    Understanding Burn Restrictions

    Current Spokane Country Burn Restrictions
    - Recreational fires must not exceed 3′ x 2′.
    - Rule burn fires must not exceed 4′ x 4′; if your pile exceeds 4′, visit the DNR Burn Portal to see if you require a Burn Permit.
    - Use only approved fuels: charcoal, natural gas, propane, manufactured logs/pellets, firewood. Firewood must be dry, clean and natural (untreated).
    - Outdoor wood-fueled recreational fires must be a minimum of 25′ away from any combustibles and structures.
    - A person capable of extinguishing the fire must attend it at all times. Completely extinguish the fire before leaving it.
    - Permission from a landowner (or owner’s designated representative) must be obtained before having a recreational fire. The fire may not cause a smoke and/or odor nuisance to neighbors.
    - It is never okay to smoke out your neighbors. If smoke from your recreational fire bothers your neighbors, poses a threat or causes damage to their property or otherwise causes a nuisance, you must put it out immediately.
    - For more information and/or to check for current burn ban and air quality information, visit Spokane Clean Air for Spokane County’s Full Burn Regulations.
    Effective January 1st, 2007 RCW 70.94.743(b) prohibits yard, garden and land clearing burning in UGA’s (Urban Growth Areas) across the state. This means burning yard/garden debris is NOT allowed within city limits regardless of the existence or absence of any other burn restrictions. UGA boundaries can be viewed below.
