FIRE PERMITS
A FIRE PERMIT IS REQUIRED for any open burning.
Permits can be obtained from your local fire department, your local fire warden, or a Forest Ranger, that has jurisdiction over the location where the fire is to be set.
Any person who engages in outdoor burning that is prohibited by statute or who fails to comply with the conditions of the permit shall be guilty of a class E crime.
The permittee MUST:
- FOLLOW ALL SAFETY GUIDELINES
- HAVE A WRITTEN PERMIT IN THEIR POSSESSION
- ASSURE THAT NO NUISANCE IS CREATED.
The permittee is responsible for the fire, if the fire escapes, and may be liable for suppression costs up to $10,000, as well as any damages caused to other property.
FIRES MUST BE ATTENDED AT ALL TIMES.
NO OPEN BURNING OF RUBBER PRODUCTS, ASPHALT SHINGLES, WIRE INSULATION, TAR, PAINTS, SOLVENTS OR PLASTIC PRODUCTS.
