Lassen, Modoc and Plumas Counties - Burn permits suspended Posted: 23 Jun 2009 05:49 AM PDT Susanville - With peak fire season approaching and the weather getting hotter and dryer, CAL FIRE announces all dooryard burn permits within Lassen, Modoc and Plumas Counties will be SUSPENDED effective midnight June 30, 2009 (July 1, 2009). The dooryard burning suspension (Burn Ban) will continue until formally cancelled by CAL FIRE. Dooryard burn permits will not be issued and dooryard burning is not allowed during this period of time. Agricultural vegetation control burns are still authorized with special permits issued from CAL FIRE and Air Quality. Campfire permits are still authorized in designated campfire areas only. Each year CAL FIRE responds to nearly 1,600 fires started by Californians using equipment the wrong way. Whether working to create a defensible space around your home, just mowing the lawn, or pulling your dirt bike over to the side of the road, if you live in a wildland area you need to use all equipment responsibly. Lawn mowers, weedeaters, chain saws, grinders, welders, tractors, and trimmers can all spark a wildland fire. Do your part, the right way, to keep your community fire safe.
