From Tom Fields
Fire Prevention Coordinator
Oregon Department of Forestry
We are currently facing extreme fire danger conditions in many areas of our great state. Human-caused fires are on the rise, putting human life and property in grave danger. Now is the time to act. Do your part to prevent future human-caused fires. Pay attention to local public use fire restrictions such as smoking, campfire use, off-road driving, debris burning, power saw use, and any other spark emitting activity that could lead to a wildfire. Remember, all fires start small. And with the combination of high temperatures, low humidity and wind, the smallest of fires can lead to large, catastrophic fires. Don’t be the problem, be the solution. Thank you for doing your part in Keeping Oregon Green and Safe.
