burn bans
Outdoor flame restrictions
Burn bans are government-issued prohibitions on outdoor burning, typically enacted during dry conditions when fire risk is high.
They restrict activities like burning yard waste, trash, or debris, and may limit campfires and fireworks.
Counties often impose burn bans seasonally: The county issued a burn ban due to drought conditions.
Violating a burn ban can result in fines.
