Summit and Wasatch counties are no longer under fire restrictions except in unincorporated areas of Summit County controlled by the Park City Fire District. Stage 1 fire restrictions remain for those areas.
Utah State Forester Jamie Barnes says even though the state has seen some improvement, conditions remain dry. Only a single spark is needed to start a wildfire.
Stage 1 restrictions prohibit fireworks, exploding targets and open fires except in established campgrounds.
Violating these fire restrictions is illegal and punishable by up to 6 months in jail and fines of up to $1,000.
The restrictions will remain in effect until rescinded by Barnes or Utah Bureau of Land Management.
