- Exactly. With Oregon experiencing drought and Extreme Fire Danger, no one should be using fireworks. Remember the devastating 2017 Eagle Creek Fire? We do.☹️Do your part to prevent wildfire. As we celebrate 250 years of American independence, remember that fireworks are prohibited on public lands. Possessing, igniting, discharging or using any kind of fireworks is prohibited on national forests & grasslands (except in Alaska).
