NOPS: BTU, TGU - CAL Fire Units declare end of fire season

Butte County Fire (a CalFire division) joined the Tehama-Glenn CalFire Unit Monday in declaring Monday November 1 the official end of fire season.

The burn ban in effect since May 2010 was lifted this morning in both CalFire units, and burn permits will no longer be required until May 1 of next year.

The end of fire season depends on cooler weather and the "reduced menace" of wildfire.However, officials still advise people be cautious when conducting burns in both areas.

****REMINDER**** Every fire has the ability to be catastrophic. The wildland fire management environment has profoundly changed. Growing numbers of communities, across the nation, are experiencing longer fire seasons; more frequent, bigger, and more severe, fires are a real threat. Be careful with all campfires and equipment.

"I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer." --Abraham Lincoln
