    logo_USFS_USDAFlagstaff AZ (June 14, 2013) – Due to increasing fire danger, the Coconino, Kaibab, Prescott and Tonto National Forests in Arizona will implement Stage II fire restrictions effective Wednesday, June 19, at 8 a.m. These additional fire restrictions will remain in effect until forest officials determine that conditions have changed sufficiently to reduce the risk of human-caused wildfire.

    Stage II fire restrictions prohibit the following:

    1. Building, maintaining, attending or using a fire, campfire, charcoal, coal, or stove fire, including fires in developed campgrounds and improved sites.
    2. Smoking, except within an enclosed vehicle or building.
    3. Discharging a firearm, air rifle, or gas gun, except while engaged in a lawful hunt pursuant to state, federal, or tribal laws and regulations.
    4. Operating any internal combustion engine from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.
    5. Welding or operating acetylene or other torch with an open flame.

    Exemptions to the restrictions include the following:
