AS OF DUSK ON MAY 31, 2023 IT IS OFFICIALLY FIRE SEASON AND ALL DEBRIS BURNING IS CLOSED!

Small campfires and barbecues are still permissible unless prohibited by local HOA or community regulations.  You must have a permit for a campfire and have the required fire suppression tools on hand, and only use established and approved campfire rings no larger than 3’ diameter. Campfires must use cut fire wood and/or charcoal briquettes to reduce the chance of sparks and smoke. No grass, pine needles, or brush may be burned.

The La Pine Fire District strongly encourages citizens to continue to FireWise homes & properties to protect them from wildfire. 

If your fire gets out of control, CALL 911 – Remember, Your Fire, Your Responsibility

The La Pine Fire District is within both state and federal forestry departments, and their regulations affect all private, county, state, and local government lands within our district, creating what is called a dual jurisdiction.  Due to fire danger, the following is prohibited, anywhere and anyplace:
