Full Notification

The Marshall County Commissioners with recommendations from the EMA and local fire departments, have issued a "Burn Ban" for Marshall County immediately.

The order declares that, effective immediately, the following activities are prohibited in Marshall County:
1. Open burning of any kind using conventional fuel such as wood or other combustible material, with the exception of grills fueled by charcoal briquettes or propane (charcoal from permitted grill shall not be removed from the grills until the charcoal has been thoroughly extinguished).
2. The burning of debris, such as timber or vegetation, including such debris that results from building construction activities.
Small campfires and fireworks, however are permitted according to Marshall County Commissioners. Only larger fires such as rectreational bonfires, or the burning of wooded debris and/or waste are prohibited by the ordinance.
To report a violation of the burn ban, please contact the Marshall County Sheriff Department.
If conditions improve due to significant ranfall, , the Marshall County Commissioners will rescind the burn ban and again permit the above activities
