Burning wood, pellets or manufactured fire logs is prohibited “in any indoor or outdoor wood-burning device,” and charcoal can only be used for cooking.
Southern California air pollution officials have issued an alert banning all types of burning through midnight Saturday due to poor air quality.
Burning wood, pellets or manufactured fire logs is prohibited “in any indoor or outdoor wood-burning device,” and charcoal can only be used for cooking in a grill or other “cooking device,” said the South Coast Air Quality Management District.
The alert covers the South Coast air basin, including large areas of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties but not the high desert, Coachella Valley or areas above 3,000 feet in elevation.
