Debris Burn Ban established

The Lincoln County Fire Defense Board and the Oregon Department of Forestry have made the decision to establish a consistent start and end date for the annual Debris Burn Ban in Lincoln County.

Taking into consideration the increasingly dry fuel models year after year, Debris Burn Ban was set to begin annually, June 15, 2024, and end October 15, 2024. Individual fire districts may choose to adjust the burn ban dates based on current weather conditions.

The Fire Defense Board has carefully selected these dates to provide a consistent schedule for the annual burn ban, to allow the citizens to better plan for yard debris burning.
