County Outdoor Fire and Fireworks Prohibition Lifted

The Outdoor Fire and Permissible Consumer Fireworks Prohibition enacted by the Mohave County 
Board of Supervisors on May 21, 2026, for the unincorporated areas of the County, was lifted at 8:00 
a.m. on September 9, 2026, except for elevations above 4,200 feet within the Hualapai Mountain 
Range, where the prohibition remained in effect pursuant to A.R.S. Section 26-311 and Mohave 
County Ordinance 2013-04. 
 
Stage 2 fire restrictions on lands managed by the Arizona Department of Forestry and Fire 
Management and the Bureau of Land Management were lifted on July 20 and 22, 2026, respectively. 
 
The Mohave County Division of Emergency Management issued a determination on October 1, 2026, 
that a state of fire emergency no longer existed for elevations above 4200ft located within the Hualapai 
Mountain Range. This determination was made in consultation with the National Weather Service, the 
State of Arizona, and the Bureau of Land Management, following extensive precipitation associated 
with Hurricane Polo that substantially mitigated the remaining wildland fire threat across much of 
Mohave County.
