Spring burning regulations will be in effect, starting Sunday, March 1, 2026, through May 31, 2026. State law dictates that outdoor burning is prohibited in unincorporated areas from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. during March, April, May, October and November.

Elevated wildfire risk and burning restrictions occur in the spring and fall due to the abundance of dry grass, weeds, and leaves on the ground. Gusty winds and low humidity can make a seemingly safe fire burn more intensely and escape control. If a fire escapes control, contact the local fire department immediately.

If you are going to burn outdoors, the ODNR Division of Forestry offers these safety tips for burning debris outdoors:

• Know current and future weather conditions
• Have tools and water on hand
• Never leave a debris burn unattended
• Don’t discard ci******es and other smoking materials outside
• Avoiding open cooking fires or campfires
• Consider safe alternatives for debris disposal, such as composting
• If you burn during unrestricted hours, use a 55-gallon drum with a weighted screen lid

Residents should also check the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency’s open burn regulations prior to any outdoor fire. Food waste, dead animals, and materials containing rubber, grease, asphalt, or petroleum should never be burned. Violators of Ohio’s burning regulations are subject to citations and fines.

Yesterday turned into a day you could do without. I would like to Thank Rosemount FD and Jefferson FD for their assistance and hard work. Deploying 1200’ of LDH downhill is not easy because you have to walk back up the hill then bring it back once you are done with it with ice and snow on it. Trucks had a very difficult time making it as far as they did.
After 7 hours from dispatch to the last hose replaced on trucks we made it home safely.
A HUGE THANK YOU TO TIM STACEY Valley Twp employee for coming to our rescue with a snow plow and grit. We would have never gotten off that hill without your help. Also to TRUSTEE ANGIE MALONE AND STEVE HOWARD AS WELL AS GAHMS CAR AND TRUCK, PETE AND JOHNATHAN.
The worst conditions…..but God saw to it no one was injured and sliding trucks did not roll to the other side of the hill. A sliding Fire Truck makes your heart hurt.
