PRESCRIBED FIRE ACTIVITY
12-Oct-2011 11:45:51
BMIDC - Precipitation and overcast conditions across Northeastern Oregon and Southeastern Washington continue to keep all units out of prescription for broadcast underburns. The conditions are allowing for some zones/districts to complete prescribed fire operations on higher elevation pile burn units. In addition the weather continues to greatly reduce wildfire risk allowing for lifting of Public Use Restrictions on both the Umatilla and Wallowa-Whitman National Forests along with the an end to Regulated Use Restrictions on ODF coverage areas. As changes continue with the seasonal weather trends, differing areas will come into prescription for completion of controlled burn operations, proposed unit details are available on the forest home pages, please refer to the links under Fire Restrictions.
Specific fire locations and other information can be found on the Incident Information Page.
Industrial Fire Precautions and Fire Danger Ratings are on the Current Conditions Page.
Public Use Restrictions (wood cutting, campfires, etc.) are on the Fire Restrictions Page.
