    The only thing I can think of that would make sense is if this is basically a step below kicking everyone out of the entire area, and it is only used because its less restrictive than forced evacuation.

    Here in the western US there are three stages of fire restrictions, and the 3rd stage means everyone who doesn’t live in, or own property in, the area isnt allowed to be there anymore. Stage 2 is like no smoking anywhere except indoors, in vehicles, or in a cleared area. No using combustion powered equipment outside, like weedwhackers, chainsaws, etc. No campfires even in a campfire ring. Stuff like that
