🔥 BURN BAN IN EFFECT — ROGERS COUNTY 🔥

Effective immediately, the Rogers County Board of County Commissioners has declared a period of EXTREME FIRE DANGER. Resolution 2027-28 was passed and approved September 2, 2026, and runs through September 15, 2026, unless lifted sooner.

This is not a suggestion. It is enforceable state law.

While the ban is in place, it is UNLAWFUL to:
🚫 Set fire to any grass, brush, crops, or wildland
🚫 Build a campfire or bonfire
🚫 Burn trash or any material that could start a wildfire

Conditions right now — drought, no meaningful rain in the forecast, and fire activity well above normal for this time of year — mean one spark can get away fast. What starts in your burn barrel can be in your neighbor’s pasture in minutes.

Please don’t burn. Not today, not this week.

Speeding isn’t a gamble worth taking. You could get a ticket — or much worse.

Don’t push the pedal. Slow down!
