Planning a Prescribed Burn? Give Dispatch a Call First!

Fire Services & Law Enforcement across Wheeler County kindly asks for your help in keeping our emergency resources available where they’re truly needed.

If you’re planning a prescribed burn, please take a moment to call Frontier Regional 911 Dispatch at 541-384-2080 before you get started.

Letting Dispatch know your plans helps prevent unnecessary responses from our volunteer fire and emergency personnel.

This simple step helps:
• Reduce unnecessary emergency call-outs
• Keep our volunteers available for actual emergencies
• Save time, resources, and effort across our community

We appreciate everyone doing their part to keep Wheeler County safe—plus, it saves our volunteers from chasing smoke that’s already under control!

Please slow down, buckle up, and drive responsibly.
