More Fire Restrictions

The Bureau of Land Management Idaho Falls District, Idaho Department of Lands, Bureau of Reclamation, US Fish and Wildlife Service and the Caribou-Targhee National Forest have issued Stage One Fire Restrictions. These restrictions go into effect just after midnight tonight. With the threat of wildfire increasing and the occurrence of several abandoned and escaped campfires in eastern Idaho in recent weeks, Stage One Fire Restrictions were considered relevant. The intent of the now familiar fire restrictions is to reduce fire starts and provide for public safety. As a reminder, fireworks, exploding targets, and incendiary, steel and tracer ammunition are also prohibited on public lands. Fire managers are asking the public to be extra cautious when spending time outdoors.
