• Possession of an open burning permit does not constitute the authority to burn at any time. Burn restrictions and bans may be implemented on a daily basis by the fire authority or the sheriff for reasons including, but not limited to, weather conditions, resource availability, dangerous burn indexes, high wind conditions, RED FLAG DAYS, etc. Call (303) 782-0211 for restrictions prior to burning.
• If changes occur in weather conditions after an open burn has been started, the local fire authority or Sheriff may require the fire to be extinguished
• Should a fire grow out of control, call 911 immediately.
