City of South Lake Tahoe Fire Restrictions
Fire season is upon us and many restrictions are now in effect where outdoor burning, campfires, and fire pits are concerned. 2020 started out with the driest February on record since the 1850s, and there is an increased fire danger posed by dead grass and hotter, drier conditions in the region.
Fireworks are not allowed anywhere in the Lake Tahoe Basin. More information.
Updated Fire Restrictions at Lake Tahoe
Fireworks are dangerous and illegal!
Fireworks of any kind will not be tolerated. Yes, that includes sparklers and the “Safe and Sane” fireworks sold nearby.
Anyone caught using or possessing ANY kind of firework could be cited, or arrested, and booked into jail. We will also confiscate any fireworks that we find. Save your time, save your money, protect our community and keep fireworks OUT of El Dorado County.
