Regulated Use Closure Modified

Due
to the extreme fire danger throughout Douglas County, the Douglas Forest
Protective Association has modified the Regulated Use Closure for the general public. 
Effective September 11 at 12:01 a.m., the mowing of dead, dry
grass with power driven machinery will be prohibited on all DFPA protected
land.  The mowing of green, irrigated grass is still allowed.  All
other restrictions under DFPA’s Regulated Use Closure remain in effect and
unchanged.

Other
activities either restricted or prohibited under DFPA’s Regulated Use Closure
include smoking, backyard burning, campfires, chain saw use, off road driving,
and other high risk fire activities.  For more information about public or
industrial restrictions currently in effect, visit
www.dfpa.net
or call the information line at (541) 672-0379.
