Fall open burning in Carson City begins Saturday
The Carson City Fire Department will allow open burning, with a permit, beginning Saturday, Oct. 12, 2019 through Nov. 10, 2019.
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 with a valid permit number before burning will be allowed.
Permits must be obtained no less than 24 hrs. prior to conducting an open burn. Permits will be issued on a walk-in basis starting Friday, Oct. 11, 2019 at the following location:
— Station 51 / Headquarters at 777 S. Stewart St., M-F, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
— Online at carson.org/openburn under the Fire Department, Open Burning page
If you apply online, you will also need to download or print a copy of the blank interactive PDF permit form to complete the process.
Please keep in mind, all permits must have a valid permit number in order to conduct an open burn. For additional questions or concerns, please call the Carson City Fire Department’s Fire Prevention Division at 887-2210, ext. No. 2, 8-5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
