Pueblo County, Colorado Emergency Operation PLAN

Stage 1 Fire Restrictions for Pueblo County Lifted

PUEBLO COUNTY, Colo. (KRDO) -- The Pueblo County Sheriff's Office has lifted the Stage 1 fire restrictions for Pueblo County, effective immediately.

“The recent moisture and cooler temperatures the past few days has dampened the fire danger in the area and as a result, the fire restrictions for Pueblo County are being lifted,” Pueblo County Sheriff Kirk M. Taylor said in a press release.

The restrictions have been in place since April 13.  While restrictions are lifted, the sheriff's office is reminding people to:

  • Never leave a fire unattended
  • Completely put out a fire, including those in pits and barbecue grills
  • Dispose of all smoking material in a safe manner
  • Keep vehicles off of dry grass
  • Clear dead leaves, branches, needles away from your property, including in gutters, rooflines, around decks, and fences
  • When doing a controlled burn, make sure to contact the burn line (719-583-2876) before starting the fire
  • Adhere to the restriction of NO Burning on days when a Red Flag Warning is issued.

However, fire restrictions still exist in some areas of Pueblo County, like the Bureau of Land Management-administered public lands. For more information, please visit their website.

Controlled Burn Line

 Before and after any fire you must call the Pueblo County  Controlled Burn Notification Center at 719-583-2876 and leave a message as  to the address of the burn and phone number in the event of weather or  condition changes.


Before beginning a controlled burn, please read all the details for Rural Controlled Burns on the Pueblo Rural Fire Protection District website https://puebloruralfire.com/control-burn-regulations/
