Carson City Fire Department will allow for open burning between Nov. 14 and Dec. 13
The Carson City Fire Department will allow open burning November 14, 2020 to December 13, 2020.
The purpose of the open burn period is to provide residents an opportunity to dispose of accumulated weeds and yard debris. In order to make this a safe endeavor for those involved, the Carson City Fire Department will require a burn permit.
Permits can be obtained online at our website at carsonfire.org. Click on the notice for “Open Burn” and it will take you to a form that you will need to print and have on your person when burning.
Due to the closing of our main office to the public, permits will NOT be available on a walk-in basis and permit numbers will no longer be required. After printing the permit, you will simply need to call our Open Burn line each morning after 8 a.m. at 775-283-4776 where a recording will advise if it is a good burn day or if you will need to postpone burning for another day. This recording will be updated each morning to reflect current burn conditions.
For additional questions or concerns, please call the Carson City Fire Department’s Fire Prevention Division at 887-2210, ext. 7145, 8-5 p.m., M-F.
