Clallam County’s Fire Safety Burn Ban LIFTED

 Effective September 26, 2024, 2024, Clallam County burn ban has been lifted. Recreational fires, residential burns and permitted debris burns are now allowed. 

Urban Growth areas, including Port Angeles, Sequim, Carlsborg, Forks, Joyce, Clallam Bay, and Sekiu, are restricted from outdoor debris burning, through Washington State law. 

Outside the UGA, contact your local Fire District for burning regulations and permit requirements. 

– George Bailey, Clallam County Fire Marshal 

NOTE: The Washington Department of Natural Resources (DNR) still lists the fire risk in Clallam County as MODERATE, so Land Clearing Burns continue to be prohibited.
