This modification prohibits all outdoor burning. Outdoor burning includes, campfires, bonfires, briquette BBQ’s, residential yard debris clean-up, trash disposal, land clearing, weed abatement and agricultural burning activity. Propane/gas appliances are permitted provided the use is over a non-flammable surface and at least 5 feet from flammable vegetation. The exception to this modification is those campgrounds within the Olympic National Park. The Clallam County Fire Marshal’s office works closely with local fire districts and local fire departments, and strongly urges all county residents and property owners to be attentive to the condition of their properties through proactive fire prevention measures. Maintaining a 30-foot defensible space around structures will help aid fire fighters by creating a zone of protection around your personal property. You can find more information concerning Defensible Space on the Clallam County website www.clallamcountywa.gov/884/Burning-Restrictrions <https://orcaa.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=6ee2311ed611 3859b35978f47&id=c9328e1ee2&e=f7313eba38> The post Clallam County extends burn ban to include recreational fires! <https://orcaa.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=6ee2311ed6113859b35978f47&id=96914b012f&e=f7313eba38> appeared first on ORCAA <https://orcaa.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=6ee2311ed6113859b35978f47&id=8836997de2&e=f7313eba38> .
