MOUNTAIN GREEN, Utah, July 20, 2020 (Gephardt Daily) — The Mountain Green Fire Protection District on Monday night announced fire restrictions for Mountain Green and all of Morgan, Davis, Weber, and Summit counties and the surrounding areas.

The following are prohibited:
- Open fires
- Smoking in dry vegetation areas
- Discharging fireworks
- Use of explosive targets or tracers
- Cutting or welding in dry vegetation
- Operating small engines without spark arrestors
