Is there anywhere I can't burn?

On January 1, 2007, the Washington Clean Air Act banned ALL burning in Urban Growth areas. 

You are also not allowed to have any type of burn within 50 feet of a structure. Additionally, no residential burns are allowed within 500 feet of forest slash.

This includes all incorporated city limits within Grant County. There are several areas within the Fire District boundaries as well, please contact (509) 765-3175 for further burn questions and to inform us of your scheduled burning.
