CROOKED RIVER RANCH, Ore. -- Crooked River Ranch Fire & Rescue will require registration of outdoor burns when the season opens

"While burning is not currently open, there are new requirements to be aware of before the upcoming burn season," the department said in a Facebook post Monday.

All outdoor burns must now be registered through Before You Burn before burning. Residents can register online or through the Before You Burn app.

When burning does reopen, remember:

- Check current burn status and restrictions

- Register your burn before you begin

- Provide the required burn information

- Burn safely and responsibly

Please remember: registering your burn does NOT mean burning is currently allowed. Always check the current burn status before starting any outdoor burn.

"We’ll share updates when burning opens in Crooked River Ranch," the fire department said in its Facebook post.
