Burning Restrictions in Clallam County

CLALLAM COUNTY BURN BAN

The County Burn Ban is effective July 1 through October 1 of each year, unless conditions warrant an earlier closure. The Burn Ban applies to all outdoor burning except recreational cooking fires. Recreational fires are permitted unless further banned by extreme conditions.

If conditions arise the restrictions may be upgraded to a HIGH FIRE DANGER, this will prohibit all outdoor burning which includes recreational fires. The exception is within the Olympic National Park and other controlled campgrounds.

Note: Recreational fires are limited to 3-feet in diameter and 2-feet in height.  Fires for debris disposal are not legal under any circumstances and are not considered recreational.

Contact your local fire district for more information (see links below).
