NYS Burn Ban in Effect
March 16 - May 14th
The burning of brush is prohibited during this time due to increased risk of wildfires. Some types of fires are allowed during this period:
-
Campfires less than 3 feet in height and 4 feet in length, width, or diameter
-
Small cooking fires
-
Ceremonial or celebratory bonfires
Fires cannot be left unattended and must be fully extinguished. Only charcoal or clean, untreated or unpainted wood can be burned. Additional information on exceptions allowed during the burn ban can be found on the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Open Burning website.
The Speigletown Fire District has no additional regulations regarding prohibited burning during this time. In addition, it is illegal to burn trash year-round!
​
Please remember that if you plan to open burn brush OUTSIDE of the 3/16 - 5/14 Ban, please call Rensselaer County Dispatch BEFORE you burn, otherwise, the fire department will be dispatched and are required to extinguish the fire.
