📢STATEWIDE FIRE ALERT REMAINS IN EFFECT📢

Statewide Fire Danger is HIGH today!
The Northern half of the state is classified as a High Fire Danger, while the Southern half has increased to a Very High Fire Danger classification.

We continue to urge everyone to avoid outdoor burning as we remain in drought conditions.

For clarity - this is not a ban on outdoor burning. This is a public notice to increase awareness of the drought conditions. As always, if you are burning over a .25 of an acre, you must obtain a burn permit from AFC's dispatch center.

A statewide FIRE ALERT has been issued by the Alabama Forestry Commission. Anyone who burns field, grasslands, or woodlands without a burn permit, may be subject to prosecution for committing a Class B misdemeanor. Burn permits will only be issued to Certified Prescribed Burn Managers. Please share this post and help us make everyone aware.
