The Carson City Fire Department (CCFD) has announced the start of the Fall 2026 Open Burn, with burning allowed from Nov. 13, 2026 to Dec. 27, 2026, dependent upon permit status and daily weather conditions. To make this a safe endeavor for those involved, CCFD will require a burn permit.
Permits will be available starting Nov. 9, 2026, and can be obtained online at our website, www.carsoncity.gov/fire. Click on the notice for “Open Burn” and it will take you to a form you need to print and have on your person when burning.
Permits will no longer be available in our administrative office on a walk-in basis. The purpose of the open burn period is to provide residents with an opportunity to dispose of accumulated weeds and vegetation that poses a fire risk.
For additional questions or concerns, please call CCFD at (775) 887-2210, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
