The city of Centralia is also implementing a prohibition on outdoor recreational fires, because of the fire danger.

The Riverside Fire Authority Fire Marshal, in coordination with the chiefs for local fire districts, strongly urge residents and property owners to be attentive to the conditions of their properties through proactive fire prevention measures.

The restriction in the city begins at 12:01 a.m. tomorrow, as does the same restriction in unincorporated Lewis County.

Still allowed however are liquid gas or propane camp stoves which have on/off controls and don’t utilize briquettes.

The change will remain in effect until rescinded by the city of Centralia.

For further information, contact Riverside Fire Authority at 36-330-9854.
