The City of Okanogan and the Okanogan Conservation District will be holding the second community chipping event to reduce the incidence of burning. Okanogan residents will need to sign up for this service by October 10 athttps://www.okanogancd.org/events. All woody debris must be at the end of driveways or near the road before October 15thwith the material less than 10 feet in length and under 6 inches diameter. This is a great way for people to reduce vegetative debris and decrease our communities smoke exposure.
Omak and Okanogan scheduled the annual Fall Cleanup for Saturday November 2nd. This is a good opportunity for residents to clean up natural vegetation such as leave and branches. Bagged leaves and bundled branches (less than 60 pounds each) should be placed curbside Friday evening, November 1, for early morning pickup by Sunrise Disposal.
