Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has issued an Air
Pollution Advisory for northern Jackson County...in effect until 2
PM PDT Wednesday.

Wildfires burning in the region combined with forecast conditions
will cause air quality levels to fluctuate and could be at unhealthy
levels.

Smoke levels can change rapidly depending on the weather. People at
risk include infants and young children, people with heart or lung
disease, older adults and pregnant people.

People can take the following precautions to protect their health:

* Follow local burn restrictions to prevent deteriorating air
quality.
* Avoid strenuous outdoor activity during periods of poor air
quality.
* People with heart or lung problems and young children are
especially vulnerable. These people should stay indoors while smoke
levels are high.
* Use certified High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters in
indoor heating, ventilation, cooling and air purification systems.
