The declaration of a Mandatory curtailment, when forecast indicate
elevated levels of fine particulate air pollution in the region, is

cause health problems. Breathing high levels of pollution from wood
smoke can cause breathing problems (including asthma attacks),
worsened lung and heart disease symptoms, and may even increase
emergency room visits and hospitalizations.

burning appliances during the curtailment period. This prohibition
does not apply to cookstoves and those devices exclusively gaseous-
fueled.
