Annual Burn Ban Addresses Fire Hazards and Air Quality Concerns in Lake County

Lake County’s Burn Ban began May 1, 2025, banning all open green waste burning, with limited exemptions for agriculture, fire hazard reduction and public safety.

The Lake County Air Quality Management District reminds residents that the annual burn ban began Thursday, May 1, 2025. All burn permits expired April 30, 2025, and open green waste burning is prohibited. Exemptions may be granted for agriculture, fire hazard reduction and public safety. Initiated in 1986, the ban helps ensure fire agency readiness and protects Lake County’s clean air. Burning without a valid exemption is illegal and may result in fines and suppression costs.
