AQMDs Fire Pit Rules Consider New Options
The agency explores options to reduce wood smoke by setting a minimum distance between homes and fire pits, promoting propane fire use, and enforcing education to ban untreated wood and toxic materials such as warehouse pallets and debris.
Legislators seek details on fire pit smoke tests
Four state lawmakers ask the South Coast AQMD for the staff and consultant names, qualifications, and all testing equipment and calibration records used in the fire pit smoke study. They oppose eliminating beach fire pits in Orange and Los Angeles counties and insist the agency provide the methodology, data, and notes behind the staff report.
