Burn Ban
The Agency of Natural Resources has our regional fire weather forecast rated as very high today. As a result, open burning in the Town of St. Johnsbury will be prohibited until weather conditions change and the fire weather forecast becomes more favorable for safe open burning.
Any responses to unauthorized burning shall result in the fire being fully extinguished by fire department personnel.
