STAGE 2 FIRE RESTRICTIONS – TENTATIVE<br />
Alamogordo, NM (May<br />
6, 2009) – “We’re looking<br />
at enacting Stage 2 Fire<br />
Restrictions for the whole<br />
forest tentatively effective<br />
on Thursday, May 14, 2009,”<br />
said Jacque Buchanan,<br />
Lincoln National Forest<br />
Supervisor. “Our decision<br />
is based on the recent<br />
lightning-caused fires as<br />
well as our patrols finding<br />
multiple abandoned<br />
campfires. Since the<br />
weather outlook calls<br />
for continued above<br />
normal temperatures, high<br />
winds and continued dry<br />
conditions, we feel it is<br />
necessary to take these<br />
precautions. We want our<br />
visitors to use fire safely<br />
while enjoying their national<br />
forests.”<br />
Stage II Restrictions include<br />
prohibition <strong>of</strong>:<br />
1. Building, maintaining,<br />
attending or using a fire,<br />
campfire, charcoal, broiler,<br />
coal, or wood stove fire<br />
anywhere within the<br />
forest except at identified<br />
campground locations;<br />
2. Smoking;<br />
3. Using an explosive<br />
(including fireworks);<br />
4. Operating a chainsaw,<br />
or other equipment<br />
powered by an internal<br />
combustion engine, is<br />
prohibited from 10:00 am to<br />
1:00 am;<br />
5. Operating or using<br />
any internal or external<br />
combustion engine<br />
without a spark arresting<br />
device properly installed,<br />
maintained, and in effective<br />
working order;<br />
6. Welding or operating<br />
acetylene or other torch<br />
with open flame;<br />
7. And, possessing or using<br />
a motor vehicle <strong>of</strong>f National<br />
Forest System roads, except<br />
when parking in an area<br />
devoid <strong>of</strong> vegetation within<br />
10 feet <strong>of</strong> the roadway;<br />
and except for parking<br />
overnight in Forest Service<br />
developed campgrounds<br />
and trailheads.<br />
People are allowed to<br />
use pressurized liquid or gas<br />
stoves, lanterns, or spaceheating<br />
devices provided<br />
such devices meet the<br />
Underwriters Laboratory (UL)<br />
specifications for safety.<br />
People are allowed<br />
to create a fire ONLY at<br />
identified Lincoln National<br />
Forest campground or<br />
picnic area using the<br />
provided fire rings or grills.<br />
The public and Forest<br />
personnel cannot prevent<br />
all wildfires, but we can take<br />
the lead on federal lands to<br />
reduce the severity and size<br />
<strong>of</strong> wildfires. Conditions this<br />
year are similar to last year<br />
and with no end in sight, we<br />
all should recognize these<br />
facts and ensure we do not<br />
let a wildfire start.<br />
We need everyone’s<br />
help to keep our forest<br />
free from fires for the<br />
duration <strong>of</strong> this fire season.<br />
Never leave a campfire<br />
unattended. Ensure your fire<br />
15<br />
is completely extinguished.<br />
Keep water and hand<br />
tools ready in case your fire<br />
should attempt to spread.<br />
Campfire safety is a year<br />
round concern.<br />
As always, fireworks are<br />
prohibited on all national<br />
forest lands and approved<br />
spark arresters are<br />
mandatory on all internal<br />
combustion engines.<br />
