Natrona County Under Fire Restriction Until Further Notice

"Due to unseasonably warm temperatures, dry fuels and Wyoming’s famous wind, Natrona County is now under Stage One Fire Restriction" wrote the Natrona County Fire District.

This is not a Fire Ban.

This Fire Restriction will remain in effect until further notice.

All burn permits are suspended, and no new burn permits will be issued until the ban is lifted.
