UPDATE: Roads have opened back up for normal traffic. Resources have cleared the scene for the evening. Expect to see smoke over the next 24 hours.

Carlton Fire District is currently operating at a 2nd alarm structure fire on NE Intervale Road in Carlton, with multiple mutual aid agencies assisting.

Intervale Road is CLOSED from NE Hendricks Road to NE Oak Springs Farm Road while emergency crews work to control the fire.

Water tenders will be re-filling tenders from 6th & Main Street, be aware of additional traffic.

Please avoid the area and do not stop to watch or take photos. Stopping along the roadway creates a traffic hazard and can interfere with emergency responders working at the scene.

Thank you for your cooperation and for giving our firefighters the space they need to do their jobs safely.

Today, Carlton Fire District responded to a mutual aid wildland grass fire that burned approximately ½ acre. The fire was caused by an escaped burn pile that was being fully monitored by the land owner.

As we head into an unseasonably warm weather pattern, today's incident is a reminder that fire danger doesn't disappear just because the calendar says October. Without a significant rain event, dry grasses and vegetation remain on the ground, creating an increased risk of fires spreading from escaped burn piles.

Current Burning Restrictions:

-Backyard burning: CLOSED within Carlton Fire District.
-Agricultural burning:OPEN within Carlton Fire District.
-Warming and cooking fires: ALLOWED within a 3 ft designated fire pit.
-ODF-protected areas: ALL burning closed, contact ODF for additional info

Even when a burn pile is being closely monitored, dry conditions can allow a fire to escape and spread quickly. With warmer temperatures in the forecast and fuels remaining dry, we ask everyone to use caution and follow current burning restrictions for your fire district.

Today's fire is a great example of how quickly conditions can change. Please do your part to help prevent unwanted fires and keep our community safe.

Remembering September 11, 2001

This morning at 5:46 a.m., Chief Jech and Carlton Fire District volunteers lowered the American flag at Station 7, marking the moment the first aircraft struck the North Tower of the World Trade Center 25 years ago.

The lowering of the flag was followed by a moment of silence to honor the lives lost, the survivors, and the brave first responders who answered the call that day.

Among those we remember are the 343 firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice. Their courage, dedication, and selflessness continue to inspire the fire service and communities across the nation.

We remember. We honor. We will never forget.

Our Carlton Fire family took the evening to celebrate two of our very own as they said "I do" last night. Some of our firefighters were able to take the evening to celebrate while some remained in town to serve our district. Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Vandehey!

Earlier this week, BR-71 staffed by Firefighters Jack Vandehey and Ben Burge, returned home with Task Force 26 after completing a 12-day assignment.

Early this morning, HB-72 with Firefighters Payton Price and Madi Beier from Lafayette Fire departed with Task Force 59 made up of Yamhill County apparatus led by Chief Tim Jech. The task force was requested by the Oregon State Fire Marshal for an immediate response assignment to the Grasshopper Fire that has been burning on Mt. Hood since July 23rd.

While our crews are helping communities outside our area, know that our command staff and volunteers remain ready and available to respond to emergencies and local incidents here at home.

It takes a team to make this happen. We’re proud of our career staff and volunteers who work side by side with some answering calls away from home, while others remain ready here in our community. Stay safe Task Force 59, we’ll see you back home soon!

Wildfire Smoke, Heat & Fire Danger

Yamhill County continues to experience extended periods of unhealthy air quality, high temperatures, and elevated wildland fire danger. These conditions don't just increase the risk of new fires, they can also impact your health.

If possible, limit prolonged outdoor activity, stay hydrated, take breaks in cool, clean air, and check local air quality before spending time outside. Those with heart or lung conditions, older adults, young children, and outdoor workers should take extra precautions.

As we ask our firefighters to take care of one another during these challenging conditions, we encourage our community to do the same. Looking after yourself and your family helps keep everyone safer during wildfire season. Stay aware, stay cool, and help prevent the next fire by avoiding activities that could spark a wildfire!

Yesterday afternoon our HB 72 crew that initially deployed to Klamath Falls as an immediate response resource but was reassigned as a taskforce to Rowe Creek Complex arrived home. Our firefighters put in 12 long days, they came back a little more dirty and a lot more tired. Great work and welcome home Beau, Talen and Payton!

As thunderstorms rolled into our area, it was all hands on deck this afternoon!

While the skies were lighting up, Brush 71 was working to head out the door with Firefighters Jack Vandehey and Lafayette Fire Ben Burge to join Linn County Task Force #26. They are deploying to Pendleton to assist with firefighting efforts on the Hagen Fire. We wish them a safe deployment and look forward to welcoming them home.

Back here at home, our volunteers did what they always do, they answered the call. Eleven members quickly responded as the calls came in, the bay doors went up, and within moments the apparatus bays were empty as crews responded throughout our district.

Whether it's supporting communities across Oregon or serving our neighbors right here at home, none of it happens without dedicated volunteers willing to step up when it matters most.

We may be a little biased, but we think we have one of the best teams around. Stay safe out there, and if you see our crews, give them a wave!
