In accordance with State Law, the 2013 open burning season will begin on January 15th, and end at 4:00 PM on May 1st. (daily hours are 10a-4p. These dates are set by the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) with the objective of minimizing air quality impacts, and are enforced locally by the Fire Department.
You must get a permit from the Public Safety Dispatch Center located at the PD Station @ 50 West St. As a reminder you also must call into the dispatch center on the day(s) you wish to burn to find out if burning is allowed that day. Burning may not be allowed due to many different conditions such as wind speed or stagnant air conditions. The decision to burn is made each day by the OIC at the Fire Department. They make their decision using many factors such as the daily fire forecast:http://bit.ly/aIC4TW .
