance to maintain the seperation distance between the crowd and the effects; which is 100 meters(100yds) plus a fall out zone recommended to be 200 meters(200yards) between effects and end of range. Which would look like a clear field of at least 300 meters(yards) distance. Shorelines on any type body of water are premium sites as require just the 100 meter(yards) distance from crowd to effects as the water would qualify as the fall out zone. Other features that would enhance, as a bridge to suspend waterfalls from as well as features that could be considered hazards, as overhead lines or in proximity to high risk features as occupied or fire susceptable structures. All potential hazards should be taken into consideration when choosing site.

Security


Consideration must be given to engage volunteers to act as security between crowd and fireworks. This is most important as sufficient numbers should be approached as security should be provided during show set up as well as the show itself.
