Fire season has officially been declared for the Warm Springs Reservation. The fire danger level is at moderate. Fire danger indices have been monitored from the weather stations on and near the reservation.

This 4th of July, remember, folks are asked to light fireworks from one of these designated areas: Community Center parking lot, Simnasho Longhouse parking lot, Agency Longhouse parking lot or the Campus grassy area.
