CAL-FIRE HAS SUSPENDED ALL “OPEN BURNING” WITHIN SANTA CRUZ COUNTY AREAS (THAT ARE SERVED BY THE STATE FIREFIGHTING AGENCY). THAT’S DUE TO THE FORECASTED GUSTY WINDS, AND LOW HUMIDITY. ALTHOUGH “OPEN BURNING” IS SUSPENDED, AGRICULTURAL, LAND MANAGEMENT, FIRE TRAINING, AND CERTAIN OTHER INDUSTRIAL-TYPE BURNING CAN CONTINUE IF CAL-FIRE ISSUES A SPECIAL PERMIT. More information is available at area Cal-fire stations, or at www.fire.ca.gov.
