Effective July 1, 2009, Washington Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has raised the fire danger forecast to MODERATE in all ORCAA’s counties. According to DNR regulations, burning is not permitted when on-the-ground conditions reach moderate fire danger. Because ORCAA adheres fire-safety restriction issued by DNR and other fire protection agencies, all land clearing is prohibited as of today in ORCAA’s jurisdiction, until further notice.
For more information about the burn status in your county, visit DNR’s fire safety page here.
