Hummm ... access:conditional=not_total_fire_ban ?    Rather OZ specific?

---------
Yes .. I did think of access .. and raised both as suggestions on the 
tagging mailing list.
The sole reply favoured opening_hours.

Both would/should 'work'.

However opening_hours is far simpler to enter. Maybe that is because I 
have more knowledge of it... !

More thoughts?

There is also a seasonal restriction of the use of fire in some parts of 
SA .. October to March IIRC and applied to a general area not just 
National Parks.
I don't see a suitable tag for that .. access open but no fire use 
allowed. One can tag the fire places with opening_hours... but that does 
not indicate to people not the start a camp fire elsewhere.
