Decision For: Thursday November 8, 2007 Daily Notes: Poor Ventilation continues. No Burning Please Note: If a recording is listed as CALL IN, growers need to contact Ecology in Spokane at 509-329-3400 Mon-Fri from 8-5 to get scheduled for a burn decision (NOTE: calling 329-3400 outside of M-F 8-5 will reach WA DEM who cannot help with burn call issues). Calling in the afternoon is preferred. It is very unlikely a grower will get permission the same day they first call Ecology. - plan ahead.
