bans burning wood, pellets, and manufactured fire logs in any
indoor or outdoor wood-burning device.
* WHERE...The South Coast Air Basin, which includes Orange County andnon-
desert portions of Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino
counties. No-Burn Day alerts do not apply to areas above 3,000 feet

rely on wood as a sole source of heat, low-income households and
those without natural gas service also are exempt from the
requirement.
* WHEN...Sunday and Monday.

problems (including asthma attacks), increases in emergency room
visits, and hospitalizations. No-Burn Days are needed to protect
public health when fine particle pollution levels are expected to
be high anywhere in the South Coast Air Basin. No-Burn Days are
based on fine particle pollution levels that are forecasted for an
entire 24-hour period, which may not be reflected in real-time air
quality maps.

When air quality is poor in your area, limited extended or intense
outdoor activity and remain inside with windows and doors closed. Run
your air conditioner and/or an air purifier and avoid using devices
that bring in outside air like a swamp cooler or whole house fan if
