𝗜𝗙𝗣𝗟 𝗟𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗟 𝟭 𝗜𝗡 𝗘𝗙𝗙𝗘𝗖𝗧: As of Monday at 12:01 a.m., Industrial Fire Precaution Level 1 is now in effect on ODF-protected lands across Jackson and Josephine counties. The fire danger level remains moderate (blue).

The primary change with this decrease applies to industrial operations. Under IFPL I (one), the limited shutdown restrictions associated with IFPL II are lifted, allowing industrial operations to resume throughout the day. A fire watch is required at this and all higher IFPL levels unless otherwise waived.

Public fire prevention restrictions are not changing with this decrease. Moderate fire danger restrictions remain in effect, including restrictions on the use of power-driven equipment, grinding, cutting of metal and other spark-emitting equipment between 1 p.m. and 8 p.m. daily. Outdoor debris burning also remains prohibited.

Public fire restrictions under moderate fire danger include:

• Open fires are prohibited, which includes campfires, charcoal fires, cooking fires and warming fires, except at locations deemed a designated campground. Portable cooking stoves or firepits using liquefied or bottled fuels are still allowed in areas clear of flammable vegetation.

• Chainsaws, including equipment using string or metal blades, may not be used between 1 p.m. and 8 p.m. During hours outside of this time frame, this equipment may be used but requires that the operator have one shovel and one 8-ounce or larger fire extinguisher at the work site. A fire watch is also required for one hour after each use.

• Cutting, grinding and welding of metal is not allowed between 1 p.m. and 8 p.m. These activities are allowed during hours outside of this time frame only if the work site is a cleared area and a charged garden hose or one 2½-pound or larger fire extinguisher is at the job site.

• The mowing of dead or dried grass with power-driven equipment is not allowed between 1 p.m. and 8 p.m. This restriction does not include mowing green lawns or equipment used for the commercial culture and harvest of agricultural crops.

• Motorized vehicles, including motorcycles and all-terrain vehicles, are allowed only on improved roads free of flammable vegetation. One shovel and one gallon of water, or one 2½-pound or larger fire extinguisher, is required while traveling. All-terrain vehicles and motorcycles must be equipped with one 2½-pound or larger fire extinguisher.

• Any other spark-emitting internal combustion engine use not specifically mentioned is not allowed between 1 p.m. and 8 p.m. Use outside of this time frame is allowed only if the work site is a cleared area and a charged garden hose or one 2½-pound or larger fire extinguisher is at the job site.

Other public fire restrictions that remain in effect include:

• No debris burning, including piles and debris burned in burn barrels.

• No fireworks on or within one eighth of a mile of ODF-protected land. Fireworks are prohibited on all BLM land.

• Exploding targets and tracer am******on, or any bullet with a pyrotechnic charge in its base, are prohibited.

• Smoking while traveling is allowed only in enclosed vehicles on improved roads, in boats on the water and other specifically designated locations.

• Any electric fence controllers must be approved by a nationally recognized testing laboratory or be certified by the Department of Consumer and Business Services and be installed and used in compliance with the fence controller’s instructions for fire-safe operation.

Fire season remains in effect across Jackson and Josephine counties. While cooler conditions have allowed industrial restrictions to decrease, vegetation remains dry and can still carry fire. The public and industrial operators should continue to follow all current fire prevention requirements.

𝘼𝙉𝘿𝙀𝙍𝙎𝙊𝙉 𝘽𝙐𝙏𝙏𝙀 𝙍𝙊𝘼𝘿 𝙁𝙄𝙍𝙀 𝘼𝙈 𝙐𝙋𝘿𝘼𝙏𝙀: Overnight, firefighters built on the progress made during yesterday’s aggressive initial attack, completing line around 100% of the Anderson Butte Road Fire and extending hose along 80% of the perimeter.

The fire is now mapped at 78 acres, reflecting more accurate mapping of the fire’s perimeter rather than additional fire growth overnight.

Fire activity diminished overnight as cooler temperatures and increased relative humidity provided more favorable conditions for suppression efforts. Crews took advantage of these conditions to strengthen existing lines and secure the fire’s perimeter.

Today, firefighters are beginning mop-up operations, working inward from the fire’s perimeter to extinguish remaining heat and reduce the potential for the fire to spread. Resources assigned to the fire today include four Type 6 engines, one dozer, eight 20-person hand crews and six water tenders.

Temperatures are expected to remain warm today, although slightly cooler than yesterday. Aircraft are available to support ground resources if needed, including a Type 1 and Type 2 helicopter.

Firefighters remain ready to respond to any new fire starts across the district while suppression efforts continue on the Anderson Butte Road Fire.

The official cause of the fire remains under investigation.

“Plan for a Resilient Oregon” is strategy to help communities prepare for wildfire, flood, heat, and other disasters.

Today, Governor Tina Kotek announced the release of the Plan for a Resilient Oregon (PRO), a statewide strategy designed to help Oregon communities prepare as disasters grow more frequent and severe.

"Resilience is not the work of one person or one level of government,” Governor Kotek said.

“It requires a comprehensive approach grounded in the lived experiences of those who have faced and endured disaster and reflects the unique needs of each and every community. That is the foundation of the Plan for a Resilient Oregon. As we recognize the six-year anniversary of the 2020 Labor Day fires this week, it is critical that Oregon moves forward with a new vision for resilience that will protect all of us into the future.”

The PRO is the product of more than a year of work directed through Executive Order 25-26, which assigned the Oregon State Resilience Officer to lead an effort to create a plan that identifies and offers funding pathways for strategies to help communities adapt and thrive in the face of increasingly severe climate risks, and to support communities in long-term recovery from climate-driven disasters.

The PRO was shaped by statewide and regional forums, Tribal nations, local governments, researchers, emergency managers, and community organizations across Oregon, including many organizations in Jackson County.

“In the Rogue Valley, we learned the hard way that recovery is not just about putting things back the way they were. It’s about building the relationships, systems, and community capacity that make us stronger the next time something happens,” Matthew Havniear, Executive Director at Jackson County Long-Term Recovery Group, said. “The Plan for a Resilient Oregon reflects what we’ve learned locally, and encourages the state to adopt a full-cycle approach to resilience—one that brings together local government, nonprofits, community organizations, and the people we serve. With the PRO, now Oregon has a plan. Now we need to make the investments necessary to put it to work.”

Yesterday, JCC LTRG staff Matthew Havniear and Tessa Elbettar spoke at the captiol on behalf of strategy 2 the plan, which advocates for resilience networks such as LTRGs and COADs.
