Burn permit season is still in effect.
Please do not burn anything under our current conditions. 🇺🇸🚒

Heads up! A Rangeland Fire Danger Statement is in effect for tomorrow. Relative humidity will be pretty low with gusty south winds and very dry fuels/vegetation, leading to elevated wildfire danger. 🔥

🔥🌳 It is wildfire season in Tennessee, which means burn permits are required whenever you burn leaves or natural debris, including hurricane debris.

A few things to note:

🔥 Permits are FREE

🔥 Permits can be obtained online at burnsafetn.org

🔥 If you don't have internet access, you can get a permit Monday thru Friday, 8 am to 4:30 pm local time, by calling 877-350-2876

🔥 Some local municipalities have additional burning restrictions and / or alternative burn permit programs, so always check local requirements before burning

🔥 Links to information about burning hurricane debris can be found at burnsafetn.org

We're happy to answer any questions you have!

Burn permits from the Tennessee Division of Forestry (TDF) are required from Oct. 15 through May 15 every year. During the summer, permits are not required from TDF.

Confidence is increasing in elevated fire danger this weekend. Low humidity and moderate winds mean fires can start and spread easily. Please check for burn bans before any outdoor activity. 🔥
