Burn ban reference guide

How county burn bans work

A burn ban is a restriction issued by an authority. A weather forecast or map is not a substitute for the order.

Read the order, not just the map

An official map can help you find a reported restriction. The order itself explains the dates, boundaries, activities, and exceptions. Follow the issuing agency’s instructions when a summary and an order appear to disagree.

The county may not be the only authority

A city, fire district, air-quality agency, state agency, federal land manager, or Tribal government may have rules for the same area. Check the authorities that apply to the specific property or campsite.

A lifted ban does not answer every question

Other outdoor-burning rules and permit requirements may still apply. Do not assume that an activity is allowed just because a county restriction has ended.
