Burn Permit Extension

Posted June 1, 2017 at 5:43 am by

Due to fire risk remaining low here in San Juan County and the wet spring we have had, burning will remain open beyond the May 31 end date, unless posted otherwise, Burn Permit holders can expect burning to remain open for the duration of the month of June for residential permits and permits to be available again in the Fall.

Please continue to contact your individual fire districts by phone before beginning burning and make sure to monitor the fire dangers outlined on the San Juan County Fire Marshal’s website as conditions may change prior to June 30th.

A reminder that campfires will remain to be allowed in the county for the duration of summer unless a county-wide burn ban is declared. Campfires are defined as 2 foot by 2 foot fires contained in a fire ring or bowl and burning only firewood.
