Warming and Cooking fires have been generating unnecessary 911 calls in the transient camp locations.
Unless there is an immediate threat to surrounding structures, brush, and other exposures, please refrain from calling in smoke at these locations.
These individuals rely heavily on small fires in their camps to cook their food.
Emergency conditions such as high heat days with red flag warnings usually generate a full closure of ALL burning in the area. Please contact your local fire authority with any questions you may have.
Outdoor burning is regulated by the State of Oregon Department of Environmental Quality. DEQ regulations prohibit certain types of burning in selected areas based upon population. Permits are required for any type of burning.
