Statewide Level 1 and Level 2 fire restrictions were lifted as of Friday, September 4, according to a notice on the Summit County website. However, local fire district rules remain active in several areas.
Level 1 restrictions remain active within the boundaries of the Park City Fire District and the North Summit Fire Service District. In these areas, open fires are permitted only in approved, permanent fire pits, while cutting, welding, and grinding are strictly prohibited.
Local fire restrictions have been lifted for the South Summit Fire District. Despite these changes, all three fire districts are currently not issuing burn permits.
Fire restrictions may vary by jurisdiction or land management agency. Officials suggest checking UtahFireInfo.gov for specific details and current restriction orders before recreating. Residents can visit summitcounty.info/fire to track fire conditions and sign up for real-time emergency alerts.
