EPA Lifts the Kootenai Reservation Air Quality Advisory and Burn Ban

Air quality on the Kootenai Reservation has improved and, in coordination with the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) lifted its Air Quality Advisory and Ban on Open Burning for the Reservation, effective immediately. 

Other restrictions on open burning remain in place, including those for fire danger, by Reservation officials or any federal agencies. Before burning always check with your local fire department or appropriate Tribal agency.        

For current burn ban and air quality advisories on Tribal lands, please call the EPA FARR Hotline at 1-800-424-4372, or visit the FARR website.
