LOCAL BRIEFING Debris burning ends June 1 in Redmond Fire and Rescue District Redmond Fire & Rescue, in conjunction with the Central Oregon Fire Chiefs Association, has announced a closure of out- door debris burning in the area. Starting Wednesday, June 1, debris burning will be banned for the rest of fire season. Backyard fires that include warming fires, campfires and cooking fires are typically al- lowed year-round in the Red- mond area, when used within the guidelines set forth in local burning regulations. Addi- tional restrictions on camp- fires can be placed during the hottest parts of summer to further reduce the risk of wildfire. Check restrictions each time you burn by calling the burn information line at 541- 504-5035. As a reminder for everyone living in Central Oregon, be sure your home has defen- sible space around it to help protect it from potential wild- fire.
