Burn Bans

Each Board of County Commissioners is required by law to notify a number of entities, including OFS, on the same day that any burn ban resolution is passed either placing a ban in effect or canceling such ban (See County Burn Ban Guidelines, page 3).  This website reflects only those counties which have informed OFS of the status of such a resolution.

Note: For historical information regarding county-declared burn bans 
please contact that particular County Commissioners Office.
