Fire Restrictions Rescinded on BLM Lands

The Bureau Of Land Management has rescinded fire restrictions on all BLM administered lands in Big Horn, Hot Springs, Park, and Washakie Counties.

The decision is based on recent significant precipitation. The public should be aware however, of ongoing year-round wildfire prevention restrictions on BLM-administered public lands in Wyoming, which can be found at: http://www.wy.blm.gov/wy_fire_restrictions/index.htm.
