COEUR D’ALENE, Idaho — Because drought conditions and historic high temperatures have created very high fire dangers across northern Idaho, Stage 2 fire restrictions will be put in place this month.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) said the local dispatch area recently saw an increase to Preparedness Level 4 (PL4). This means several areas are experiencing large, complex wildfires, suppression resources are spread thin and a majority of other firefighting personnel are committed to wildland fires.
The conditions have prompted Stage 2 fire restrictions to be implemented on the Coeur d’Alene Fire Restriction area, which will start on Monday, July 12, and remain in effect until further notice. These restrictions include all state, federal and private forestland and rangeland in Benewah, Bonner, Boundary, Kootenai, Shoshone and Latah counties. This also includes National Forest System lands in Washington and Montana that are administered by Idaho Panhandle National Forests.
