Twin Falls District BLM and the Sawtooth National Forest will remove the Stage One Fire Restrictions in areas of Twin Falls, Cassia, Camas, Blaine, and parts of Custer counties.

Cooler temperatures, shorter days and recent moisture have lowered the threat of wildfire, and removed the need for open burning restrictions.

However, fire managers would like to remind the public that the accidental start of a wildfire can still be devastating.

They say, please NEVER leave a camp fire unattended, make sure your fire is dead out before you leave it, and never use fireworks, exploding targets or tracer rounds on or near public land.
