— from San Juan County Fire Marshal Rob Low —
The San Juan County Fire Marshal’s Office in partnership with the San Juan County Fire Chiefs’ have determined that current weather conditions within San Juan County have created substantial fire dangers and that there is a need to enact restriction on outdoor burning to all lands regulated by San Juan County.
This burn ban applies to all outdoor burning, including land clearing, yard debris and recreational fires. The use of gas, charcoal and propane self-contained stoves and barbeques will continue to be allowed under the ban.
