Fire Hazard Moving to High on Saturday

The Fire Hazard is moving up to 4, or HIGH HAZARD, on Saturday. Work in or near the woods that can produce sparks from exhaust or striking rocks (excavating, mowing, milling etc.) must cease by 1 pm and a 2-hour fire watch posted (stay on site to look for smoke). Have water and a tool on site.
Campfires with permits are still allowed, but we urge you to use your propane campfire appliance (does not require a permit) instead if available.
Please be safe and report all daytime smoke columns to 911.
