The Oregon Department of Forestry, Wasco County Commissioners, and county fire districts are issuing a debris burn ban that will go into effect on Monday, June 2.  The timing of this debris burn ban coincides with ODF’s Central Oregon District declaring fire season, which will also occur on that day.  This debris burn ban restricts the use of fire to dispose of backyard woody material through general property clean up, or from slash created from forestry work, and includes slash piles and burn barrels.  Wasco County Commissioner Scott Hege noted if property owners have work like this to, now is the time to do it.  In conjunction with approving the burn ban, Wasco County Commissioners also approved a personal use fireworks ban beginning on June 2 as well.  Fire officials say conditions are drier than normal for this time of year.  Human activities are the number one cause of wildfire starts in Oregon
