Before residents make the decision to open burn, all reasonable alternatives should be examined, such as recycling through chipping and/or composting. All open burning must be conducted during daylight hours, when the Jackson County Open Burning Advisory air quality index is 401 or above, and requires a written permit and burning site inspection from the fire department. All open burning must meet the following guidelines: o Be attended by an adult. o Be located at least 50 feet from the nearest structure. o Maintain a non-combustible perimeter of 10' around the burning area. o Have a water hose on site in a position to reach all sides of the pile. o Piles may not exceed 3 feet in height and 5 feet in diameter. o Be dry material to minimize smoke production. o Burning materials are strictly limited to dry, woody materials only. Refuse consisting of finished lumber, fence posts, etc., may not be burned. o Flammable liquids may not be used to ignite fires. o Burning in barrels is prohibited.
