Crooked River Ranch Fire & Rescue will be closing all outdoor debris burning effective at midnight, May 1st, 2026.

Until the closure burning will be allowed, weather permitting, on a day-to-day basis. Call the Burn Information Line at 541-923-4633 to ensure burning is allowed on the day you wish to burn.

This closure includes pile burning, burn barrels, and the use of propane torches for burning weeds or grass.

Campfires may still be allowed on a day-to-day basis. Residents are encouraged to call the Burn Information Line each day to confirm whether campfires are permitted.

With increasingly dry conditions and elevated wildfire risk, we ask our community to take proactive steps now to reduce fuels around your property using safer alternatives. Visit our Defensible Space page for more information on making your home safer from wildfire.

We appreciate your cooperation in helping protect our community and prevent wildfire starts.
