BURN PERMITS APP
a product of the Western Fire Chiefs Association, powered by Public Fire Safety
Don’t let legal backyard burning turn into an out of control wildfire or generate false alarms, consuming your agency’s valuable resources and putting the community at risk. The Burn Permits App, a product of the Western Fire Chiefs Association (WFCA), powered by Public Fire Safety (PFS), increases a department’s situational awareness of who’s legally burning and supports agency notifications to permit holders – making your community safer.
For community members:
Download the Burn Permits App to access your local burning regulations, review current condition reports, and create/update your own outdoor burn status. Always check-in before you burn, and when questions come up, open your Burn Permits App and easily connect with your local fire agency officials.
