Partial Fire Restrictions In Sheridan County Lifted

News – Sheridan Media

[[{“value”:”

On April 13, 2026, Sheridan County Board of Commissioners lifted its Partial Fire Restrictions imposed on March 30, 2026, once again allowing careful open burning.

However, the county strongly advises caution, as weather conditions can change rapidly.

Grass and other light fuels can quickly become a fire hazard when temperatures rise, or winds pick up increasing the risk of uncontrolled fires.

If you plan to burn, please:

1. Notify the Dispatch Center at 307-672-2413 to prevent unnecessary fire department response.
2. Check the weather forecast for any warnings; avoid burning if high winds or dry conditions are expected.
3. Have fire tools, water, and a phone readily available.
4. Do not delay calling for help if your burn becomes unmanageable; early intervention can limit fire spread and damage.
5. Never leave a fire unattended, and make sure it is out and cold before leaving it unattended.

Being cautious with these steps can help protect both property and the community.
