Recreational burn bans lift in Camas-Washougal, Clark County

Due to the combination of shorter days, consistent overnight humidity recovery and current light rain, the Camas-Washougal Fire Department (CWFD) has lifted the recreational burn ban for the city limits of Camas and Washougal. 

Clark County Interim Fire Marshal Curtis Eavenson also announced he is lifting the ban on recreational fires in unincorporated Clark County effective Sept. 23, due to cooler temperatures and forecast. Under the modified ban, burning yard debris and material from land clearing will continue to be prohibited in unincorporated Clark County until at least Oct. 1, if not longer, depending on fire conditions.
