The Community Wildfire Protection Plan, CWPP, provides details on the risks, hazards, and valuable facilities to protect in case of a wildfire. Harney County received grant monies from the US Department of the Interior (BLM administered) to conduct this planning effort. Review the materials and see how this effort might help your property here in the County.
The revised Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) is now complete with a variety of end results and real-life actions to be developed to enhance the lives of our residents.
County Burn Plan and Burn Permit. This Burn Plan is required prior to issuing a Burning Permit for all burning in Harney County. Exception: Small debris piles and burn barrels, within reach of an attached and charged garden hose, do not need a Burn Plan but still need a burning permit issued by the County. This Burn Plan is designed to assist the landowner in safely using fire to meet their land management objectives and reduce the threat to life and property. Landowner must notify Harney County Dispatch, 541-573-6028, prior to burning, on day of burning.
