As of 7:00 a.m. on Tuesday, June 27, in Tenerife it is prohibited to make fire outdoors, whether in barbecues, bonfires, stoves or gas stoves.
In addition, the use of any type of machinery or tool that can project sparks, such as brushcutters, welding equipment or cutting radials, is suspended.
Neither is the use of pyrotechnic material allowed in risk areas.
The Cabildo recommends not accessing or staying in the forested areas of the island while the alert lasts.
It also recommends extreme precautions throughout the island territory with any activity that can generate fires, such as the use of tobacco, use of generators, electrical and pyrotechnic equipment.
These restrictions will remain active until the end of the alert situation.
