Wildfires commonly occur in the spring during dry and
windy conditions, and open burning is the single greatest
cause of wildfires in NYS. A statewide burn ban is in
effect until May 14. Open burning of brush, limbs and
branches is prohibited. Backyard fire pits, small cooking fires,
and small campfires are still okay, but these can never be left
unattended.
More information is available on the DEC website.
