BURN BAN INFORMATION:
360-676-6934

BURN BAN OFF

Due to the increase in fuel moisture levels and forecasted cooler temperatures and rainfall, the Fire Marshal’s Office will lift the burn ban for outdoor burning. The burn ban will be lifted at 8:00 AM on Saturday, September 14th, 2024 for the unincorporated areas of Whatcom County.

Please use extreme caution! Vegetation is still recovering from the long stretch of dry weather and is susceptible to fire spread.

Violations of these burn restrictions can result in a minimum $250.00 fine. In addition, if you have an illegal fire that escapes or needs to be extinguished by the fire department, you may be held financially responsible for fire suppression costs and may be criminally charged for Reckless Burning.

All burn types require permitting in Point Roberts. Burn permits can be obtained at the fire station.

Please burn safely, responsibly and considerately for the community.
