When the governor finds that conditions of extreme fire hazard exist, he or she may by proclamation close such land as he or she may find to be in such condition of extreme hazard to the general public and prohibit or limit burning thereon to such a degree and in such ways as he or she deems necessary to reduce the danger of forest fire. The governor shall declare the end of any such emergency only upon a finding that the conditions of extreme fire hazard no longer exist.
