Outdoor Burn Ban
As of July 1, 2011, outdoor burning within the boundaries of Port Ludlow Fire & Rescue is not allowed.
Outdoor burning is burning of household yard waste, such as leaves, grass, brush and other yard trimmings. It is also burning to clear land of trees, stumps, shrubbery, or other natural vegetation. The burn ban applies to outdoor burning only. Recreational fires are still allowed unless further banned by extreme conditions. Recreational fires are outdoor burning of charcoal or firewood (not debris or rubbish) where the fuel is contained in an outdoor fireplace, barbecue grill or barbecue pit. Recreational fires are for pleasure, religious, ceremonial, cooking, warmth or similar purposes. Fires used for debris or rubbish disposal are not considered recreational fires and are illegal.
The burn ban will remain in place through the month of September and may be extended depending on weather conditions. To see current outdoor burning status, visit our website at www.plfr.org. As always, the men and women of Port Ludlow Fire & Rescue wish you a safe and happy summer!
