PORT ANGELES — Burn bans in Clallam and Jefferson counties have been lifted as of Monday.
Recreational fires, residential burns and permitted debris burns are now allowed.
Urban Growth Areas, including Port Angeles, Sequim, Port Townsend, Port Hadlock, Carlsborg, Forks, Joyce, Clallam Bay and Sekiu, are restricted from outdoor burning through state law.
Residents living outside of an Urban Growth Area should contact their local fire district for burning regulations and permit requirements.
East Jefferson Fire Rescue spokesperson Bill Beezley said that while debris burns are allowed, recreational fires must still be limited to 3 feet in diameter.
