Published 1:30 am Saturday, July 8, 2023

Full burn bans are in effect in Clallam and Jefferson counties.

Both counties have incresed restrictions to all outdoor burning, including campfires, bonfires, briquette barbecues, 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.
