BLM Utah Fire Restrictions

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) implements fire restrictions to prevent losses from human-caused wildfires brought on by extreme drought, high fire danger conditions, and the increased use of public lands. The BLM asks the public to use their Fire Sense (common sense) to help prevent human-caused wildfires. 

Current Status: 

Fire restrictions are in effect for BLM-managed public lands in West Desert District. The statewide fire prevention order is in effect for all Utah public lands managed by the BLM. Exploding targets and fireworks are not allowed on public lands.

Campfire Safety:

Campfire safety is essential to preventing human-caused wildfires. Visit the Smokey Bear website to learn more about safety procedures and tips to properly extinguish campfires.
