Burning closed until October
Posted June 1, 2022 at 8:29 am by San Juan Update
The San Juan County Fire Marshal sends along an update about burn permits.
Residential and commercial burning closed for the season effective June 1. Permits will become available again in October.
Recreational campfires remain open at this time and include attended fires consisting of clean, dry firewood in an approved fire pit up to three feet in diameter surrounded by at least three feet diameter of bare soil, gravel, or other non-flammable material. Recreational fires should be located a safe distance from structures and have a charged hose or 5-gallon bucket of water nearby to assist with extinguishing. Be sure your recreational campfires are dead out by saturating with water before leaving unattended.
