Burn Ban

Open Burning / Burn Ban Status

Burn Bans may be declared during periods of impaired air quality, such as inversions, or during conditions of high fire danger.  During a regular burn ban (Tier 1) the only open fires allowed are for cooking or recreation within a fire ring less than three feet in diameter.  An upgraded burn ban (Tier 2) may be declared during severe conditions for air quality or fire danger. In an upgraded burn ban, all open fires (including cooking and recreational fires) and wood stove use (except in homes where they are the primary heating source) are prohibited.

BURN BAN STATUS

Open burning regulations: Fires greater than four feet in diameter require a BURN PERMIT. Visit this website to obtain a burn permit. Swinomish Burn Hotline: (360) 466.2722
