ODF Terminates Regulated Closure

The Oregon Department of Forestry’s Central Oregon District has terminated the Regulated Closure for private lands in Central Oregon as of Wednesday morning, but fire season is still in effect.  Much of ODF’s The Dalles unit remains at Industrial Fire Precaution Level 1, which means operators can work all day, with a one hour fire watch required following operations.  All fire tools and water supplies are still required.  While restrictions on campfires and warming fires has been lifted, burn barrels and burning of debris may still be prohibited.  Check with your local fire agency for specifics.  District Forester Mike Shaw says with the weather forecast and current fuel conditions the risk of ignition has diminished, but the public is reminded to exercise caution when recreating and working in the woods.
