The Idaho Department of Lands is urging residents and visitors to prepare now for Stage 1 Fire Restrictions that will take effect throughout Shoshone County, including all incorporated city limits, on Friday, Aug. 7, due to very high fire danger conditions. 

The restrictions are being implemented to reduce the risk of human-caused wildfires during a period of elevated fire danger. Stage 1 Fire Restrictions will remain in effect until rescinded.
