Cal Fire has lifted its burn permit suspension, however, Lake County is still in peak fire season.
This lifting of Cal Fire’s burn permit suspension allows limited exemption burns to occur before the lifting of the burn ban.
The Lake County burn ban is still in effect for general open burning.
The burn ban includes all open waste burning, unless an exemption burn permit has been issued.
Any open burning during the burn ban without an exemption permit may be subject to citation, fines and the cost of the fire agency response to extinguish the fire.
Burn restrictions will remain in effect until Cal Fire declares an end to fire season.
Updates will be available at www.lcaqmd.net.
