Is there any update about if the NPS will allow campfires?

[Sam]

I know there was a ban on fires in Worcester County a few months ago, but it has since been lifted and there are fires on the beach every night now.

The FAQ said:

Q – Can we have campfires?
A – We are waiting for final instructions from the NPS if they allow please
remember do not put anything in your fire other than wood. That means no
cans, bottles or items that will not completely burn. You must extinguish
your campfire or have it attended at all times. Covering your fire with sand
is not acceptable since the possibly of someone walking on hot colds exist
and the NPS does not want the burnt wood left on the beach

So the update to that is yes we can? Above high tide at our camp sites?
